KONG is King!

I have found it; the best dog toy yet! It is called the KONG. Our beloved Bichon, Porter, is a great dog, But he has a whining problem (ever since we had kids). I think it's cause he gets bored & doesn't get the attention from Ross and I like he used to, although the boys play with him SO much.

I read an article about these dog toys called KONGs and figured I'd try it out. It has worked! You stuff some treats inside the rubber toy and it takes him over an hour to try to get it out. It not only keeps him busy but it bounces & rolls all around so he's moving too (not just laying around like he usually does).

Porter never ceases to amaze me. Every toy we have gotten him from simple plastic/ rubber balls to knots, and stuff he chews through and eats the entire thing. (I have a nasty story I'll share another time if the mood strikes me, having to do with a dog toy he ate.) So the Kong is great, it's the most durable dog toy yet.

So if you have a dog, you gotta try this toy- it will totally make them happy!

These are great! My dog would eventually destroy these but they did last a lot longer than normal. The only thing he never destroyed was a large ball made out of the same material. It was basically a rubber bowling ball. I think it was Kong too. They make quality stuff.

You can also put peanut butter in it and watch them lick it out.

Man, we HATE that thing! I actually threw it away the other day. I always felt SO bad giving it to Bubs...felt cruel. She would work on it for HOURS and not be able to get the treat out! She also managed to chew off chunks of the plastic.
