Understanding Kongs

Hi guys

I know loads of you just love Kongs, almost as much as your dogs

Not actually having bought one yet I am trying to understand how the concept of the kong works, and what you can actually put in it - please could you let me know because I'm confused. I'm seeing that you can freeze them - according to an ice cube post?

How do they actually get the food out of them - and I'm guessing they must be easy to clean because do you also put wet food in them as well - sorry for the ignorance but just don't understand how it works.

Thanks for your help.

have a look there that might help if i understood you right

Thanks Fred...they look very hard to clean

Alright can I ask DW kong lovers what you like to put in your Kong - to get an idea of what can be put in their apart from Liver paste and dried food?

Thanks

Here you go Ingrid: http://www.takingthelead.co.uk/2/Hea...g_stuffing.htm

Look up Kong recipes on Google - lots of ideas

Use a bottle brush & very hot water to clean.

Beware of leaving a stuffed Kong, or one that has not been cleaned out, in the garden as the food debris will attract wasps and can result in a stung tongue

I use a normal washing up brush to clean Teagan's!

Things I put in hers.....banana, yoghurt, cottage cheese, normal doggy biscuits, meat etc

Do you mash up the banana or just slice it in, do you squeeze lemon juice on it so it doesn't go off, or does it not matter - sorry about all the questions just trying to work it all out.

I use some of my dogs dried food mixed with some natural live bio yoghurt or cottage cheese or tuna and I freeze it - it take them a bit longer to get it all out

I usually mash up the banana, and mix yoghurt in with it!
I put it at the bottom of the kong (But I fill the hole with a biscuit first, so nothing falls out!).

Tnen I put other things in, in layers.
Ohh, I forgot to write cheese!

Then I put it in the freezer, usually over night, and give it to Teagan when I go out!

Thanks Hevvur

Thank you Stephanie
