Maverick got a great box from Kong, after buying the Heartguard and Nexguard for him from the vet. They sent a link for him to get the box from Kong for FREE! I was very excited when the box came, (Maverick was too, since he loves his Kongs!) as I have been filling the Kong (s) and putting them into the freezer. When I went to throw the paper away, I was amazed to find recipes from them on the other side of the page! WOO HOO! (And you can see recipes we have used in a prior blog post on Enrichment...)
Then I went and looked on line and found some more recipes...so I figured you all might like to see some of them, and I figured I would share! Again, credit goes to Kong for posting them!
