KONG - Snuzzles Kiddos Sloth (For Dogs)

Description When we talk about "enrichment," we usually think of puzzles, but KONG has redefined tactile enrichment with the Snuzzles Kiddos Sloth. While it looks like a standard plush, the technical engineering lies in the 94% Polyester / 6% Latex ratio. The latex provides a dense mouthfeel—a specific resistance that triggers the jaw's natural reward centers—making every "chomp" feel more substantial than a traditional hollow plush toy. The full-body squeaker is a masterstroke for smaller breeds. Most toys have a small, plastic "heart" that dogs have to hunt for; the Snuzzles Sloth is the squeaker. No matter where a Yorkie or a Frenchie grabs, they are rewarded with a long, resonant sound. The flat-body geometry is also highly intentional. It allows small-mouthed dogs to achieve a full "locking" grip that rounder balls or thick plushies simply don't allow. It’s light enough for high-speed indoor fetch but weighted enough to feel like a "catch." Despite the "Sloth" name, this toy is built for high-tempo indoor play, followed by a transition into a "soothing snuggle" companion thanks to the ultra-soft Kiddos fabric. It’s plump. It’s loud. Engagement, delivered flat. No more hunting. The ultimate squeak. Product Spec Current Detail Pet-Parent Value Dimensions Approx. 6" x 6" Ideal "mouth-size" for breeds under 25lbs.

Pro-Tip The "Scented Soother" Hack: If your dog suffers from separation anxiety, place the Snuzzles Sloth inside your clean laundry basket for 24 hours. The Kiddos plush fibers are exceptionally good at trapping your scent. When you head out for work, give them the "Scented Sloth"—the combination of your familiar smell and the soothing tactile feel can significantly lower cortisol levels during your absence. Frequent Asked Questions Is the KONG Snuzzles Sloth machine washable? Yes, you can hand-wash it with mild soap or place it in a delicates bag on a cold cycle, though air-drying is recommended to preserve the squeaker's internal latex. Is this sloth toy good for large dogs? While large dogs love the squeak, it is designed for small breeds. A large, powerful chewer could easily puncture the full-body squeaker in a single session. What makes the KONG Snuzzles different from a regular plush toy? The main difference is the full-body squeaker and the dense mouthfeel, which provides more resistance and auditory feedback than typical fiber-filled toys. What Pet Parents Are Saying About This Product The KONG Snuzzles Sloth has become a staple for apartment-dwelling pet parents from Montreal to Mississauga. The "Big Win" this year is the low-frequency "honk" squeak, which provides the auditory stimulation dogs crave without the high-pitched pierce that drives humans to distraction during workday meetings. The "Soggy Sloth" syndrome. Because the entire body is essentially a giant squeaker wrapped in velvety plush, it acts as a massive sponge. If your dog is a heavy drooler, this sloth will require a frequent "spa day" in the laundry to avoid becoming a heavy, damp brick. See All Items by KONG >
