FAQs
What material is the KONG Goodie Bone made of?
It is made from KONG's unique natural red rubber formula, known for its durability and safety.
How can I make the treat-dispensing challenge last longer?
You can extend the playtime by stuffing the Goodie Gripper holes tightly with kibble or treats, then freezing the toy. This makes it harder for your dog to extract the treats.
Is this toy safe for aggressive chewers?
The KONG Classic red rubber is durable for moderate to strong chewers. For dogs with extreme chewing habits, KONG Extreme toys are recommended. Always supervise play and remove if damaged.
What is the recommended size for my dog?
This specific product is the Extra Large size, recommended for dogs weighing 60-80lbs. It's important to choose a size appropriate for your dog's weight and chewing strength.
How do I clean the KONG Goodie Bone?
Wash with warm water and mild soap. You can use a bottle brush to clean the inside of the treat holes. Rinse well and air dry.
Can I put peanut butter inside?
Yes, you can stuff the Goodie Gripper holes with peanut butter, kibble, KONG Snacks, or KONG Easy Treat paste. Freezing it after stuffing can make the challenge last longer.
What is the warranty on this product?
Information regarding specific warranty details is typically found on the product packaging or the manufacturer's official website. KONG generally stands by the quality of its products.
Troubleshooting
Dog is not interested in the stuffed toy
Start with highly palatable treats or pastes. Ensure the treats are easily accessible initially. Try different stuffing combinations or use a treat that has a strong scent. For puppies or hesitant dogs, a small amount of peanut butter or KONG Easy Treat can be a good enticement.
Dog is destroying the toy quickly
This toy is designed for moderate chewing. For extreme chewers, consider a KONG Extreme toy. Supervise play closely and remove the toy if it shows signs of damage.
Difficulty cleaning the inside of the grippers
Use warm water and soap. A bottle brush or an old toothbrush can help dislodge stuck food particles. Soaking the toy in warm, soapy water for a short period can also loosen debris before cleaning.
Toy is too large or small for my dog
Ensure you have selected the correct size based on your dog's weight. The extra-large is for dogs 60-80lbs. If it's too large, the dog may struggle to engage; if too small, it could be a choking hazard or destroyed too easily.
