Are my Yorkies different from others? I went to Petsmart yesterday and bought 2 Kongs and the liver paste and other treats to go in them. I spent over $30.00. I have read on YT that other Yorkies love their Kongs and they will entertain them for hours. I thought mine would like them. I came home filled them up and gave the Kongs to them. They just sniffed at them and walked off. They are still laying in the same place. They haven't even touched them. Are my dogs weird? I even put peanut butter in one after they didn't seem to like the other stuff. They didn't like the peanut butter either, I guess. Still wouldn't tough it. Does anybody else's dog not like the Kongs? That was thirty dollars I could have spent on something else. |
Mine don't like the Kong's either, but I've never put anything in it. I don't know if they would like them or not with some pb in it! Maybe I could try that! I don't think your dogs are weird! :D |
Wish I could help..but my Daisy is the same way. Anything playful she could care less. Doesn't play with anything :( I try and try, but she just isn't into anything. I guess being a kennel dog for a few years before coming to live with me had a real effect on her. Good luck..keep trying! |
Sorry no help..I don't even know what a kong is... :confused: |
Mine aren't real fans either! I have peanut butter in them and it occupies them for awhile but other than that they tend to ignore them! |
my yorkies don't like any kind of treat. I have looked at the Kongs tho because of what I see on here and can't figure out how they ever get anything out of them. i guess I won't be buying any. |
Don't feel bad. My Yorkie and Aussie don't like them either. I have tried the peanut butter and all. Thank goodness I got mine on sale. Sucks when you spend your hard earned money and they turn their nose up at it. Just like our human babies, huh? |
Try filling them with their kibble....mine love eating from theirs. :D |
Whats a kong? |
Try rubbing a little coating of NutriStat on them. That helps sometimes. Don't leave a lot just enough for the smell to stay. Keep putting stuff inside..they will get the idea probably when you are not there to see them do it. They plan it that way to keep us on our toes.. |
I had rotties that loves their kongs my boxer does if I put treats and peanut butter in them but my yorkies could care less. Daisy got a kinda kong thing from her last secret buddy and they like that, its purple and kinda dumbell shapped you can put small treats and they roll out. It is also thinner in the middle so it fits in their mouths. |
My girls don't play with that kind of stuff either....we bought them a talk to me ball that gave out kibble and the girls didn't even barely sniff at it!! It was so crazy, they just don't like that kind of stuff!!! Don't worry your yorkies are weird....they all like different things!! |
As someone else on YT suggested, I smash a piece of American cheese inside of Midori's kong (really mush it against the sides) leaving just a little out at the top she LOVES it! She doesn't like the peanut butter though, so try the cheese! ;) |
Mine will only chew on the kong if there is something in it. |
I'll try the cheese in it. i give them cheese as a snack sometimes and they like it. My two used to play with toys more but now that I think about it they haven't been much lately. Maybe I need to get some new toys out. I put a lot of them up because they had so many and they were always all over the floor. Maybe I'll just keep trying different things in the Kong until I find something they like. I hate to have wasted that money. Just think, I could have bought me something with that money. |
