A Uniquely Shaped Rubber Chew Toy for Medium to Large Power Chewers
The KONG CoreStrength Bow Tie in Medium/Large is a heavy-duty chew toy designed for medium to large dogs with powerful chewing instincts.

A textured exterior surface adds chewing variety and supports dental hygiene.

Material and Construction
The KONG CoreStrength Bow Tie MD/LG is built around a multilayered rubber core with reinforced internal layers that add extra toughness beyond standard KONG rubber construction. This layered approach distributes chewing force across the core, reducing compression wear and extending the toy’s usable life under sustained chewing pressure from medium and large breeds. The textured exterior surface varies the chewing experience and provides incidental dental benefit during use. Durability is positioned as heavy duty, appropriate for moderate to aggressive chewers and power chewers in medium to large breeds.
Texture, Size, and Play Duration Guidance
The textured exterior provides tactile interest that helps maintain chewing engagement over time. The bow tie shape’s multiple lobes give medium to large dogs natural grip points to work from, which can extend individual chewing sessions compared to simpler single-grip formats. The MD/LG size is proportioned for mid-to-large breeds, providing a substantial, grippable toy that holds up to stronger jaw pressure. Play duration will vary based on individual chew intensity — moderate chewers will typically engage for extended sessions, while power chewers should be monitored and the toy inspected regularly for wear.
Play Style and Functional Use
As a chew toy, the KONG CoreStrength Bow Tie is primarily designed for sustained, multi-angle chewing engagement. The bow tie shape allows medium to large dogs to grip different sections of the toy and reposition naturally during chewing, extending the session without requiring pet parent involvement. As a fetch toy, the bow tie shape produces an unpredictable roll and bounce that adds chase interest during toss-and-retrieve play with larger, more active breeds.
Safety, Usage, and Care Guidance
- Moderate supervision is recommended, particularly during initial use with power chewers
- Inspect regularly for signs of compression, cracking, or surface wear
- Replace if the toy shows significant structural damage to prevent ingestion of rubber fragments
- Confirm the MD/LG size is appropriate for your dog’s breed and jaw strength
- Store in a clean, dry location when not in use
Cleaning and Maintenance
Wipe clean with a damp cloth after use. Hand wash with mild soap and warm water for deeper cleaning. Allow to air dry fully before returning to your dog. Avoid high-heat cleaning methods that may affect the rubber core integrity.
