How can the KONG Extreme Dog Toy help my dog’s chewing?
Chewing is a natural outlet for our furry friends. During puppyhood, they may chew for a similar reason to why human babies suck their thumb.
Their gums are hurting from cutting their teeth! As they enter into adulthood, you may notice that your dog continues to chew.
This is because his instincts are telling him to keep his jaws strong and his teeth clean.
This toy is also great if your dog suffers from doggie separation anxiety.

How can the KONG Extreme Dog Toy help my dog’s separation anxiety?
Typically, a dog can experience separation anxiety within twenty minutes of their owner leaving him alone.
If you train your pooch while he is still a puppy that being alone can be a good thing, then he will be less likely to have anxiety over your departure.
By offering your puppy, a treat-stuffed toy (such as the KONG Extreme Dog Toy stuffed with KONG treats) he will be kept happy and occupied.
While its physical appearance may not be the most attractive, it is loaded with pooch friendly features that your dog is sure to love!
For example, the KONG Extreme Dog Toy is made from an ultra-strong black rubber compound which may be strong enough to withstand your dog’s 320-pound bite force.
This design is perfect for large dog breeds such as German Shepherds, American Pitbull Terriers, and Great Danes.
Smaller canine companions may also enjoy this dog toy, especially if they fancy chewing.
However, the toy’s size may make it better suited for a larger dog.
KONG manufacturers also produce doggie treats which can be stuffed into the KONG Extreme Dog Toy for your pooch to find.
This ultra-durable dog toy can help keep your dog occupied for hours on end, curve his interest from your favorite pair of shoes and encourage his mental development with the treat finding feature.

Our canine companions have a tendency to become destructive when they experience boredom. This can occur in all dog breeds, although some of them are more prone to destruction than others.
This applies especially to Pitbull breeds.
Why? The answer is simple. Pitbulls are a high energy, playful, and loving dog breed.
If they are not provided enough exercise or play, then they will experience boredom and therefore become destructive.
When a Pitbull becomes destructive due to boredom, they can cause intense damage because of their muscular body and strong jaws.
To combat this problem, chew toys can not only help your dog stay occupied when left alone, but some of them can also withstand the strength from a Pitbull’s jaws (unlike your furniture or favorite pair of shoes).
Pitbulls and their jaw strength:
There are far too many myths circulating the canine community that suggests Pitbull and other Bully breeds have lock jaw capabilities.
They Don't Have Locking Jaws
There are also myths that suggest that Pitbulls and other Bully breeds are capable of intense damage (more so than other dog breeds) because they have a stronger bite pressure.
These two myths are just that.
Myths.
Research has been conducted to scientifically prove that Pitbulls and other Bully breeds are not born with a “killer” jaw structure, nor are they equipped with the capability of “lock jaw.” In fact, the National Geographic study performed in 2005 tested the bite pressure (in pounds per square inch) on several dog breeds to compare.
The study conducted the bite test on German Shepherds, Rottweilers, and American Pitbull Terriers.
Of the three dog breeds tests, the American Pitbull Terrier demonstrated the least amount of pressure from jaw force.
In fact, domestic dogs, in general, display 320 pounds of pressure per square inch.
This compared to the 120 pounds of bite pressure per square inch by humans.
To put it in further perspective, Great White Sharks have a bite pressure of over 2000 pounds per square inch.
While Pitbulls cannot compare to the bite force from a Great White Shark, their jaw strength is still impressive.
Knowing how strong a dog’s bite can be, we can understand why chew toys are a fantastic substitution for your favorite pair of shoes when your dog is experiencing boredom.
Now, this does not mean that just any chew toy will do.
There are thousands of chew toys on the market today, but not all of them are suitable for your Pitbull.
The following are some of the best chew toys on the market today that will not only entertain your pooch when you cannot but they should also withstand his 320-pounds per square inch bite force!
A Quick Final Glance
Every canine companion should have a chew toy that keeps their jaws strong and their teeth clean.
As they grow, pups may become more aggressive with their toys, and their mouths may be able to handle a more intense toy like the ones listed above.
Choose an age appropriate, size adequate and hardiness appropriate chew toy for your particular size and age of your dog breed.
It is also recommended that you observe your dog while he plays with his chew toy so that you can quickly remove the toy if it becomes damaged or torn.
