| Kong stuffing ideas Just curious what do you guys stuff your kong with? I looked at the ingredients of the Puppy Kong Stuffing... it wasn't very healthy... he also eats it so quickly. What else would you recommend stuffing? What does your yorkie like the most? |

YT Graphic Artist Donating Member | I've used yogurt, peanut butter (I use all natural, no added salt), mashed bananas, little pieces of green beans or carrots, etc. They also used to love them frozen (specifically the yogurt & bananas) just fill, then freeze. They last longer that way too.

| good ideas. I hadn't thought of yogurt or bananas. Are bananas ok for dogs!? lol I will also have to freeze them because he goes through his peanut butter in minutes THANKS~! |

YT Graphic Artist Donating Member | Yes bananas are fine. Just mash them up, mix with yogurt, fill & freeze . Other fruits they can have include strawberries, melon, apples (no skin or seeds), cherries, etc. NO RAISINS OR GRAPES though.

YT Graphic Artist Donating Member | Great idea! There are a lot of threads here about "safe" foods - just search. There are also some recipes to make some food & treats yourself.

| I use plain yogurt sometimes but for some reason, Jackson has gotten sick of it and he gets lazy, lol. He'll only eat it half-way thru and then give up. I mostly use wet food now. Put some canned food into it, some kibble on the bottom sometimes, and then freeze it. He loves it and it lasts a while. He's never liked PB.

| Do you freeze the stuffed kong - the entire rubber shell filled with stuffing? I think it's a great idea to use wet food and freeze it! Thanks for sharing! |

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | Also mix 1:1 plain canned pumpkin and plain yogurt and put it in the freezer. They just love it. And it is keeps them regular

Yes you freeze the whole kong. Also what is great so you do not have any down time with it. It takes a while to freeze. There are kong easy freeze trays. They are ice cube trays shaped like a kong so you can use them to stuff the kong with. Fill the tray with whatever you want (even peanut butter)and freeze. They make "cubes" . You can make a whole bunch.
