Product DescriptionMedium, Puppy Dog Toy, Designed Specifically For The Needs Of Growing Puppies, Made Of Our Exclusive Soft Teething Rubber Formula Yet Retains The Strength & Durability Of Our Original Toys.
Amazon.com ReviewEverybody loves puppies--until they chew up your shoes. It's not completely their fault: the little scamps are driven to ease sore gums and try out developing teeth. Made from a special rubber formulation that's more flexible than regular Kongs, these puppy toys make an excellent substitute for your favorite pair of Manolos, soothing teething pains and encouraging healthy mouth and jaw development. They also help puppies learn the appropriate way to channel chewing urges--an investment that will pay off over the entire lifetime of the dog. Just like big-dog Kongs, these beehive-shaped puppy chews have a goofy, unpredictable bounce for hours of chasing and fetching fun, and the hollow construction is ideal for stuffing with treats to keep puppies busy while owners are away. For a cool (though messy) treat to soothe painful gums, seal one end with peanut butter, fill with water or broth, and freeze.
This toy is appropriate for small- to medium-sized breeds like border collies and springer spaniels. Puppy Kongs shouldn't be used until a puppy is weaned; when his adult teeth come in at around 6 to 9 months, size up to a red or black adult Kong suitable for your dog's size and chewing habits. Regularly inspect the 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
Decomposing (Rating: 1 out of 5) After just two days of use the rubber started to break down and get sticky. Not very well made I only wish I could give it zero stars.
Kongs are overrated, says puppy... (Rating: 2 out of 5) Frankly I don't understand the hype about these toys. I get that they're practically indestructible & you can put stuff inside them. But my puppy has shown no interest in this thing at all even though he loves chewing on practically everything. We tried putting stuff inside, and he successfully licked it out in about 5 minutes, but no chewing occurred. This & the nylabone seem like things humans want their dogs to like more than things dogs actually DO like. oh well.
FYI: this puppy version is significantly softer than the adult version so probably better to stick with this for a puppy. (still seems pretty indestructible)
Good and kept him interested (Rating: 5 out of 5) When I bought this for my eight week Golden puppy he really liked it. It didn't last him to long because it got to small for him really quick. It kept him entertained well.
