We have quite a few Kong toys for our larger bull terrier. We
particularly like Kong toys, because our bully has a pretty gnarly bite,
and he manages to destroy all of his toys within seconds of receiving
them. Kong toys however are capable of withstanding his bite.
The odd shape of Kong balls however never really kept him all too
occupied. They didn't do much, and all he could really do was pop it in
his mouth and carry it around; which he did not do at all unless the
ball was filled with cheese or peanut butter. Then, and only then would
his Kong toys be worthy of messing around with for awhile.
We do however fill his Kong ball up with cheese and peanut butter, and
after awhile the inside of it gets pretty disgusting if we do not clean
it out properly. Usually running it under really hot water, and then
sticking our finger into the hole would keep the toy clean.
We never really thought much about it, but when it needed to be
cleaned, it became an annoying little chore, so when I came across this
nifty little device made specifically for cleaning out Kong toys, I had
to scoop it up.
It's called a Kong Toy Cleaning Brush, and looking at it, I realized that this tool would be a perfect solution to cleaning out the ball that our dog uses.
The brush is shaped just like the Kong Toys, and they come in
medium/small or large/XL sizes in order to ensure proper cleaning on the
correct sized Kong toy.
My Use:
The wand contains precisely shaped bristles to get to the corners of
the toy, while brushing out all of the gunk left inside. The durable
wands allows you to move the bristles back and forth in a circular
motion in order to get a really good surface scrub inside of the toy.
I was surprised it worked as good as it did, but I still needed to run
the toy under hot water to get loose any old food particles stuck to
the side walls.
All in all the Kong Cleaning Brush is not the next best invention, but
it certainly makes cleaning out Kong toys a heck of a lot easier, and
we no longer have to shove out fingers into the inside of the toy in
order to clean it out. It saves us time, and is neater than using your
finger.
Overall:
If you have a rather large collection of Kong Toys, or if you are just
sick of sticking your finger into the inside of your dogs Kong toy,
than I would highly suggest one of these brushes. The bristles are
rough, and really give the toy a good cleaning.
Where To Buy:
I found the brush for sale at Marshall's for $2.99. You can find it
just about anywhere Kong toys are sold, or online. It's worth the few
dollars you will pay for it.
