Kong toys are the red things that you stuff food into. There's actually three version for different level of chewers. the baby version is blue/white and the texture is more rubbery and flexible (
baby kong ) the red ones are medium level and black is the stiffest, toughest to chew for heavy chewers. i got the baby blue/white version.
In addition to the potty pads, I also got a training spray. It's suppose to have the scent of urine. To help puppies identify appropriate places to pee. The pet potty pads are suppose to be scented already, but i found that using the spray helps reinforce the scent.
Other premium dog food I've considered: Natural Balance, Flint River Ranch, Canidae, Nutro Ultra. If you email Natural Balance and Canidae, they'll send you a free sample of their products. Good customer service. Quick turnaround. Flint River Ranch has samples available for purchase online. Nutro Ultra samples are sometimes available at pet boutiques.
