Food enrichment
Treat-filled KONGs are a great way to make your dog work for a reward. Replacing bowls with a KONG® for meal feedings will keep your dog busy and stimulated for a longer period of time. KONG® and other food puzzles are best for dogs who rush their meals. Simply place the dog’s recommended amount of kibble into the KONG®. Depending on the size of the KONG® and the dog, it could take a couple of re-fills for feeding.
Depending on your dog’s emotional state, KONG® can also be a great enrichment or stress reducing opportunity. For example, if your dog is experiencing boredom, providing him/her with a KONG® is a great enrichment activity. On the other hand, if your dog appears anxious or frustrated, a KONG® can assist in reducing stress.
