KONG Maxx Bone – Dog Toy (Small/Medium)

KONG Maxx Bone – Small/Medium

Maxx is the range KONG built for dogs that go through ordinary plush in an evening. The cover material resists puncture up to five times better than standard plush — KONG's own claim — and the seams are few and sewn with heavy thread, because seams are where soft toys usually fail first.

This is the bone shape in Small/Medium, which KONG list as a small and medium sized toy. It squeaks, and it is shaped to be carried lengthways, so a dog can pick it up cleanly and swing it without having to get its jaw round a ball.

Performance & Benefits

• Cover resists puncture up to five times more than regular plush, on KONG's own figure.
• Minimal seams, sewn with super-strong thread.
• Squeaker to spark and sustain interest.
• Bone shape is easy for a dog to pick up and carry lengthways.
• Soft enough for indoor fetch without damaging furniture.
• Made for serious fetchers rather than for gentle mouths only.

Suitable For

• Small and medium dogs — the sizes KONG list this bone in.
• Dogs that destroy standard plush toys quickly.
• Indoor and outdoor fetch, and carrying about the house.
• Owners who want a soft toy that lasts more than a week.
• Still not a substitute for a rubber chew — a dog that settles down to grind at a toy wants the KONG Extreme in black instead.

How to Use

• Throw it for fetch, or use it as a carry toy indoors.
• Play tug by one end rather than by the middle.
• Sponge clean and air dry; do not tumble dry the cover.
• Check the seams over after heavy sessions.

Specification

• Size Small/Medium. KONG list the Maxx Bone in Small and Medium.
• KONG UPC 035585509341, which matches this product exactly.
• Puncture-resistant cover, minimal seams, super-strong thread, squeaker.
• KONG give this code as 5.75 × 2 × 10in and 0.21 lb, in 70% polyethylene, 28% polyester and 2% plastic squeaker.
• KONG themselves file UPC 035585509341 as the Small; the store title reads Small/Medium.

Care & Caution

• Tougher than plush is not indestructible. KONG claim resistance, not immunity.
• Once the cover is punctured, the squeaker and filling are swallowable — take it away.
• Supervise play rather than leaving it with a dog unattended.
• Use the size KONG intend; a small toy given to a big dog is a choking risk.
