KONG Dog Toys Wild Knots Tiger

A striped plush tiger with a knotted rope threaded through it, the KONG Wild Knots Tiger is made for dogs that like to shake a toy hard and then fall asleep on it. Stocked in Small/Medium and Medium/Large. The rope core does the job a plain soft toy cannot — it holds up to being pulled — while the low stuffing level means a split seam is a handful of filling rather than a snowstorm across the lounge. The body squeaks and crinkles, which restarts play once a dog has put the toy down.

• Internal knotted rope skeleton — the reason a plush toy can be tugged at all
• Squeak and crinkle — two sounds rather than one, so novelty lasts longer
• Minimal stuffing — less mess when the outer layer eventually goes
• Striped plush shell — soft enough to be used as a pillow between games
• Two sizes — Small/Medium and Medium/Large

Size and materials

KONG lists the composition as 70% polyester, 28% cotton and 2% plastic squeaker, with the Small/Medium at roughly 20 x 9 x 22 cm and about 100 g. Made in China. Spot clean by hand and air dry; keep it for gentle to moderate chewers under supervision and retire it once the outer layer opens.
