They also tell you how to take care and when to replace your Kong. Just an FYI: Make sure your kongs are made by Kong Company USA. There are a lot of pet stores that sell fake kongs just because they are so popular, and most of those ARE made over seas. Every kong from Kong Company USA will come with a user guide. I hope this was helpful.

The plush kongs, apparently are made in China. But the company says they are safe. I hope they are right.

Chuck Costello, director of marketing for KONG, said the three KONG toys that are made in China (Air KONG, KONG plush, and KONG Wubba) go through rigorous safety standards.
“All imported KONG product lines are tested by independent laboratories, once in China and again in the U.S. to prove they are safe and non-toxic,” Costello said. “Once products are received in the KONG warehouse they are again subjected to strict KONG quality control procedures.”
In response to the lab results, the CPSC said that it only regulates products (including toys) that hurt humans. They didn’t specify if that includes pet toys that could be handled by humans.
