Kong Classic Kong Dog Toy - Ideal for Average Chewers Dog Chew Toys at Pet Mountain

On April 5, 2013:
Just bought the small one for my mini dachshund she loves it.

On December 20, 2012:
Was introduced to Kongs by dog loving friends when I got my first dog 3 months ago. They are simply awesome. Stuff them with peanut butter or wet food and enjoy some peace while your dog goes nuts with it in a quiet, controlled way.

On May 24, 2012:
This one is a little small for a medium to large sized dog - I think I should have gotten the bigger one... but regardless this is the same quality as in the store but much cheaper!

This is my second Kong with my current dog (a bored husky/lab), the other is still in use, but I found some advice from a dog trainer that mentioned mixing half dry dog food, and half wet dog food, and stuffing the Kong with that, and putting it in the freezer. The result is (apparently) a yummy cement stuffed Kong. I give him one when I head out to work, and he's usually still working on it when I get home. Which means: less destruction to my house. I needed an extra (and might still buy more) so I wasn't doing my Kong stuffing nightly.

My dog loves these Kongs. They seem to be the only thing he hasn't chewed up. No mess.

On October 7, 2011:
The Kong classic and the Kong ball are the only toys my 4 pit bulls can not destroy within minutes. I don't even have to put treats in them they just love to chew on these things non stop. I'm so glad I found Pet Mountain they are so much cheaper then Petco or any other place that sells these toys. I paid for standard shipping they were at my house in 3 days. I am very pleased with the service pet mountain has to offer. I highly recommend ordering products from pet mountain.

I love using the Kong, especially when I have to leave my dog in the car because it keeps him occupied and from chewing up seat belts. I bought the Kong stuff'n liver treats and my dog loves them! I like them because they're all natural. The Kong is a great toy because it's non-toxic (unlike a lot of things he chews on). It's safe, clean and durable too! And I think they should upgrade the Kong and make a Kong for dogs 8-10 years with teeth problems, and it should be the xxl and have different and new colors like white, green, orange, dark blue, clear, and brown, and pink as well. And a rare limited edition Gold one too! And they should have eco-safe Kongs so thanks for reading this! bye, Juleon and Sarah!

A great way to keep dog occupied as you pull out of the drive. Stuff some dog food kibble, seal with a dab of peanut butter and they are so happy.

Have been using Kong toys for years. Great toy. Gives your pup something to do, helps with separation anxiety,… I just bought a BUNCH of these for our local animal shelter – thank you for offering a lower price and free shipping.

On March 3, 2011:
I planned to feed my miniature poodle with it but the Kong I bought doesn't have enough volume inside to hold a full feeding. I find nothing wrong with the product or service, any fault was mine.

On March 2, 2011:
We have a 7 month old Boxador who gets into EVERYTHING when we are not home! We heard that dogs are the most destructive within the first 15 minutes of their owner leaving home and if you give them something that occupies them during those "precious moments", the chewing of YOUR items would pretty much go away. So, after her chewing up SEVERAL pairs of shoes, the kids video games & pretty much ANYTHING she could get a hold of, we decided to try out Kong Brand Toys. She LOVES this Toy! The first few times of giving this to her, she still got into a little bit of trouble. But, now she has realized that right before we leave she is going to get her special treat and there hasn't been anything chewed on recently (hope I am not jinxing it). LOL

On February 16, 2011:
My dog loves to chew this, lick peanut butter out of it, try to get treats out of it, and play fetch with it. It's such a great all-around toy! It can be a chew toy, a treat, a bouncy ball for playing fetch...Every dog deserves one of these.

On January 29, 2011:
We found this product to last and last with our dog. This dog has destroyer lesser products in minutes.

On November 3, 2010:
My dog is a big fan of the Kong. Carries it around in her mouth all the time, begging for me to fill it up when it's empty. Lots of times, when I put the peanut butter in there, I have to squeeze the small part to move the contents around because she can't reach what's at the very top with her tongue.

Shortstop is now on his sixth Kong classic. He prefers the small red classic. I have purchased the tougher black Kong but he still crews through at the same rate. He brings his almost chewed Kong to my attention and stops chewing or playing with Kong until I replaced it with a new one. I will order on line from this moment on to save the pet store markup on this product. It's a pleasure to see him enjoy this product. Sincerely Bob Brown

On October 5, 2010:
I searched all the websites that sell dog supplies and this is by far the cheapest place to buy Kongs. I ordered 2 Large Kongs as well as a Large Senior Kong. I received my entire order within a week and the best part was the shipping was free. This is my new favorite place to shop for my dogs.

On September 6, 2010:
Got this for my cattle dog...he is a power chewer and has been using this one for over a month without ANY DAMAGE!!! He chewed this for hours and hours and the toy hasn't had any adverse effects! Would recommend this to anyone with a chewer!

On August 20, 2010:
Baxter is pit/lab mix...this is the 1 and only toy that he will chew to pieces...Baxter loves the KONG

On August 11, 2010:
Pet Mountain by far had the best price on large Kongs. I usually buy from Amazon but dug in and found this site. Delivery was fast, dog is chomping away, all is well.

On August 10, 2010:
I have used kongs for years, they last a long time for all but the most aggressive chewers. Ours will disappear somewhere in the yard before the dogs destroy them.

On July 1, 2010:
My 4 pound Morkie LOVES his kong toy. The toy has circular 'rings' so if you roll it on the floor, it just goes in a circle. Jack loves catching it and chewing on it. When I fill it with peanut butter, he will lick and lick until it's as clean as a whistle. I would tell any dog owner to buy a kong because whether its filled with treats or not, it can be enjoyed just the same!

On June 22, 2010:
My beagle is such a stronger chewer and typically destroys his toys within the day. This is the only thing that has lasted!

On June 17, 2010:
Lab mix 55 pound very heavy chewer. Loves her kong toys. She spends hours chewing and tossing her toys, only the kongs have withstood her use/abuse.

On May 19, 2010:
I was a bit worried about spending more money on my gang, they chew up firewood and rocks but these X-large Kongs have been holding up great.

On April 29, 2010:
For months I had to deal with my Maltese having separation anxiety issues when I left for work. I would always come home to a messed crate (I was told dogs don't mess their beds, so this concerned me). I purchased the Kong toy and she stays content for hours with this. I only allow her to have it when I'm gone; when she is in her crate. It has helped so much. I highly recommend this to people who have dogs with separation anxiety issues! She loves it.

On March 25, 2010:
My boxer loves this toy. It keeps him very entertained and amused trying to get the treats out. A definite must for all dogs.

On February 17, 2010:
Items were shipped fast , product was as advertised

On November 27, 2009:
At first I loved the Kong toy for my toy poodle, stuffing it with peanut butter and cookies would keep him busy. However the rubber on the inside of the Kong is disintegrating/dissolving and I am going to have to throw it away, I believe the peanut butter is the cause of this so be careful and check your Pets' toy frequently.

On November 26, 2009:
I have three AmStaffs (pit bulls) they all LOVE their Kongs. Two of them play for hours with theirs and my one female takes hers every where. After about month I start to find little pieces they have torn off but this is the only toy that lasted for more than 5 min.

On November 19, 2009:
My pups went nuts over all the great stuff I bought at great prices with speedy delivery. The classic kong dog toy is the best thing I've ever gotten for them. It's strong and seems very durable. It keeps them busy for hours. Thank you, I'm glad I found you on the web!

On November 17, 2009:
I have 3 one-year-old Pit bulls, and this toy is the only thing that stands up to their chewing.

On October 20, 2009:
Pet Kongs were great and much cheaper than any pet store! Fast shipping. The dog's are happy so we are happy

On October 20, 2009:
I bought this product and 3 Kong treat products for use together. The Kong toy was easy for the dog to carry in his mouth, and to hold it with his paws to eat the Kong treats from the opening. He would throw the toy in the air and then grab it and eat the treats out.

On October 17, 2009:
We are on our 2nd set of two Golden Retriever dogs and have used the large black kongs for years. I estimate we have gone through 8-10 Kongs over 20+ years. If a Kong wore out, it was usually from biting for the cookie inserts at the larger end hole. But I just noticed that our 2 most recent Kongs have split at the seam between the largest ring and the middle ring. I estimate that I have had these Kongs for only 1- and 2-years. Since I have never seen this split and it seems like very premature wear compared to all of our other Kongs I emailed the company for a replacement. I got " Sorry- we only have a 30 day guarantee". Thanks a lot! I would think a company would take a look at the circumstances and provide a replacement for an obvious seam failure, when the product looks new? Has anyone else seen these seam splits recently? Is the company now making a cheaper product to save money in this economy? Or perhaps they are trying to make a product with planned obsolescence so that they can sell more kongs more often?

On October 6, 2009:
For years , I have used kong dog toys - usually the classic small - for my senegal parrots. They are powerful biters and need toys they can destroy but not in 2 minutes! They LOVE these!

On September 23, 2009:
My dog LOVES his red kong! He knows the word, "toy," and if you ever say it, he'll go looking for his kong. He'll chew on it for hours & fetch it for hours! He takes it with him everywhere he goes, he even carries it in his mouth on his walks. If you haven't gotten one for your dog, you SHOULD!

On August 22, 2009:
my rotts had this and were always chewing on it then i got cocker spaniels and it lasted thru there time playing then i got a pitbull and its still working 19 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On June 16, 2009:
I just threw away 2 of these expensive toys. We've had both the red, Classic Kongs and black, Ultra Kongs for about 3 years and our standard poodle LOVES them. I noticed all our red kongs started to get sticky around the ends though. Our dog is not a strong chewer, and he only uses them inside so I'm not sure how this happened. It was like the rubber was melting and gooey! What a mess! It got all over his white fur, around his mouth, on his paws and on my carpet! I had to use that Goo-be-gone stuff to get it off the floors. As for our dog... an early buzz cut was the only way to get it off him! The black, Ultra Kongs don't seem to have this problem and are well worth the additional cost if they'll last longer and won't make a sticky mess! YUCK!

On June 7, 2009:
We got a King Kong for our dog 10 years ago. One day after she had it for many years the kong was lost in our yard. 2 years ago she passed away. BUT last month our new puppy came running into the house with the 10 year old Kong that had been lost so many years ago. It is his favorite toy. It is the only one that he can not destroy. Even the sun could not damage it. It came back faded on one side from the suns rays. But after our new dog chewed on it for a few days that even went away. I was told that our local zoo uses Kongs for some of the larger animals.

On April 16, 2009:
My dogs love this toy, I just stuff it with some treats and peanut butter and they are occupied for hours! Before I got this toy they would sneak off and chase the cats or eat the cat food or worse eat the cat litter! Now i have no problems!

On October 25, 2008:
Our small rat terrier mix destroyed toys in a few days. That was until he was given a red Kong toy. Buddy has been chewing on that toy for three months. There is not even a tiny tooth mark. This little 15 pound bundle of excitement can destroy most toys in less the 48 hours. We nominate the Kong toy as the best toy any canine owner can purchase. The toy was a gift from my brother and sister in law. What ever they paid for it was well worth the cost. Doubt very much if any dog can damage a red Kong toy. It should be the last toy you have to buy. Because dogs are animals and not small children they instinctively bury their toys. So keep a spare Kong toy just in case. Thank you for solving a doggie problem that was money down the drain buying other dog toys.

This is THE most amazing toy we've ever had! It is indestructable and our dog loves it. It fills her need to chew while challenging and rewarding her at the same time.

On November 6, 2007:
I have a 3 year old Dobbie. He destroys EVERYTHING! Not this!!!! Great product.

On October 22, 2007:
Kong products are the ONLY dog toys that my lab cannot destroy. She chews every other toy out there into tiny pieces but she can't destroy the Kong (believe me she has tried!). If only other dog toy makers used this material I would have saved a lot of money!

On October 13, 2007:
I'm a dog and here are my thoughts...

Advantages
- A fun way to get additional treats
- Strengthens tongue muscles
- Keeps teeth clean
- A healthy alternative to chewing on furniture and cats

Disadvantages
- Highly dependent on owner for proper operation
——-> Useless if it isn't filled with treats
——-> Useless if filled with bad treats i.e. apples, carrots, etc
- Takes longer to get at your treats versus getting them directly by hand
- It gets slimy (and fuzzy if your owner doesn't Swiffer often)

My puppy is teething and he shreds anything he can get his paws on! The kong gives him hours of chewing fun with out the destroyed toy in the end!

MY DOG LOVES CHEWING ON KONGS - it keeps her busy and happy!

On September 12, 2007:
My sister told me these were wonderful but I did not believe her. She is right!

On September 12, 2007:
Kongs are the ultimate dog toy if you dont have one GET ONE!!!! they are addicted to them... my mother in laws dog who NEVER fetched or caught anything in her mouth now jumps in their coy pond after the thing... you will see a different side of your dog come out.

This sturdy, safe chew toy can be filled with treats to keep a bored or anxious dog happy while you're away. A good filled Kong keeps your dog busy trying to get the treats, which can help curb behavioral problems caused by separation anxiety (whining/howling, self mutilation, etc.). I give my dog her Kong, filled with peanut butter, whenever a repair man comes over, and she becomes blissfully oblivious to his presence as she laps away at the the gooey peanut buttery goodness hidden inside. Every dog owner should have one!

If you don't have a kong yet, GET ONE! I know they're more expensive especially in the store but it keeps my dog busy playing when I'm not able to. VERY durable too. One of only 2 toys that has lasted more than just a few weeks.

On August 9, 2007:
This is simply the best toy for puppies. A stuffed kong can be used to keep them busy for hours, and they are great for crate training. My puppy loves them stuffed with other Kong goodies, cream cheese, peanut butter, frozen meat pieces or anything else I can get inside. I stuff several at a time and keep them in the fridge or freezer so they are always handy.

On August 8, 2007:
The best! Just fill with peanut butter and freeze and you have the best babysitter for your dogs!

On July 26, 2007:
Absolutely the best toy for our two dogs! Fill it with the Kong stuffing or peanut butter, pop it in the freezer for about an hour and the dogs will love you forever (plus you get a good 15-25 minutes of silence) :)

On June 28, 2007:
Our 6 month old Scottie was destroying every toy until we got the red Kong. Ruby can chew on it for an hour and not damage it. She even likes to chew on it without a treat stuffed in it. She loves it!
Thank you Kong!

On June 20, 2007:
We stuff the kong and freeze it for our pup. He runs to his crate when he even sees one come out of the freezer!

On June 3, 2007:
The Kong is the only toy that lasts for my Rotweiller. He loves them. We throw them and he fetches beautifully. When we start the car he grabs his Kong and shakes his head and growls. He just loves his Kong! We tried many other toys and they were in pieces with one bite.

On May 10, 2007:
I couldn't get my old dog to fetch anything until I purchased the red kong. Now he's eager to go out and play fetch.

On May 10, 2007:
Kong make great 'break time' chew time toys for dogs.

we love all your products, great for crate training, they really are the number one dog toy.Keep up the great work!!!

On March 25, 2007:
I stuff my puggle's kongs natural peanut butter and leave them in the freezer over night. The next day they are ready for a good 30minutes of entertainment. The cold Kong helps his teething and the frozen peanut butter lasts longer!
