That odd Kong℠ dog toy has an odd origin
Kongs were developed in the 1970s by a 25-year-old Colorado auto mechanic named Joe Markham who was trying to get his dog, Fritz, a retired police dog, to stop chewing on rocks.
…have a design based on a rubber suspension part from a VW bus. Markham’s dog enjoyed chewing on various car parts he found in the garage, but was specially interested in a bulbous, hollow black part he found.
some other Kong fun facts
(hnnn …no idea that one tradition is to stuff them with peanut butter)

Also (cutely) called the small screaming armadillo, crying armadillo, or small hairy armadillo. The adults are handsome too (to my eye), with flowing fur and the sleek face and front claws.

Looks like he/she is gearing up for battle. Should be in a Redwall Spin-off.

So, that’s why dog’s chase cars, eh?
That would make a great hood ornament for a fancy old roadster.
Screaming internally.

I can’t decide if it looks more like a turd or a butt-plug.
