There’s a method for KONG stuffing that helps dogs make the most of their enrichment time. You want to create a KONG that’s challenging enough to keep your pup interested, but not so difficult that he or she gives up. You might find yourself making some weird combos — but don’t worry, your dog will love it. Dogs have weird palettes to say the least; it’s not uncommon for dogs to eat tissues and poop. That’s all I’m saying. If you had to choose between green beans mixed in frozen broth and a used tissue what would you eat? How to Stuff a Kong For stuffed KONGs with liquid ingredients, I’ll usually store the KONG upright in an empty dog food can to prevent any messes. Keep in mind: The ingredients you use to stuff your dog’s Kong will add extra calories, in addition to their regular food. Therefore, to avoid overfeeding, you should adjust their rations accordingly at regular meal times.

This isn’t usually an issue for most KONGs, since there is usually natural air flow, but when using liquid like beef broth, it’s best to use a straw to keep an open stream of air. I don’t know what I’d do without our Kong; it’s the easiest way I’ve found to keep my dog occupied with minimal effort. It’s a nice and simple way to keep your dog busy — and what dog doesn’t want some homemade PB Applefish of their very own?
