These durable, interactive toys help ease anxiety, keep minds engaged, and turn long days into play-filled adventures. Whether stuffed with treats or used for a good game of fetch, KONGs are a favorite among our pups and a vital part of their rehabilitation and happiness.

Meet Bruno (first and second photos) — a big, lovable tripod hound mix with an even bigger heart. Though he’s missing a leg, that doesn’t slow him down! Bruno is strong and spirited, and he absolutely loves his daily walks. But like any athlete, he needs occasional pit stops to rest and recharge.

That’s where his beloved KONG toys come in. Stuffed with peanut butter, they’ve been the perfect way to keep Bruno mentally and physically engaged during his breaks.

Bruno has since been adopted and still loves his toys!!
