How to choose the right size KONG Senior: The size of the KONG toy should be based on the weight of the senior dog, but this is a guideline. For play to be enjoyable and safe, KONG should fit comfortably in your dog's mouth. However, if the entire KONG fits in your pet's mouth, the size is inappropriate. If you are unsure which size KONG Senior to choose, always opt for the larger one. Available sizes: from S to L.
KONG Senior Size: Dimensions KONG height x width cm For adult dogs weighing (kg):
S 7.6 x 4.4 up to 9
M 8.9 x 5.7 7-16
L 10.2 x 7 13-30
What to stuff KONG Senior with: Dog peanut butter and treats, homemade fillings or KONG treats and paste. It can also include wet food, cooked pumpkin, or mashed bananas. Challenge your pet further and extend playtime - place KONG in the refrigerator for 4-6 hours before giving it to your dog.
How to start: Show your dog KONG. Present it in an excited voice. Do not give the toy to your dog right away - let it be a hard-to-get reward for a while. Encourage and draw your dog's attention to the tasty treats inside. Give the toy to your pet.
How to clean KONG: It's simple: all KONG rubber toys can be washed in the dishwasher, on the top rack. Any dried remnants of treats inside the toy can be easily removed with a bottle brush if soaked beforehand. You can use dish soap. Remember: KONG is designed with safety in mind, but no dog toy is indestructible. Watch how your dog plays with the toy until you are sure you can leave your pet alone with KONG. Regularly bend and check the toy for cracks. Discard worn and damaged KONGs immediately.
Tip: For a puppy, KONG Puppy is a better choice. For a destructive dog, choose KONG Extreme made from very hard rubber.
