How long does a puppy kong last?8

I bought it for my old Pit Bull because she has bad teeth and gums hoping she'd chew it a little to help strengthen her gums or at least clean her teeth some, but she showed no interest in chewing it or anything else at all. My younger dog who is a three year old Boxer/Whippet mix loved it and promptly chewed the handle in two, then left it. It now sits in their "toy box" untouched, so I can't really give you a good answer to your question. Sorry

I bought two 1 year ago, one did not do well but the other I still have - I bought a second one 6 months ago and still have - I put peanut butter in them and freeze and give them to my 1yr old and 7 mth old almost every day.

My dog outgrew the kong without destroying it, and she's quite a chewer. I took it out of her toy collection (she loves toys) because I was afraid she would swallow it whole. I found another one out in the yard recently that was sort of cracked and dried out from having been out there for a few months but overall they're really sturdy.

It should last approx 30 days on or off the dog. The effectiveness during that period should not change due to taking it on and off. They say you can put it in a ziploc bag when off the dog to "save" it. I love the collars! Hope they are working well for you all! :)

Rosemary, if your puppy is a chewer, I doubt it will last....My rat terrier is the same way, demolishes everything that has cloth or fluffy stuffing, all except rubber dog balls.....I bought the Kong for my daughter's older dog who is not a chewer and she has to have it in her dog bed when she goes to bed at night. lol.....they are so cute...Kong is now like her security blanket. :)

Doug, our 8-month old great dane, hasn't chewed on it either. He does give a good yank on it when he wants to go outside and it is holding up pretty well. He hasn't ripped it nor torn off any of the bells. I think it's pretty sturdy.

This would last a large dog the better part of a day. This lasts my chihuahua/min pin about 4 days. It depends really on your dogs habbits.

Its good for a puppy or small dog such as a chihuahua. For a puppy I had to change the pad about 4 times a day till they got older. I also take my dogs outside. This was used while I was at work puppies can hold it an hr for every month plus an hr. So 4 months of age 5 hrs. Now my chihuahuas are almost a yr they can hold it. They go outside at 7am and 4pm n and again at 9pm. They only use the pads if its dire need. I do recommend this because they love to rip the pads. If you see your pup trying to rip make a sound like ah ah. Something telling them no but don't use the word no. Good luck.

I would say a couple of months at least. I have to say we don't change ours very often because our dog doesn't test the limit.

I have 2 aggressive chewers, a 115 lb. 10 yr old golden retriever and at 12 lb. 7 mo. old mini doxi mix, both can destroy indestructible toys, beds, blankets, you name it, in less than 24 hrs. They've had 2 diff sizes of these balls for about 3-4 weeks now and both look the same as the day I opened them. They play with them regularly, so you should get more than 24 hrs. out of them. My tiny dog can carry the very large one of these around also. He shreads a normal tennis ball in a matter of minutes, these he can't. Thankfully, they've worked for us.

Well, good question. I am not an expert, you might ask your vet or the KONG website. Sorry I can't answer your question. But I would HATE to give you the wrong answer. Hope you have a great time with your puppies.

I have never sat down and counted them but I have 2 dogs, give them each one a day and I believe it last about 4 months!

Our dogs are 8 years old so this might be a little tough on puppy teeth. We have one at 20 pounds and one at 80 pounds and this works for both of them.

My dog is quite a chewer, so it probably doesn't take her very long. But I can't be sure, because we give these treats when we have to crate her. I do know there's no way they last as long as rawhides, though. And be wary of the Nylabone chew toys with the sold surface. They're made in China, NOT the Healthy Edibles, which are still made here. And I won't let my dog have the ones from China, after she got really sick after chewing on one of them for several hours.

My puppy is a toy poodle I've had since 8 wks n she has had plenty of room to grow. Hope that helps.

I understand your concern, however my experience with this Kong Balls is that they are virtually indestructible. I have two adult male German shepherds that play with theirs continually, and have yet to see this ball shredded to ribbons like so many other toys. We bought this product about 8 months ago and its still going strong!

They are about an inch and a half long. May I suggest the Milkbone Soft and Chewy. They fit in the Kong because they are soft you can break them up for just shove them in. My pups love the chicken ones. The hard ones might be more difficult to get into your dogs toy. Hope that helps. Hazel

My dog is 28 lbs and it was a good size for him. He is 10 mos old and he tore this item up fairly quick. Expected it to last much longer
