Normally..I'll use the opposite side of the spoon or fork(handle)..WHich we hold our spoon..Then use it to spread the peanut butter inside the hole of the KONG toy..or another rubber toys if u wan to...There's no need to get his/her attention everytime..Once u let him/her lick it once...He/she will keep licking it till the very last..About the peanut butter right...U can buy the better one by reading the ingredient..Its better to be without salt and sugar...All peanut butter are for human...But u've to take the resposiblity by reading the ingredient..best is INGREDIENT : PEANUT (ONLY)..Like i say..dun buy from pet shop..cos those are inside the bottle are preservative...alot of chemical stuff..About the amount of peanut butter right..U've to see how long ur dog takes to finish the whole peanut butter inside the toy..If he finishes quickly before u can finish grooming him/her..Spread again..Normally for puppy..a half to 3/4 peanut butter shld be enuff to groom it..But shld u spread alot of peanut butter..Reduce his/her amount of meal later..(just reduce abit will do) Cos eat alot of peanut butter will grow abit fat..WHich is not suitable for a puppy diet as obesity can get serious when ur dog grows up...The peanut butter finished already..Wait till i buy a new one..I'll post it to u..=)) Hope these will help.....

Actually daniel..I got my peanut butter from singapore..its from "Cold storage"...Its a super market...i got it from 7+ sing dollar..Even in singapore hard to find these kind of peanut butter..So,in msia..i tink its hard for ppl like us..Cos i travel to singapore once a week..So can buy all those stuff..Even KONG toys...Msia (JB) also have limited range of sizes...singapore easy to get..So if u happen to go to singapore...Try to visit all those pet shops..All the best.. i'll post the pic to u asap..probably weekend when i travel to singapore..Try to check this forum on weekend.. hoho

hi Ken, im staying in KL and nearby my house there is a 'Cold Storage' supermarket, but im not sure whether nowadays still there or not, but i think even the Cold Storage S'pore selling the peanut butter u mentioned, might not selling in Cold Storage Msia.
the Kong toy selling at pet's wonderland cost a bomb, after discount around RM30+ if not mistaken.
so good can travel to Spore so often, u r Johorian rite?
thanks in advance for the photo going to upload, i thank u on behalf of my puppy..
will try all my best to look for the same peanut butter in malaysia...just for my puppy...

aiyoo so kang kor.......i myself also never so hard working go look for specific peanut butter brand to eat.....betul ho-mia mannnn ur pup.
If I were u, I will try the cold storage in Bangsar or KLCC. Must go to places with banyak banyak expats. Chances are better u find them there.
Anyway little bit of salt is ok kua. Not say everyday u give the fella right.... my dogs i bagi Skippy whenever I eat PB&J sandwich. They get to lick my spoon clean. Hahaha

ya, but i'll still prefer those without salt at all, later if drop fur then big trouble edi.
if contain sugar, will caused doggy dropping fur too? my previous boxer i'll spread some sugar sometimes on his food, nothing happen to him...but duno whether because of the sugar or what, he was hyper active.
Thanks for the suggestion Ken and Steffy, appreciate it so much...
hopefully i can found those without salt and sugar 1.

sugar-high like getting high from alcohol/drugs lah....but this one is thru super high sugar intake.
I never tried whitening shampoo before cos my dogs are not white white. They are buffed. Yeah whitenining shampoo all quite expensive lah.....no harm trying lor. Burn 50 this time, if no change, then don buy liao lah. But such thing ah, cannot see effect in 1 or 2 bath only lah. Sure have to use a few bottles only can see effect punya. Hahahahaahahahaha

as for shampoo right...dun bath ur dog to often..the fur will get dry up..cos u wash away the 'oil' in their fur-skin there...den cause the fur to dried up...so..maybe bath once a month lor...if really smelly...use powder...powder works wonder on dog...there're also whitenening powder..maybe u can try looking...rather then buying the shampoo which will cost u a bomb...and also...bathing everytime is not good for ur dog...especially puppy..try to bath them only when their are 3 months later..All whitenening shampoo have diff method to "white up" ur dog..some is nutrient up the root..then like steffy said..must wait until ur dog shed up for the new fur to grow..then only will u see white white fur...HohO...Some is very strong de so-called 'bleach'..Make sure u get the right stuff my fren...=))..All the best...

Thanks Ken and Steffy for the suggestion.
i read from some web site, they suggest us to bath our dog once a month or longer, im wondering, if 1 week didnt bath him, even my neighbour also can smell it edi (this is the case happened on my previous doggy)...
really confuse, quite hard to take care/maintain a white fluffy doggy...can i found the powder at usual pet shop? is it really in powder form? wont the doggy sneeze while im cleaning him with the powder??
i think i'll seek for the suggestion from the breeder when i go and bring my puppy home nex month, hooray...3 more weeks later from now i can have my puppy edi.

I guess there is some truth to what you read on the web about bathing ur dog as little as possible.
Really depends on u as the owner lah. When my friend first dumped Gizmo to me, almost everyday have to bath tau.....almost every 24hrs have to bath cos he sleep on his own pee lah, step on his own poo lah. How lah to tahan like that. My other dog Rascal wont even get close to Gizmo cos he stinks kua and gets all stressed up whenever we place Gizmo close to him.
So I bath Gizmo eveyrtime he stinks. All those cologne all tak boleh pakai punya when the dog is smelly. It doesnt mask the smell at all. So no choice, have to bath. Then slowly slowly stretched to 3 days and now 1 week once. 1 week once bath also the color of his water is dirtier than Rascal who baths 2 times a month. So imagine lah how to bath twice a year. Sure I pengsan lor......
If u dont want ur dog's fur to get stripped off their oil and yet cannot tahan not bathing the fella for more than 5 days, use a milder shampoo lor.

haha, yes, like ur case, sure must bath often...pity ur Gizmo....even ur other doggy oso dun wanna get near to him.
the smell is not the main concern for me, as long as its not that strong, im just worry the fur become yellowish, FYI my puppy is a westie, so im headache now on the way to maintain his white fur...even he will arrive my home by next 3 weeks but now im already started to worry about this... because i saw a lot of 'west highland yellowish terrier'...their hair become yellowish edi, not that handsome extremely worry about him now...
