Forget the Food Bowl! Get a Kong!

One simple way a Kong can be utilized to promote good behavior in your dog is to fill it and let that be part or all of a meal. Get a larger Kong if necessary to hold all the meal. Better still, get two!  Try it for at least one meal a day.

Feeding with a Kong and foraging will help dramatically decrease the likelihood of problematic behaviors. Dogs in the wild spend the whole day foraging for food! Your dog will be happier and healthier if s/he spends time foraging for food or foraging from a Kong…it will take longer to eat and develop good chewing habits. Don’t get rid of the doggy diet…just make the doggy diet challenging to get!  Click here for a video on how to stuff a Kong
