Product Description
Kong's exclusive red natural rubber is puncture resistant, super bouncy, and chewer friendly. It is unmatched for resilience, durability, and bounce. Kong satisfies a dog's natural need to chew and also cleans teeth and conditions gums. The thick, flexible walls keep springing back for more! Kong rubber is non-toxic, nonabrasive, non-splintering, and does not get sharp when chewed. Kong toys are enthusiastically used and recommended by veterinarians, trainers, dog professionals and satisfied customers world wide. Made in the USA. For Maximum Safety: 1. Supervise use. 2. Inspect toy frequently. 3. Remove damaged toy. Important Safety Information: No dog toy is indestructible! All dogs have powerful jaw muscles and sharp teeth. Most dogs chew 40 to 60 times per minute with a force of 1,200 to 1,500 pounds per square inch. Kongs are safe, beneficial toys designed by people who know and love dogs, but ultimately, your dog's safety is your responsibility. Every dog is a unique individual and no one can predict how long a Kong will last with your dog. Note: If your dog destroys a Kong in a short period of time, it is probably too small. Regular use of a Kong by your dog will increase jaw strength, so you may eventually need to provide larger red or black Kongs. Supervise the use of toys. Frequently inspect the clean toy under a bright light. Look for damage (such as missing pieces, cracks, separations). Flex the toy and inspect it from different angles. Loose pieces larger than a f

This funny-shaped rubber chew packs a huge play value into a compact package. Legendary among dog lovers for their strength and durability, Kong toys are the answer to a busy pet owner's prayers. Dogs were made to hunt, chase, and gnaw, and denied a way to satisfy these natural urges, they can turn into barkers, diggers, problem chewers, or worse. Recommended by vets and trainers for dogs with separation anxiety, the Kong has a hollow interior that's ideal for stuffing with treats. Use peanut butter or soft cheese like glue to keep biscuits inside, and extracting the contents becomes a "hunt" to keep any pooch happy and busy all workday long. Dogs love the toys' goofy, unpredictable bounce and can chase, fetch, and play for hours. Chewing Kongs even helps promote strong jaws, clean teeth, and general oral health. Often imitated but never equalled, Kongs are made in the USA from a thick, flexible rubber that's non-toxic, non-splintering, and puncture-resistant enough to stand up to even the strongest jaws. This red Tuffy is appropriate for typical medium- to large-sized dogs, from basset hounds on up to some standard poodles; size up (and/or switch to a super-durable black Kong) for aggressive chewers. Regularly inspect your Kong for cracks or missing chunks, and replace worn or damaged toys to avoid a choking hazard. Satisfaction is guaranteed; if either you or your dog aren't happy with your purchase, return within 30 days for a full refund. --Mary Park

 Best Dog Toy Ever! November 9, 2004
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
My Boston Terrier LOVES this toy. It is fun to use as a fetch toy and has an unpredictable bounce. My dog will stand on the couch, throw the kong himself, and runs after it when I am too busy to throw it for him. For a special treat, I put cheerios or dog food in the toy with a little peanut butter and he is occupied for a good 30 minutes trying to get every piece out. When he is in a chewing mood he will gnaw at this thing for a long time. He has never tried to chew on any furniture because he loves this toy so much. We have had this toy for over a year, and it does have some little pieces missing. The manufacturer says you should take the toy away in that case- but I don't think it is necessary. Small pieces will come right out the other end with no trouble!
Excellent toy!
Keeps a German Shepherd Happy January 3, 2005

My German shepherd loves this toy. As both my husband and I work we have to leave her alone for 8 hours a day. I give her a kong filled with treats each morning and often when I get home that she is still working on getting the stuff out. Any toy that keeps this chewing machine occupied for that long is worth its weight in gold!
great for puppies who like to chew November 22, 2005

I have a miniature poodle puppy who eats everything in sight (including some unfortunate trips to the cats' litter box). I bought him one of these and fill it with the peanut butter stuff in a can. It's his favorite toy, or at least I think it is because he loses his mind every time I start to refill it. It's well worth the few dollars (and the price for the cans of peanut butter spray).
My beagle.... January 25, 2006

You know beagles love chewing.
My new beagle who came from a shelter loves to chew. I mean, he LOVES chewing anything he sees!!!
Since my husband and I work fulltime and we have to leave him in a crate all day, Every morning, I stuff low sodium peanut butter and dog treat, and he loves it lick and chew all day! And even after all day chewing, the Kong doesn't break at all.
I also like the Kong bounds and rolls everywhere because of the funny shape and he loves to chase.
This is the best dog toy I've ever got!
Great, durable, educational toy ! March 8, 2007

I had started my new puppy on the smaller, puppy Kong toy when I first got him, and once his adult teeth come through, I switched him to this one. I fill them with bananas, or peanut butter and carrots, or cream cheese, and freeze them, which lasts my dog at least an hour to get through. I'll sometimes fill this with baby food when I am using it as a training treat. What dog doesn't love a Kong toy and this Kong is large enough that it holds more stuffable food inside. My dog loves this Kong toy and so do I!!
