KONG Senior - Dog Toy with Gentle, Natural Rubber - Durable Dog Toy for Older Dogs - Use Treats with Stuffable Chew Toy - Treat Toy for Chewing & Fetching - for Large Dogs

You can always trust the people at Kong to make great products. These are for senior dogs and even though I have a puppy, he totally enjoys it. They’re great to put peanut butter and freeze and then give to the dog and it will keep his attention for a good 20 minutes. Excellent product very bouncy just like a ball.

Just a great product! I bought the "junior" kong for my puppy when I brought him home ten years ago. He has always loved it and still has it. I bought him the firmer "adult" kong and he loves it stuffed with peanut butter. Now that he's entering his senior years I thought he deserved the "senior" version. He has loved it since it came out of the box. This is just a simple product that excels in every way. It is the right shape. The right texture. It is washable. And they last forever. They are a real value.

I have old dogs and handicapped dogs so I use larger sized kongs to make it a little easier for them while still keeping them busy. One of my dogs inhales food and this keeps her eating a bit longer. She's rear end paralyzed and when she wasn't I loved it when she'd use her front paws to hold the kong as she attacked it - now she doesn't use her paws that way, I miss it. The kongs are also good for my food aggressive dog since it keeps her busy so she doesn't bother herself with what the other dogs are doing. I also think it cuts down on the gas that comes with the gulping of food, but that isn't a proven thing. Kongs are made in the USA which makes me feel better about feeding my dogs out of them. I'm not fearing strange toxic chemicals in the make up of them. Things that I don't like is that they can sometimes feel a little tacky to the touch even though I don't put them in the dishwasher. Also the white yellows over a short time. But they are getting daily use. I've had two dogs that wouldn't use them. One was a low/no vision elderly dog who just didn't get it. She's also toothless so just eating out of a regular bowl is challenge enough. The other who wouldn't bother with them was just not food motivated at all. She could take it or leave it and if it got hard to get to - she'd leave it But the other dogs seem to enjoy using them. Oh a great thing about the Senior type is that it's easier for people to get the food out of them. The red ones are REALLY hard, these if a dog gets stuck or is just learning how to work them, you can step on it and squeeze out some food and they get the idea. Love the fact that they are softer, but they are not soft, just softer than the hard red ones. If your dogs are chewers this may be a problem but most of my dogs don't have all their teeth and none of them are chewers so it works for me. Good products by kong although now many companies now make puzzle feeders/distraction toys and it's good to switch them out once in a while to engage your pup but kongs have been around for a while because they work, they aren't fancy but they are sturdy. And compared to some others, they are easy to fill and not frustrating or too difficult for a dog to get at the food. Kong = Good!

durable and made well.

This has been great for our small dog. She loves when "the kong" gets mentioned. Safe, durable and the quality is great! Only negative thing I would say is it's not super easy to clean. Other than that, it is a great choice!

My dogs love this. Well, only when there is something inside for them to eat of course. I have a 9 year old black lab beagle mix and a 5 year old Chihuahua and the senior small was the perfect size for both. Neither of my dogs are major chewers so that helped. They are not too heavy, my beagle mix will actually pick this one up (opposed to the regular red KONG). They feel very durable, as they are rubber. The price of the two pack was worth it, as both my dogs have a durable treat toy for not that much.

This is not by any means my first Kong purchase. When we got our first little rescue dog and realized that she was both very smart and had lots of energy, our first stop was to buy a Kong Classic toy. She was about a year and a half when we got her, and it was the perfect fit. The next addition to our family (just a few days ago) was a 9-week old Husky/Jack Russell mix (I know, right?) who we were determined to raise in a healthy, well-trained way. As with any puppy, he enjoys exploring and quickly discovered that baseboards, rugs and shoes were more interesting than anything else to "investigate" with his little razor teeth. I quickly jumped on Amazon and ordered the Senior Kong toy. Now you may be wondering why I chose the Senior toy instead of the Puppy Kong, also avaialble. Really it comes down to personal preference. Despite being only 9-weeks old, the husky side of our little Nico is tough, and he has already put a few holes in the softer puppy toys from various brands that we purchased. I don't think he's quite ready for the adult Kong, so we got the Senior Kong because the documentation stated it was a little tougher than the Puppy one, but not as tough as the Adult. DESIGN/BUILD Made of durable natural rubber, this toy is thick enough that puncture marks do not create weaknesses in the structure of the toy. You see, most toys are made of theoretically durable materials (rubber, hard plastic etc) but many are flawed in design, in that a puncture mark from a little dog tooth then creates a weakness in the whole toy. Suddenly there are four or five punctures, and off comes the edge of a rubber bone. The Kong is different, in that it uses its shape and thickness to counteract this. The edges of the toy are internal, meaning it is a lot harder for a dog of any size to grab one of the edges and rip - the rest of the toy is thick enough so that you don't have to worry. When clean, this toy has the natural vanilla rubber smell that is rather pleasant. As mentioned, the durability is head and shoulders above other dog toys on the market! PURPOSE Unlike other toys, the Kong is not a chew toy per se. By making the toy hollow, the Kong Company has in fact created more of a puzzle than an easy chew, so that dogs have to work smartly to get at their favorite treats. Our new pup spends almost he chews the edges sometimes, but mostly his primary goal is the goodness on the inside. THE PERFECT KONG RECIPE: We have found this to be one of the best mixes for your pup, and healthy too! - A handful of our pup's Kibble (We use Flint River Ranch for its human-grade meat content) - A few Zuke's Mini Dog Treats - his favourite little morsels! - A few frozen blueberries, although fresh will do - Top it off and seal with some organic no-sugar Peanut Butter As you may already know, the Kong can be frozen after it has been filled for the ultimate summer snack! OVERALL In my first review of the Kong classic I said "I wish I had a reason to buy another", simply because I appreciated the design, functionality and cost-effectiveness. With our new puppy that reason came along (with wiggles and face kisses) and we are happy to add to our Kong collection. Oh and as for the first one we bought nearly two years ago? Almost looks like new...

This is a good size, though I would call it medium. It is the same size and has the same 'give' as a puppy one I have, but I believe the top opening is larger - which is clever, since puppy biscuits and treats are a lot smaller and the snouts are larger on an older dog. It arrived next day. My dogs are big and like to chew, but I've found they really enjoy ones with adequate give, they really don't play with the 'extreme' black model, they just hide it in the garden as if its a bone that needs to decompose for a while.

Súper bien, entretiene por un buen tiempo a mis pequeñas, le compré uno mediana a mi perrita mestiza maltés con westie y otro chico a una mestiza chihuahua con maltés. Como por 40min a 1 hora están jugando y lamiendo, se los doy normalmente cuando estoy trabajando o me voy de la casa.

Vraiment top mon chiot adore Bonne qualité occupe le chien longtemps congelé top pour les dents je recommande

Is as advertised. Good for a small senior dog.

Dog toy arrived on time and very pleased with this item. It is soft so perfect for my senior black lab, nice and soft. I fill it with small treats and then use Kong Easy Treat flavoured spray to make a seal to hold it all in. My senior dog loves it so much and it enables him to engage in fun play again. Even my other young dog tries to sneak off with my senior dog's new Kong toy, despite him having a variety of his own toys. Very satisfied with this purchase based on quality, durability, and the fact that it is geared specifically towards senior dogs.
