I’m feeling rather accomplished, making my own stuffing for dog Kongs! (It doesn’t take much to amuse me these days.) I soaked about a cup of dog food in about two cups of water for a couple hours, then to further cut calories added pumpkin and canned chicken and blended the mixture in my food processor. The result was a paste that was easy to pack in the Kongs, which I then stuck in the freezer. The dogs enjoy them too! I’m trying to be sparing with the peanut butter since I recently read that the high fat can trigger pancreatitis, and these keep them occupied for a good while!


I had extra stuffing, so I put it in a bag in the fridge so I can re-stuff the Kongs after the dogs clean them out! (And after I run them through the dishwasher, because, ew.)
