KONG Extreme – Dog Toy (Small, Black)

KONG Extreme – Small, Black

The Small Extreme is 4.4 × 4.4 × 7.6cm and weighs just 50g, which puts it with dogs up to about 20 lb — roughly 9kg. Small does not mean soft: this is the same black Extreme rubber KONG use on the XXLarge, in a body sized for a Jack Russell rather than a rottweiler.

A lot of small dogs chew far above their weight, and this is the toy for them. The hollow is narrow, so it suits a handful of kibble topped with paste rather than a whole bowlful, and it freezes down to a very long-lasting job for a little dog.

Performance & Benefits

• KONG's hardest rubber grade in their smallest practical Extreme size.
• 4.4 × 4.4 × 7.6cm, 50g — light enough for a small dog to carry and toss.
• Hollow chamber for kibble, wet food or a paste seal.
• Erratic rebound that a terrier will chase round a room.
• Freezes well; a stuffed and frozen Small will occupy a little dog a long time.
• 100% natural rubber, made in the USA.

Suitable For

• Dogs up to about 20 lb (roughly 9kg) in KONG's sizing.
• Small breeds that destroy soft toys and Classic red rubber alike.
• Portioned feeding for a dog whose daily ration is genuinely small.
• Travel and car journeys, where a light toy is easier to pack.
• Wrong for anything bigger than a small terrier — a Small KONG can disappear behind a medium dog's back teeth, so move up to the Medium or Large Extreme.

How to Use

• Push kibble in through the wide end and seal it with a little paste.
• Freeze the stuffed toy to make a small ration last far longer.
• Begin with a loose fill so a small dog does not give up on it.
• Hot soapy water or the dishwasher's top rack; dry fully before reloading.
• Roll or bounce it along the floor rather than throwing it at a small dog.

Care & Caution

• KONG's own instruction: supervised use only, remove all packaging and packaging attachments, and discontinue use if damaged.
• KONG add that power chewers may need to size up one or two sizes — this is the smallest Extreme, so a determined small dog may be better on the Medium.
• Never give a Small KONG to a medium or large dog; at 4.4cm across it is a swallowing hazard for them.
