Kong fillers

Hello

I was wondering what all you people fill your Kong toys with and what size of Kong you got? i looked at the manual thing which went it weight and dog type, there was no staffy so i got bull terrier size, because he is only 7 months and massive already i got him an extreme black one in large and seems a good size

cheers

I fill darcy's with peanut butter, sweet potato, carrot, chicken & rice not all at the same time though

do you completely fill it then freeze it or something?

I have the xl black kongs and fill them with raw mince and meat chunks and then freeze well

Yeah fill & freeze

thanks guys

Rocky has the extreme one I think it's called the black one.

They can be filled with virtually anything (OK within reason) and either frozen or eaten straight away.

Never got Max one of these untill about three weeks ago when he was still suffering with his toe, the first time was ok (stuffed a Dentastick in it), the next time he had it he ripped a chunk of it, then the third time an even bigger chunk ... cant really let him have it now

I soak a bit of his kibble with water and mix with a little natural peanut butter. He's only 12 weeks so I have a medium Kong. He hasn't managed to get the hang of it yet but has fun trying!

I fill mine with treats, chicken and rice, and watered dry food. Sometimes freeze, not all the time though.

Most days we put peanut butter mixed with some of her dry kibble and then freeze it! We also put treats or chicken and rice! Not all the time though only as a special treat on occasion! She goes crazy trying to get everything out and it keeps her occupied for at least 20 minutes!

I cook and mash a sweet potato then mix in a tablespoon of peanut butter.
Bacchus gets his every night last thing when he goes to bed, only occasionally frozen.
If you use kibble make sure it's subtracted from his daily ration to avoid him getting over-weight.

In summer I make a vegie and chicken broth/stock left over from her dinner or chicken, veg and rice. She loves them and it does keep her busy!

Some great ideas- Cheers everyone!

ooh good idea, i tend to use it as a distraction when im at a cafe etc so use peanut butter, primula cheese spread or sandwich paste or at a pub the other day he had gravy soaked pastry off my pie  that was a treat though

Theres some good ideas here!

I use peanut butter, honey, mashed banana, frozen meat chunks, cheese spread and mini bakers treats

Bought the Puppy kong last night for Cooper, the big blue one, filled it with wainwrights kibble and melted puppy buttons all mixed together - stuffed it, put in fridge and he literally was interested in nothing else when I gave it to him - he hardly got anything out of it but the concentration in trying was amazing - Ive never seen him so focussed!

Thats good you will be thankful he likes his kong more than your new shoes do you mash the kibble or keep it pellets just? sounds like a might try it as Boss isnt the biggest fan of peanut butter.

I've just prepared a Kong for Rocky with his kibble, some water and chopped carrot with a little peanut butter. Just popped it in the freezer for him to have later.

Im just swapping over from pets at home to wainwrights so Ive got both here so just kept them whole (pets at home bits are larger and wainwrights are small tiny pellets). gives a good mixture and textures
