Sniffing Snout Review:
What more can be said that hasn’t been said about this excellent dog toy?  Something so simple, I wish I were clever enough to have invented it.  Mr.Brown spent the majority of his toddler to adolescent years (age 6mo-3 years) driving my mother bats* crazy by chewing up all her green garden hoses into little tubular worms across the lawn.  Within 48 hours of replacing a new hose, he would have rendered it completely useless. But, along came the Kong- chewy in texture, peanut buttery in taste (i filled in the hole), and virtually indestructible.

I have but a few gripes about this toy: 1) There are usually pools of drool in its wake from extended periods of Mr.Brown usage. 2) The hole isn’t big enough for the type of biscuits we buy him so I have to break them in 1/2 which leaves tons of crumbs everywhere. 3) Initially the smell of rubber was discomfiting, I’d prefer not to poison my dog with toxins, so maybe they could try washing these toys a few times before they stock them on shelves…

This is a MUST HAVE for any new dog owner!
