"I use these as Kong ball stuffers, put peanut butter on the end of the Kong ball hole and put the ball in the freezer overnight. It kept both dogs very busy trying to get the stuffing out."

— Meg0

"Although I usually love Kong products, the smell of these treats is truly awful. Also, they were crumbly. The treats fell apart easily, and most were already crumbled in the package. My dog seems to like them though!"

Bottom Line

If your dog enjoys the flavor and can tolerate the strong smell, these treats have functionality for KONG toy fillers. However, more sensitive pets and owners might want to consider the downsides.
