KONG Comfort Kiddos Elephant – Small Dog Toy

KONG Comfort Kiddos Elephant – Small

This is the small Kiddos, the one that suits a terrier, a small spaniel or any dog that wants a toy it can actually carry in its mouth. KONG build the range around a low-tone bellow squeaker — a soft, deep note rather than the sharp squeal that winds some dogs up — and the elephant's trunk and ears give a small mouth somewhere obvious to take hold.

The squeaker lifts out, which turns one toy into two without buying a second. Ours carries barcode 035585360294; KONG's own current listing for the Comfort Kiddos Elephant is the X-Small, barcode 035585360485.

Performance & Benefits

• Removable squeaker for quiet time, which is KONG's own first listed feature for the range.
• Low-tone bellow squeaker that KONG say piques a dog's curiosity.
• Soft plush with a trunk and ears, so a small dog has several places to grip.
• Small enough for a little dog to pick up and carry rather than drag.
• Light enough for indoor play without clearing a low shelf.

Suitable For

• Small dogs and soft-mouthed dogs that carry a toy rather than dismantle it.
• Puppies past the destructive teething stage, under supervision.
• Crate settling and quiet evening company with the squeaker removed.
• Indoor use; plush does not survive a wet garden.
• Not for a dog that strips soft toys — the KONG Classic in Small is the toy for that mouth.

How to Use

• Remove the squeaker before leaving the toy with an unsupervised dog.
• Use it for play you join in with, then put it away so it stays novel.
• Inspect the seams around the trunk and ears, which are the parts that get pulled.
• Hand wash in warm soapy water with the squeaker out, and air dry completely.

Specification

• Size Small. Barcode 035585360294.

Care & Caution

• A removable squeaker is exactly the size that causes a blockage. Take it out for any dog that chews rather than cuddles.
• Stop using the toy when a seam opens; swallowed stuffing is the usual reason a plush toy ends up at the vet.
• KONG's own plush safety wording is to choose the correct size, supervise playtime and discontinue use if damaged.
