Originating from an anecdote. Fritz, the founder's German Shepherd, dropped a piece of rubber torn from an old car onto his owner's lap. The material and the shape sparked the owner's inspiration, and the KONG Classic toy was born.
Since then, the brand has offered on the market an XXL range of KONG dog toy and cat toys. Originally all rubber, it has diversified and now offers a range of KONG plush for dogs, treats, KONG ball, KONG squeaky toy for dogs, etc.
