As a dog trainer, I bring up the Kong in every class I teach because they are amazing.
They keep dogs busy for hours if stuffed with yummy treats. This also stimulates your dogs brain as they try to get the treats out.
Have a dog with separation anxiety? A Kong may be just the thing to curb this behavior. Give a frozen stuffed Kong right before you leave and see the difference. Most all dogs with SA suffer the symptoms as you are leaving and right after you leave...if they have an irresistible Kong to keep them busy, it's easy for them to settle down.
They Kong itself is not exciting, I have students...
