And what do you suggest putting inside it? I see you can buy biscuits for them but are they the best thing?

Yea I dont think they're too good for them, you could try peanut butter or meat paste with some pieces of fresh chicken or something simular!

Or even try cooking chicken or liver and mashing it up and filling the kong with that?

Re: He keeps screaming when in his crate and the door closes...

Well, we tried closing him in slightly earlier and staying with him whilst we watched tele. We then let him out again when he was quiet.

Back in his crate, but this time with a biscuit and a t-shirt I'd worn to bed for a week. We went to bed and after 5 minutes of moderate moaning he went quiet. We were then woken up at 1am by the whole house shaking! Quickly realised this was probably nothing to do with Hobo and we were awaking to the earth tremor!!!

Then woken back up at 6am by Hobo moaning so got up to let him out and straight away he wee'd in the garden!!!!

PROGRESS!!!

Thanks all....

If you do this each time then he will associate the door being closed as a good thing if there is a treat in store for him.
You could also try a night light when you go to bed or a radio left on quietly.
THats the best idea i think!
