im just worried that the dog could swallow the kong toy if its a small size and i dont want replies saying "get a bigger one"

[eletendre1]

They make them in different sizes for that reason. They make them big enough for polar bears. Seriously, if you go to most zoos you'll see giant kong toys in with the bears. If they make them for polar bears I'm sure you can find one for your dog.

Kongs are great! But make sure you choose the appropriate size. You do NOT want you dog to get frustrated with the song and attempt to swallow the entire kong. The Kong shown in the video is inappropriate for this size dog; as you can see the kong is big enough to swallow the enitre kong; you don't want to come home and find a dead dog. Make sure the Kong is large enough not to be swallowed.

Hardly any bad dogs, but plenty of bad owners.

That looks like a really cool.

My German Shepherd is far more enveloped & entertained with bully sticks than he is with the kong toy. I do think the kong toy is lovely but doesn't keep him occupied nearly as long as a bully stick which enchants and engrosses him. Also, you couldn't pay me to fill it with the crap that is in the kong cheez whiz type filler that is sold. I'd rather freeze a mix of healthier treats. I feed my dog Innova and am not about to feed it the junk that is in that tin of spray "food". Just me.

@nataliawasilewska97 : they sell a dishwashing type brush that is shaped accordingly and especially for the toy. I ended up using the brush to wash the dog's dishes with as he hasn't enough interest in the kong toy as he does in Bully sticks.

@bobskmix eletendre is a well respected trainer, and his videos are very helpful to a lot of people on here. It does surprise me that he didn't decide to delete this video. Clearly, he made a mistake... or just overlooked it. Maybe he was aware the Kong was too small, but didn't have a Large one handy for the video. Even so, it's going to confuse a lot of people who are viewing. Mistake for him to not delete this video. He must've seen all these replies by now.

you wlll always get a negatve reply... as per below..... if you think its to small for your dog... then you would just buy the bigger one.... ? ?  simple !!!!

Kong toys are great, just make sure you pick the correct size for your dog. They make the extra tough black ones now for intense chewers or really big dogs. Keeping them clean is something you have to do as well. I use cream cheese in my dog's Kong. you have to clean them well after that.
