KONG Extreme Dog Toy
KONG Extreme Dog Toy, Black

Even if your dog’s job rarely takes him off the couch, the Kong Extreme’s goofy, unpredictable bounce makes for hours of chasing and fetching fun–just the thing for animals whose life in the wild consists of tracking, killing, chewing, and then doing the same thing all over again. Perfect for stuffing with KONG Treats and ZIGGIES. Made in the USA of nontoxic, extremely durable natural rubber. Chewing Kongs helps promote strong jaws, clean teeth, and general oral health. Regularly inspect the Kong for cracks or missing chunks, and replace worn or damaged toys to avoid a choking hazard. Supervised play is highly recommended, especially when first giving a Kong toy to your dog. Used by police, drug enforcement teams, and the military for training working dogs, this super-tough toy stands up to jaws of steel. When you’re away, simply stuff the hollow interior with treats or gooey peanut butter, and extracting the contents becomes a “hunt” to keep any pooch happy and busy all workday long.

Important note: the extreme Kong is NOT the same as the red Kong, which apparently is much flimsier. I got this for my neighbor’s good-natured pit bull Major, after seeing him shred everything else. Thin rubber squeaky toys last only a few hours, nylabones perhaps a day or two, and even the thick rubber chill pill got shredded. But the Kong Extreme has (to my surprise) remained intact. I had begun to think that only a chunk of cinderblock would survive…maybe. Extreme Kong takes funny bounces (which apparently is part of the idea. Toys with rope handles made for better slobber-avoiding toss-and-fetching, but handles got chewed off very quickly. You can throw this by poking your finger in the holes and tossing–it’s marginally better in terms of slobber than many other toys. Kong comes in different sizes–the largest may outweigh your toy Chihuahua, so be judicious. If a neighbor has a pit bull, getting on his good side is important, even if he is as good-natured as Major!

Our two dogs, which had destroyed various other toys in short order, are still trying to get their teeth into their Extreme King sized Kongs. Even as I type this our Pit is still desperately trying to destroy her Kong. We were worried about the smell from other reviews here but when we got the toys they just smelled faintly of processed rubber. After the dogs had them for about 10 seconds they smelled like dog saliva and that was that. Another great feature is the ability to just run these through the dishwasher if they get too gross. Make sure you get the right size for your dog though because I believe most of the stability of this toy comes from the fact that she can’t get a good grip on it. I hope you enjoy this product if you purchase it because they have been great in our house.
