Default What do you put in your Kong?

I want to fill up the smallest size Kong toy with something that's lower
in fat and calories than the canned Kong "stuff". What would you suggest?

Thanks,
Amy

There are a number of things that you can freeze in on, although where
they get eaten can be an issue (outdoors, crate, dog bed = good, human
bed, carpeting, etc = bad!). You can mush up dog food, spoon in low or
non fat yogurt, low fat cottage cheese, etc. Put the kong in a dixie
cup (or a small glob of PB in the hole at the tip as well), fill and
freeze.

Or even veggie broth. I tried your idea of making ice cubes, but with
homemade veggie instead of meat broth. Salt free, too. They have
been a *big* hit.

David's dog Maggie comes running when she hears the freezer opening!
She likes ice cubes even a little more than dog biscuits. Peanut's
never figured out what the other dogs like about them, though.

Fidget used to try to save his for later. Which wouldn't have been so
bad but sometimes he hid them under the sofa cushions.
