Dog Toys
Gentle puppy rubber that can be stuffed and frozen for teething relief.
✦ Why we chose it
It is the closest match to the book's recommendation for a tooth-conscious, supervised chilled or freezable teething option.
KONG Puppy uses a softer natural-rubber formula made for growing baby teeth and gums. The hollow center can hold puppy-safe food, then be frozen to create a supervised chilled teething option. Choose the correct size, size up when uncertain, inspect before every use, and graduate to an adult KONG when the puppy reaches the appropriate age and chewing strength.
Pros
Cons
SmartPaws Score
9.5 / 10
One low-cost toy supports teething, food enrichment, crate routines, and fetch.
A 4.6-star average across more than 53,000 reviews provides deep owner validation.
Soft natural rubber avoids the rigid nylon construction that can place more stress on developing teeth.
The puppy-specific rubber, stuffable cavity, and freezable design directly match supervised teething needs.
