KONGS HELP TO:

There are numerous applications for Kongs throughout your dogs daily routine. The best part is they aren't just a trick that is only useful during the early puppy stages, but are helpful in adult life too.

​

​

​

Provide cognitive stimulation

Exert mental energy in a healthy way

Can help combat separation anxiety

Alleviate teething pain in puppies

Help to create positive associations

Assist with weight management

Provides acceptable chewing outlet.

​

Soak dry food or place wet food inside an appropriately sized puppy Kong. Freeze overnight and give to your puppy just before you leave the house. This will not only provide a chew toy that is soothing on the mouth for teething, but it is also long-lasting, challenging and stimulating for your puppy. It also distracts your puppy from that fact that you've left the house, which may alleviate any separation anxiety. As your dog grows up, this can be replicated in a larger sized Kong for adult dogs.

​

*Note: if in doubt about size, go a size up. Kong's should not be able to fit wholly in the oral cavity.
