Engage Your Dog's Mind with a Kong

Discover the advantages of using KONG Dog Toys. These food-dispensing enrichment toys, such as the KONG classic range, are excellent for keeping your dog mentally engaged and stimulated. They effectively prevent boredom, calm anxious dogs, tire out high-energy pups, and provide distraction in overstimulating environments.

KONG Stuffing Ideas

  1. Peanut Butter - This common spread is a staple in most homes, easily smear it in the KONG with a knife for a delicious snack. 

  2. Plain chicken - A healthy, filling option for your dog. This high-protein choice will keep your dog satisfied and is delicious. Boiled is best. 

  3. Dog Food - An easy base that can be layered with other yummy ideas or is a great treat stuffed alone. 

  4. Dog treats - Most dog biscuits fall out easily from KONG dog toys, plus you’ve probably got these on hand already! 5. Dog Treats - Why not stuff the dog treats you already have into your KONG? At least you know your dog will love them. 

  5. Apple - Make sure you cut this up before you place it in the KONG, and don’t leave any seeds, stems or the core. 

  6. Carrots - An easy and cheap option that can be cut up or grated and easily mixed with other ingredients. 

  7. Plain yoghurt - Add some additional small dog treats with plain yogurt and pop it in the freezer, this will make it last longer.

  8. Blueberries - Blueberries are a great way to get some antioxidants into your dog’s diet, but proceed with caution. They can stain surfaces, make sure you only give this to your dog when they are outside. 


How to Make Your KONG Last Longer

Freezing your KONG once it’s stuffed with delicious foods is the key to keeping your dog distracted for as long as possible.  Freezing a KONG Classic, Puppy or Extreme turns it into a hard, delicious bone that will gradually defrost to unlock more flavour. Defrosting gradually gives your dog plenty of time to engage with their natural desires to chew, and helps manage anxiety and energy for longer. 


Keep your KONG clean with ease using gentle methods: Hot water and an old toothbrush work wonders, and most KONG products are dishwasher safe. This avoids any worries about your dog accidentally ingesting harsh chemicals.
