    Thanks for your video. I've seen others put meat in a Kong and then freeze it, but my dog just isn't interested in that. Now I get it, starting with something that hard might make him lose interest and confidence right away. I've decided to go buy a jar of peanut butter today!

    • @EverythingDog
      @EverythingDog  9 місяців тому

      Think of Kongs as a puzzle. Start easy with lots of quick success for your dog. GRADUALLY, make it more challenging. Be sure he/she likes peanutbutter. (Not all dogs do!) Also, you can use cream cheese, wet dog food, anything that will stick inside. Let me know how it goes.

    I have a new rescue dog that I'm desperately trying to keep entertained. She bores quickly and is really innovative at finding new "toys" around the house (e.g. remote control, laundry items, books, her bed ...) I love the ideas you have provided here to keep her interested in her Kong over time. Thank you! 😊

Had him 6 days and he can already sit, paw, leave it is hit or miss, started him crate training yesterday and leash training today, he doesn’t like the leash much yet but loves the crate to play in with some positive reinforcement!

      It really depends on how long you want/need him to be busy and of course, if it's too small, he may chew it. I think you'll be ok with either or one of each. You could have some kongs in the freezer ready for him. Good luck.

      The color of the kong determines how soft or hard it is. Puppy Kongs tend to be small (obviously) and light blue or pink and soft. You can certainly start with these, but as the puppy grows be sure to adjust the size of the kong.

    Should I get medium or large size for 2 months old lab puppy?

    • @EverythingDog
      @EverythingDog  2 роки тому +1

      You could get a medium now knowing you'll need the larger one as the pup gets bigger. Or you could just buy the larger one now. Your puppy may not be able to pick it up, but he can learn to roll it around. Have fun.

      Larger than you think you need. The biggest mistake people make is getting Kongs that are too small. I'd get him/her a large

      Hi Pia. So glad you enjoyed the video. it's been a while, but the kongs were large and maybe larger! Regardless, get one bigger than you think you need for your pooch!

    Does Kong go in dishwasher to clean?

    • @EverythingDog
      @EverythingDog  Рік тому +1

      Yes it can. If the dog doesn't clean it all out we also use a bottle brush to scrub as needed.

    How long should I use only the kibble before introducing some peanut butter?

    • @EverythingDog
      @EverythingDog  Рік тому +1

      Laura, there is no set time, it really depends on your dog's ability to work for food. If he's easily frustrated introduce the peanutbutter (ore cream cheese) gradually. Once he's a champ, freeze them and/or put in other boxes. Have fun with it.

    My puppy has been having a hard time eating his hard food once he came but at breeders house he ate it fine, do you think using a kong will help him to eat more? If i add peanut butter or something?
    I want him on a schedule also but he never eats when I put the food out. So i have been letting him approach his food whenever (which is not good)

    • @EverythingDog
      @EverythingDog  Рік тому

      Shanttal, depending on the age of your puppy, you'll have to be careful what you "stuff" it with. You don't want to upset the pup's tummy. Wet dog food works, whipped cream cheese used lightly. A kong adds a level of challenge because we are asking the dog/puppy to use his brain to solve the puzzle. I would leave the food availabel to the puppy for 15-20 mintes at the longest, then pick it up until the next feeding. Dogs will not starve themselves.

    • @ambitiousbeauty1013
      @ambitiousbeauty1013 Рік тому

      My dog is the same way. I let his hard food soak in water to get soft. I let it soak in a big mixing bowl. Then I drain it and smash it up with a potato smasher. Hard food makes my dog throw up. He's been doing fine with his food being soaked in water and made soft. I keep it in a big container or Ziploc bag in the fridge.

    Is it still fine if my 8 week old puppy has regular small kong instead of a puppy kong?

    • @EverythingDog
      @EverythingDog  2 роки тому

      Aiden, Absolutely. Two safety issues. 1. Be sure the Kong won't be a choking hazard. Sometimes dog owners buy a small puppy kong, but never throw it out and replace with a larger kong even when their dog is full grown. 2. A larger kong will allow you to stuff it with more yummy food!

      Hey there, yes dishwasher safe, or we wash by hand using a baby bottle brush. And if the dog completely cleans it out it's even easier.
