Description

The KONG Floppy Knots Hippo is a plush dog toy built around an internal knotted rope, giving it a long, floppy shape that's designed for shaking and tugging play.

It's a good fit for dogs who enjoy plush toys with some texture and movement, rather than a firm, structured shape. The knotted rope running through the toy gives dogs something satisfying to grip and thrash about, while the squeakers add an extra layer of engagement during play.

Pet Variety stocks the Floppy Knots Hippo for owners after a lighter, more casual chew toy — one that leans into a dog's instincts to naturally shake and "de-stuff" without being a heavy-duty chew product.

Why We Love It

We like that this toy is straightforward about what it's for — floppy, textured, squeaky play rather than tough chewing. It's a nice option for dogs that enjoy plush toys but tend to go through them quickly, since the knotted rope skeleton gives it a bit more structure than a standard stuffed toy.

The minimal stuffing is a practical touch, too. Less filling means less mess if your dog does eventually get into the seams, which is one less thing to worry about during play.

It's a simple, honest toy — no bells and whistles beyond what it's designed to do, which is give dogs an entertaining, instinct-satisfying play session.

Playtime Tip

Keep an eye on the seams

With any plush toy, it's worth checking the seams and stitching every so often, especially after a big play session. If you notice any fraying or loose threads starting to form, it's a good idea to set the toy aside rather than risk your dog getting into the stuffing.
