FAQs

What size KONG Lock-it should I get?

Choose a size based on your dog's size and the amount of food you want to feed. Small pods are great for smaller dogs or snacks, while larger pods are for bigger meals.

Can I use wet food in the KONG Lock-it?

While the KONG Lock-it can be used with wet food, it might be messy. It's best to use dry kibble or dry treats to keep the puzzle clean and easy to use.

How do I clean the KONG Lock-it?

Disassemble the puzzle and wash the pods with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely.

Is the KONG Lock-it dishwasher safe?

It is recommended to wash the KONG Lock-it by hand to prolong the life of the product.

What if my dog chews the KONG Lock-it?

Supervise your dog while they play with the toy. If your dog is a very aggressive chewer, the toy may not withstand extensive chewing.

How many pods can I connect?

You can connect as many pods as you like to increase the challenge. However, consider your dog's attention span and the available space.

Can I use the KONG Lock-it for weight management?

Yes, it can help. By slowing down your dog's eating, the KONG Lock-it aids in better digestion and helps to control food intake.

Troubleshooting

Dog is not interested in the puzzle.

Introduce the puzzle with high-value treats to pique their interest. Initially, make it easier by leaving a pod unlocked.

Difficulty in locking/unlocking the pods.

Ensure the pods are aligned correctly before twisting. Try applying some lubricant (e.g., vegetable oil) to the locking mechanism.

Puzzle is easily destroyed.

Supervise your dog during the initial use. If your dog is an aggressive chewer, consider the puzzle as a temporary solution.
