KONG Dog Toys Wild Knots Bear Assorted

KONG Wild Knots Bear is a teddy-shaped plush built around a knotted rope skeleton, so a dog that wants to shake and pull gets rope resistance inside something soft enough to fall asleep on. Five sizes are stocked — Xsmall, Small/Medium, Medium/Large, Xlarge and Jumbo — which covers a toy-breed puppy through to a giant breed carrying the thing around the yard. Stuffing is kept deliberately low, so a split seam leaves a handful of filling rather than a room full of it. Colours are assorted and sent at random.

• Internal knotted rope skeleton — the knots give a dog something firm to work against through the plush
• Minimal stuffing — far less to pick up than a conventional soft toy if the outer layer opens
• Body squeaker — brings a dog back to the toy between tug sessions
• Reinforced plush shell — stitched for tugging rather than for looks
• Five size bands — the same bear scaled from Xsmall up to Jumbo
• Suits gentle to moderate chewers under supervision, not dogs that set out to dismantle a toy

Size and materials

KONG gives the composition as 70% polyester, 28% cotton and 2% plastic squeaker, with the Xsmall at 66% polyester, 32% cotton and 2% squeaker. KONG's size guide covers Xsmall for dogs up to roughly 2 kg, Small/Medium up to roughly 16 kg and Medium/Large for roughly 14–29 kg; it publishes no band for the two larger sizes. Made in China. Spot clean by hand and air dry, and take the toy away once a seam opens.
