FAQs
Is this toy suitable for aggressive chewers?
No, the plush exterior is not designed to withstand intense chewing. It is best for dogs who focus on tugging, carrying, and light interaction.
Can I put the Ringaroo in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the internal squeaker and degrade the integrity of the rope and plush materials.
What is the primary benefit of the rope ring?
The rope ring provides a sturdy structure for games of tug and makes the toy easier for the dog to grab and hold in their mouth.
Does this toy require supervision?
Yes, we recommend supervising your dog during play, especially if your dog tends to be a heavy chewer, to ensure the toy is used safely.
What size dog is this intended for?
This specific model is designed for medium-sized dogs.
Troubleshooting
Dog is losing interest in the toy
Introduce variety by alternating between tug-of-war and fetch, or store the toy away between sessions to keep it 'novel' for the dog.
Plush material is getting dirty
Use a damp cloth with mild pet-safe soap to spot clean the exterior and allow the toy to air dry completely.
Visible wear on the rope
If the rope becomes severely frayed, the toy should be retired to prevent the dog from ingesting loose fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No setup is required for the KONG Ringaroo; simply remove the packaging and present it to your pet. This toy is best suited for medium dogs; smaller breeds may find the ring too bulky to carry, while very large or power-chewing breeds may compromise the plush exterior quickly. For care, it is recommended to spot clean the plush exterior with a damp cloth if it becomes soiled. Because of the rope and plush construction, the toy is not machine washable. Regularly inspect the toy for loose threads or exposed rope fibers and remove the toy if any parts become detached to ensure the safety of your pet.
