Freezing is what makes a Kong worth owning: stuffed and frozen it occupies a dog for forty minutes rather than five, which is why it is a standard recommendation for separation anxiety and crate training.

| Inspect regularly | not published | Replace when chunks can be torn off |
| Never on matted coat | Mats must be worked out first | not published |

| Why freezing matters | not published | A frozen stuffed Kong is one of the standard recommendations for separation anxiety and crate training, because it occupies a dog for far longer |
| Wrong breeds | Should not be used on single-coated or non-shedding breeds -- Poodles, Bichons, Shih Tzus and similar. There is no undercoat to remove and it simply cuts the coat | not published |
