Title: Frozen Kongs
Post by: Lynne1 on April 24, 2017, 11:27:22 AM

Hi there, I am reading articles about people freezing food inside Kongs. Is it safe to feed a pup frozen food from these Kongs?

We have never had any problems with frozen kongs. I have given them their raw food frozen, banana, tuna, yogurt to name a few. I often give them raw chicken wings frozen too. It slows them down!

I wondered that too when I came on this site and saw people advocated it. All my life I have thought it was inadvisable to give puppies cold food and have always given them warm food. But as regards frozen kongs , it takes them a while to get it out, and in comes out in small bits, so it's rather like us licking a lolly! I still feed their meals at room temperature, but the frozen Kong when leaving them alone is a brilliant idea.
