Since 1970, KONG toys have been a household name for dog owners, and with good reason! Not only are many of our toys durable for play, but they also double as a physically and mentally stimulating way for pups to eat. The KONG Classic in particular is a fan-favorite, and can be filled with anything from peanut butter to frozen kibble. If you’re wanting to indulge your dog in a special treat that’s still good for them, stuff their KONG with one of these healthy recipes.
