Kong Stuffing Recipes
Kong Dog Toys are widely used and recommended for therapy and prevention of understimulation, boredom, separation anxiety and other behaviour problems.

On of the most common techniques is to stuff a Kong.

Unstuffing Kongs has become a very popular and important activity, because it can keep dogs contentedly busy for hours while they crunch up and lick out the food nuggets and tasty treats stuffed inside.

The following are recipes created by veterinarians, dog trainers and dog lovers worldwide.

BANANA RAMA

2 tbs wheat germ
1 tbs plain yogurt (can use your pet's favorite flavour as well)
Kong Toy that best fits your pet's chewing temperament
In a bowl, mash up banana. Then, add wheat germ and yogurt. Mash all ingredients together and use spoon to add to Kong. Freeze for 4 hours. Makes 1 serving for Medium Kong. Double for every Kong Size that is bigger.

A very simple and creative way to make any pet drool in delight. Just place the 3 slices of cheese directly onto the grooves of your pet's Dental Kong (if model has rope - make sure cheese does not get onto it). Melt in microwave for 20 to 30 seconds. Give to pet after it cools.

Kong Stuffing Techniques

It is important for dogs to succeed at their "work". Make it easy to remove the kong stuffing at first.
As they become more experienced, you may want to make their job more challenging - here's how:

- Pack stuffing tighter.

- Wedge biscuits inside the cavity using the inside rim of the opening to secure them.

- FREEZE IT! Very Popular! Try various combinations of canned food, gravy, noodles, rice and mashed potatoes mixed with food nuggets and freeze. KONGSICLES are a favorite with many hot dogs! Put a dab of peanut butter in the small end of the Kong to plug it. Turn it upside down in a cup. Fill it full of water, chicken broth or fruit juice and freeze. Cool doggies! Kongsicles are recommended for outdoor use.

- CHEESE IT! Mix cheese pieces or cheese spread with food nuggets and microwave until cheese melts. Let it cool to a safe temperature.

NOTE - Use a cup to contain the Kong when freezing or microwaving.
