Question
We have a Kong classic for our 1 year-old dog. She loves the Kong and spends plenty of time with it, but there always ends up being about half of an inch of peanut butter stuck at the very bottom of the interior.
Does this mean that the Kong is too small for her tongue? Should she be able to clean out thoroughly an appropriately sized Kong, given enough time?
Answer
We have multiple size kongs and it seems to us its really down to your dog and its ability to "get in there". We have a 50kg American Bull/Rotty/Shep and a Rotty/Staffie (25kg) and the bigger dog has a smaller tongue than the other one, but he can clean out any of the Kongs, the little one struggles or is less experienced at it
The largest size they do (XXL?) is huge and has a big opening, i would recommend going for those, if they cant clean it out, you can pick it up after and easily push the stuff out for them once they discarded it... plus they easier to clean. I also agree to put dry on the bottom as mentioned by Shirru
On a side note, the large dog destroys ANY toy in minutes or seconds, our Kongs are years old and still in good shape
