I put some peanut butter in Farley's Kong today but he didn't seem very interested in it. How long before I need to clean it out? Will is still be ok for him tomorrow or should I clean it out if he doesn't eat it tonight?

What types of things do your dogs like in their Kongs?

My pup wasn't very interested in peanut butter at first but now he likes it. I clean it out the next day if he doesn't eat it all. I put kibble or dry treats in first, then a little peanut butter and then top it off with slices of Nature's Balance dog food that looks like a big beef stick. That keeps him busy for a while. I heard you can fill the kongs and then freeze them so they last longer too.

Good morning!
My dogs don't care for Kongs so I have had the same question as you have...I personally don't think that the peanut butter will go "bad" inside of the Kong...at least for a couple of days, but you probably would want to clean it out while it is still soft.
Here is a good site for Kong ideas:

I use peanut butter and mine love it I guess you just have to keep trying things until you find what your dog likes. They do sell stuff to put inside the kongs at the stores.

I bought a spray of peanut butter from the pet store, but it is runny and messy, it also gave my Otto the bum squirts, do you use human peanut butter?

Most people use HUman, but I would go with an all natural or at the least a low-sugar/low-sodium version.
