Best fetch ball ever
A few years ago…you could not find a fetch toy that was soft, floats, and does not tear up…soft and does not tear up are complete opposites…until I found the jolly soccer ball-8th wonder of the world.But this fetch ball now is the 9th wonder. It seems to be made out of the same material, my dog loves to chew on soft things while playing, and this ball has not torn up at all. The teeth sink into the soft plastic but is completely restored when done. My dog could chew through a cast iron skillet lol.Flight. Another incredible thing is the flight. This is a lighter ball…the other lighter balls I used reduce the distance by about 25% which is ok, but not as good as a heavier ball (that sinks into the grass and is hard to find) This ball is light, bright yellow-vert easily seen in the distance, but does not seem to lose any distance. It is soft so my dog loves it more than the others (so we can get him to get rid of his pinned-up energy) and the flight is great. It also is the most accurate flying fetch ball, I can place it anywhere I want it to go. Like a golf ball with dimples to keep the wind from slowing and turning it, this one has a few ripples-this must be why it goes so far and I can place it accurately…because it cuts through the wind so easily.I have tried dozens of fetch balls, this is the best one ever at a great price…won’t use another from here on out.

Weird how strong this ball is
I have a pit with a massive head who can only really have black Kong toys. This thing he can’t totally chew in seconds. If given all day he would, but perfect for fetch!

Perfect For Fetch
I am very surprised my dog has not shredded this. He is one of those dogs that shreds supposedly indestructible toys in less than five minutes. And he certainly sank his teeth into this ball as soon as he got his paws on it. Literally. He bit into it, and it got stuck on his teeth. He had to use his paws to get it unstuck from his mouth.If I left this with him, I am sure he would shred it, but we use it to play fetch. When we play fetch with tennis balls, they last about two throws before he pops them. Baseballs last about seven or eight throws before he has torn the skins off them.But this fragile feeling, lightweight foam ball? It has lasted for weeks so far, and has a long life ahead of it. Downright mystifying.And the cool thing about it is if you accidentally bounce this thing off a neighbor’s car while playing fetch, it does no harm except to leave a gob of mouth goo perhaps.

My gsd loves it
This ball Is truly amazing. My gsd can rip everything except air and this toy has been with her for I believe over a year now. I only remembered to write a review because I’m going to order another one. The ball isn’t broke or even close to end of life, just need another because she likes to fetch with 2 toys on rotation.

Our heavy chewer can’t put a dent in these
We have two dogs, one about 25 pounds and one about 40. The bigger dog is a very heavy chewer and will destroy any toy we give her within about 5 minutes. While we don’t allow them to sit around and chew these balls, they have no marks on them at all from either weather or rough play outdoors with both dogs. The smaller dog loves to fetch while the bigger dog loves to steal the fetched toy and play keepaway. In the months since we ordered these we have had no issues with durability at all, and the dogs love them. I do wish you could pick the color, but the dogs don’t seem to care about color so its not a big deal. We wound up with one purple and one yellow, and the yellow definitely gets more attention.

Love this!
We were told about this ball by a K-9 pet store. We have a GSP that can rip through most any toy or ball we give her. However these balls hold up very well and she can not rip it apart. We have bought several of these ballls and will continue to buy them!

Best ball around!
I have 2 large super aggressive chewing dogs and this is the ONLY ball they donât chew on and instead actually chase it and fetch it. We have other balls for them that donât seem to interest them at all but this ball is a winner. I donât know why they donât chew on it like other balls but Iâm very happy they actually chase it and fetch it. Itâs semi soft and maybe about the size of a softball and I have a large yard and this ball goes far. I currently have 4 of them and I will never buy another ball again except for this one

Best toy for my dog!
So far, this is the best toy I have purchased for my dog. My dog is a toy destroyer. She rips through Kongs within an hour. She is a ripper, meaning she tries to rip off little pieces one by one of any toy where she can get a grip on it. It is nearly impossible for her to get a good enough grip on this ball to do the same. I made sure to buy the biggest ball to prevent that. It is very lightweight. It does have a lot of little dents on it from her teeth, but, so far, it has lasted the longest out of any toy we have purchased for her. I was actually getting a bit sad for her because I couldn’t buy her any toys so she didn’t really have anything to play with. She loves this ball, and is constantly bringing it to me so I can throw it for her. I will definitely purchase another one of these products when this one gets obliterated.

Material ótimo e resistente

Lo utilizo para mi pastor belga hembra. La escogimos por que en el mercado es la pelota mas duradera que hemos encontrado. Juega con ella todo el dÃa y todo el dÃa la está mordiendo. Para nosotros le dura esa pelata entre 4 – 6 meses. Lo compramos por que asi evitamos que ella esté estresada ya que si no se poner a morder zapatos y las patas de la mesa.Mi perra tiene 3 años.

This ball is the perfect size and texture for my 85lb senior German shepherd. He has had most of his upper teeth pulled from dental disease so he can’t chew anything too hard or it’s traumatic for his gums. This ball is firm and durable but has give to it – it holds up well to his constant chewing. He still has his fangs and they have left tons of dents in the ball but there is not a single tear or scratch. It’s also very lightweight so when he catches it I don’t feel like he is getting punched in the gums! Great purchase and I think we will get a lot of life out of it. I even bought a second one to keep at my parents house and I’m thinking about buying another one for a backup! I haven’t found any other balls/toys quite like it

Mon chien adore, elle s’adapte parfaitement à son lance balle et elle est résistante

Our pup gives this 5 stars. Much better on teeth than tennis balls which have worn them down. She is a chewer so usually a ball has about a weeks lifespan at best. This seems to not be able to be chewed. Worst case it gets some teeth holes but doesnât break apart.Size : itâs about the size of a tennis ball. I would say for small to small/medium dogs. We have a cocker spaniel and she is ok but I prefer the bigger one as I worry she will end up chocking on it.Weight : itâs foam so not heavy but super dense and throws well.Value for money : more likely to lose than be destroyed. Itâs the best buy we have done for our ball obsessed pup!No bounce or squeak as a dense foam!
