See our quick guide in the images and there is a Kong size guide too.
The purple one! These are slightly softer rubber for older dogs whose teeth, gums and jaws may prefer an easier experience. However, it is really important that you and your vet check your senior dog’s teeth regularly. Needing something easier to chew can be the first sign of dental discomfort, even if you think teeth look ok. If your dog has used Kongs regularly in their life, this Kong Senior is a great option. If you’re looking to try something for the first time, have a look something a little easier to start – even a Kong ribbon where you can put more of the treat around the outside and the shape is a little easier for some dogs to hold onto – or simply leave flat.
As always with Kongs, stuff with something sticky not dry – wet food, JR Pate, Naturavetal rolls (stickier than JR pate) or you could soak some dry food (try soaking in bone broth for added yum!)
