Dog Chew Toys

Dogs chew to help regulate their emotions, concentrate on tasks, and, in the process, exercise their minds and bodies. When dogs chew, lick, or forage, their brains release endorphins that alleviate stress, anxiety, boredom, and loneliness. Chew toys are fantastic tools for bored pups, helping them self-soothe. Some KONG chew toys make sounds to encourage longer and livelier chew sessions. Others are meant to be stuffed with treats or kibble. But all KONG chew toys were made to be healthy outlets for chewing and to help prevent destructive chewing around the house.

If you're wondering how to stop destructive chewing for dogs that are chewing everything in sight, redirect their instinct to chew by providing a stuffed KONG or other durable rubber chew toys. This will help protect your belongings and promote relaxation through healthy chewing and licking. Instead of training your dog to avoid these perfectly natural behaviors, consider providing toys that encourage them to express their instincts in a healthy way. KONG also makes some of the best teething toys for puppies—designed using a natural teething rubber formula that provides gentle comfort and satisfying enrichment. For additional help soothing teething pain, try stuffing a Puppy KONG with Easy Treat or another dog-safe treat and tossing it in the freezer!
