KONG Training Dummy

THE FIRST STEP TOWARD A LIFETIME OF SOLID RETRIEVES

Every great retriever starts somewhere, and the KONG Training Dummy is where a lot of them begin. This highly visible, large foam dummy is a simple, effective toss-and-retrieve toy that teaches dogs to use a soft-mouth carry from the very first lesson. Floating on water as easily as it lands on grass, it's built to take training from the back garden straight to the lake without missing a step.

Why it's a great choice

• Tough, sturdy foam construction: Built from durable EVA foam designed for long-lasting training or play sessions.

• Highly visible design: An orange finish makes it easy for dogs to spot during fast-moving retrieves.

• Floats on water: Suitable for use on land or in water, extending where and how training can happen.

• Teaches soft-mouth carry: Encourages dogs to retrieve gently, an essential skill for any working or sporting dog.

Key benefits for your Dog

• Builds foundational training skills: A great first step for dogs learning the basics of toss-and-retrieve work.

• Suits training on land and water: Floating construction means lessons aren't limited to dry ground.

• Encourages gentle retrieving habits: Helps dogs develop a soft mouth carry that supports more advanced training later.

• Long-lasting for repeated sessions: Tough and sturdy enough to handle regular toss-and-retrieve practice.

An ideal starting point for dogs and owners beginning toss-and-retrieve training on land or in water.
