Your brand-new puppy may have many skills — such as convincing you to do just about anything for him with those irresistible eyes. But coordination may not be one of those skills. So how do you burn off that young canine energy if the interactive toys for adult dogs are just too big? With the KONG Puppy Flyer, you can start games of fetch at an early age, while setting the stage for a lifetime of healthy activity for your puppy.

The KONG Puppy Flyer is your basic rubber Frisbee-like toy, but as with many of the products from the high-quality KONG line, the details are what make this playtime piece a winner. The size is designed especially for young dogs — at 7 inches across, the scale of the toy is not intimidating to smaller dogs, allowing them to catch the flyer confidently without becoming overwhelmed by it.

Also, the rubber of the KONG Puppy Flyer is softer than the material that you would find in similar discs. This helps younger dogs grasp and hold onto the toy, even if your canine’s canines don’t have quite the bite that they’ll develop in later years.

Another positive aspect of the KONG Puppy Flyer is the price. The toy sells from under $7 during some online sales, and with the sturdiness of the KONG construction and material, you and your dog will be getting more than your fair share of wear out of this pleasing puppy toy.

Pros: Well made for younger dogs; sturdy but softer than similar discs.

Cons: None.
