Known for making toys for destructive dogs, we recently picked up the Kong Bear with the hopes of finding middle ground between the non-destructible rubber toys and a cotton-filled plush toy that gets destroyed all too quickly. Find out how it stacked up.

Since the last check-in, we got to bring Markus into the office for a full day of work, we won an Instagram contest, we gave Markus the Kong Bear (and then had to quickly take it away) and we zone in on Markus' inability to catch.

In the early days when we were starting to leave Markus at home alone, the Kong Wobbler played a big role in our training. The Kong Wobbler has allowed us to stimulate Markus mentally and create a distraction for him.

Since the last check-in, we've learned that not all dogs get excited when their owners come home, so we caught Markus on video as we came home. We also noticed his orderliness and we discuss how we pick out his toys as a slightly destructive dog.
