Teething puppies chew because their gums hurt, and giving them something appropriate to work on is how you steer that instinct away from your table legs and shoes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe hollow center is where it earns its place. Stuff it with kibble, puppy-safe spreads, or wet food and freeze it, and you get two things at once: cold relief for sore gums and twenty minutes of independent occupation. That makes it one of the more useful tools for crate training and for teaching a puppy to settle alone, which is the foundation of avoiding separation problems later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eChoose the size that matches your puppy's current weight, and re-check as your puppy grows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBenefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSofter Rubber: Formulated for developing puppy teeth and gums.\u003cbr\u003eTeething Relief: Freeze it stuffed for cold, soothing chewing.\u003cbr\u003eStuffable Center: Holds kibble, wet food, or spreads.\u003cbr\u003eBuilds Good Habits: Redirects chewing onto something appropriate.\u003cbr\u003eCrate and Alone-Time Training: Gives a puppy a job while settling.\u003cbr\u003eErratic Bounce: Makes fetch unpredictable and engaging.\u003cbr\u003eDishwasher Safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSafety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSupervise play and inspect the toy regularly. Replace it once you see chunks missing, deep gouges, or splits, since swallowed rubber can cause an intestinal blockage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePuppies grow fast. A KONG that fit at twelve weeks may be a choking hazard at six months, so re-size as your puppy grows and move up to the Classic red or the Extreme black once the adult teeth are in and the chewing gets serious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCount anything you stuff it with toward your puppy's daily food. Peanut butter adds up quickly on a small dog, and check that any spread you use is xylitol-free — xylitol is toxic to dogs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kong\/KVP","offers":[{"title":"Medium","offer_id":52606769266919,"sku":null,"price":10.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/7053\/6935\/files\/kongpup.webp?v=1788983816","url":"https:\/\/petrx.com\/products\/kong-puppy","provider":"PETRX.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
