KONG treats just dropped—if your dog sniffs first, guess who’ll miss out?

Dog-Approved Deliciousness or Total Drool Bomb?

I sniffed, I crunched, I judged—with every tooth and tail twitch. This week I took on a serious assignment (no squirrel distractions!): sniff-testing the latest hooman-friendly dog treats you lot seem to be drooling over almost as much as we are. The stakes? My taste buds. The reward? The glory of rating snacks the way only a Rottweiler with a gourmet gut can.

Why Hoomans Are Eating Our Treats (And Should You Be Worried?)

You ever turn around and see your hooman nibble the corner of your treat just to “see what it tastes like?” I have. And while slightly traumatising, it inspired this week’s very scientific research: What treats are safe for both you AND your hooman to sneak? (Don’t worry—I didn’t share, I just noted.)

These KONG treats are making waves in the snack bowl scene. Big crunch, bigger flavour, and even hoomans seem intrigued. But which one deserves pantry-level status, and which one gets buried under the lemon tree?

The Contenders: Thor’s Top Picks for Shared Snack Smiles

• KONG Ziggies: Savoury Chicken Chews
  Great for stuffing into your KONG toy, they clean your chompers while turning snack time into a challenge. The satisfaction of pulling one out is second only to hearing the treat bag crinkle.
  

  Final verdict: 5/5 paws—delicious crunch, clean breath, and I timed myself getting one out of my KONG... 17 seconds. Beat that.

• KONG Natural Snacks: Peanut Butter Bliss
  These smell so good even hoomans raise an eyebrow. Made for stuffing but also snackable straight from the paw—perfect reward after guarding the front window from the evil postman.
  

  Final verdict: 4/5 paws—tasty and chewy with just enough crumble. Knocked off one paw because Mum licked it. Still not over it.

• KONG Easy Treat: Peanut Butter Squeeze Sauce
  Think: gourmet paste meets treat delivery system. This one's a squirt-and-swoon situation. Perfect for training, distracting during bath time, or just because you looked particularly cute mid-zoomie.
  

  Final verdict: 5/5 slobbery grins—lickable joy in a can. Downside? No opposable thumbs. Upside? Hoomans act like waiters.

Advanced Doggy Math: Taste, Texture, Tail Wag

Each treat session was judged using highly complex metrics, like number of licks per second, backflip-to-beg ratio, and tail wag velocity (measured in wags-per-minute). I even used the Law of Treat-ivity: the more I drool before it hits the ground, the better the rating.

Snack Science: Treats that involve interaction (like stuffing into a KONG) last 3x longer and reduce hooman guilt when they “forget” your walk. Not naming names... Mum.

What This Means for Every Good Boy and Girl

You don’t just want a tasty bite—you want a treat that works as hard as your zoomies. Whether it’s cleaning teeth, calming nerves, or distracting from bath betrayal, these snacks do more than just taste good; they serve a purpose.

And let’s be honest, I’ve test-chewed my way through a lifetime supply of promises. Cheap treats crumble like my self-restraint near bacon. But these? Built for serious snackers. No fluff. No fuss. Just tail-wag efficiency.

Snack Smarter, Drool Louder

Used to be, “treat time” meant hoping the kibble bag split open. Now? Now it’s gourmet, purpose-built doggy goodness that hoomans actually want in the house. (Bonus points if your hooman shares. Minus points if they chew first 🤢.)

So hoomans, the next time you open that pantry-with-the-goodies, reach for something that respects your dog's bite, brain, and breath. Bonus: you’re less likely to deal with suspicious floor crumbles or guilt-poo faces.

Go on… treat your dog like the snack genius they are.

Keep sniffing what matters,
