Guest guest Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 I know there's a lot of dog lovers on this list and I'm hoping to tap into your collective knowledge. I need a chew toy for my 82 pound lab mix that has no rawhide (it gives him unbelievable diarhea) but can keep him busy chewing for more than 20 minutes. I know pigs ears are supposed to be great but there is no way in the world I could bring myself to purchase these. Any ideas? Katie http://frugalveggiemama.blogspot.com Food fight?

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 when I had dogs, they loved the large ropes-- looks like bone shaped with knots on each end. They also make ones with rubber " toys " attached to the ropes, with textures that are supposedly good for the teeth.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Katie, I have not tried this yet for our dogs. You can buy a rubber " kong " . They have a hole inn the middle. Stuff it with peanut butter and freeze it. The dog will keep chewing even though they won't be able to get out all of the p butter. we have non sporting dogs and I was thinking of trying this so they would catch and fetch it. If I throw them a ball, they just look at it. GB , Katie Mangan <kmangan33 wrote: > > I know there's a lot of dog lovers on this list and I'm hoping to tap into your collective knowledge.

Mine get them all the time. My freezer always has plenty of them in it!!! Great exercise for their teeth!!

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 I have never heard of the Kongs, so I looked it up on the internet. Thanks for making us aware of these. The review and suggestions are also helpful.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 The dogs just love them, and when frozen, they can keep a dog chewing and licking them for 3 hours or more. They are fun. My freezer is full of them for my crew. Marilyn Daub mcdaub Vanceburg, KY My Cats Knead Me!! - wwjd Sunday, January 14, 2007 9:19 AM Re: Re: OT: veg dog chews?

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 He loves greenies but he tears through them in no time at all. We do have a large kong for him but up until now I've only put the kong cookies into it. I never tried freezing peanut butter. That sounds like a good idea.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 Marilyn, When you put peanut butter in the kong, how much do you put in? Do you fill the entire hole? Thanks for the info, three hours busy chewing sounds phenominal! Katie http://frugalveggiemama.blogspot.com Get your own web address. Have a HUGE year through Small Business.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 I fill the hole!!! Most often with both cheese and peanut butter. The more in it, the longer to clean it. If you have a Big Lots, they have Kong look-alikes that are really much cheaper!!
