Kick Fetch Ball Dog Toy, Small (6 Inch)

4 out of 5 of my pit bulls love this ball. I wrote about how they love the football style version of this ball earlier. This brand makes awesome and durable toys for dogs! My fifth pit bull won't chase anything that isn't breathing on it's own. He looks at us as nuts kicking this ball around the yard. I look like I have a soccer team of pit bulls playing in the yard as we kick this ball all over the place. The ball is also easy for the dogs to grip with their teeth, and they have a lot of fun playing chase once one grabs the ball. Warning! This is NOT an indestructible toy despite its durability. If you leave your dog alone with it, expect it to be partially destroyed one tiny piece at a time. I recommend supervising your dog during play to extend the life of this fantastic toy. We are on our second replacement...four pit bulls playing tug of war truly puts a hurting on any toy...but this has lasted the longest. Update 20170708: Yes, still 5 stars. I truly need to set this product up for monthly delivery because 3 of my pit bulls go through this or the football at a rate of about one a week. When I say 'ball,ball,' they get all excited and run for the door or to where we have the ball stowed. I have to stow it 7 ft off the floor level to keep it out of reach from complete annihilation. The 4th pit bull, Momma Bella, has since backed off playing as her 3 pups are now full grown and are very competitive for the ball. She prefers playing one on one with us so long as she isn't being body slammed by the younger dogs. I think Rugby is probably the closest description of what my younger dogs are doing when playing for this amazing toy. I have tried introducing other toys for play, but seriously, this is what they dream about as they sleep at night. The larger kickball is a challenge for my smallest dog, our runt in the litter, so we make some exceptions to feign throw the ball in one direction and toss it behind us to allow her more time to grip it with her mouth before being chased by her brothers for it. We do try to give each dog time with the ball each play period about two or three different times throughout the day. To keep the balls lasting at least a week, we cannot allow any one dog to keep the ball for any length of period or they start chewing on it to soften it and create tears in it for easier gripping during catch. The smaller football is a lot easier on our runt to get and run, but her larger brothers struggle with the unpredictable bounce when the ball is still mostly firm and intact. Alternating between the kick ball and the foot ball has been really great for exercise and mental stimulation of our dogs. I cannot praise this product enough. BTW the color choice is spot on...why? When they do manage to separate the inner foam ball from the outer orange and blue shell, they ignore the foam ball and play with the shredded outer covering. I know dogs can see limited colors and blue being one of them. I am not sure if orange is as well, but they absolutely love this and easily find the new ones in our workshop storage area against all the other stuff we have in storage if we aren't careful.

Someone gave my German shepherd one of these a couple of years ago, and she finally managed to destroy it with frequent (very frequent) play. I wasn’t going to replace it due to the price, but I caught a sale and ordered her one for Christmas. She’s obsessed with it. It’s easy for her to carry around in her mouth, but it holds up surprisingly well. I like that I can kick or toss it. We use it inside and out. Because it’s soft, it does less damage inside than many of her toys, even though it’s larger. It’s perfect for the right dog. I don’t think it would hold up to a dog that plays REALLY rough with its toys, but for most it would be fine.

We have a Chessie/Lab Mix and a German Shepherd and toy selection is a process in our house. The Chessie loves balls - tennis balls, soccer balls, squeaker balls etc. The German Shepherd on the other hand will chew up and swallow just about any toy he can. We no longer have stuffed toys (especially ones with squeakers) in our house. This is a big kick ball that looks like a giant tennis ball so our Chessie almost started drooling when he saw it. The GSD loves to fetch it but then brings it back to the Chessie to play tug-o-war with it. Considering the abuse this ball has taken I would say it has held up really well. They receive it for Christmas and it’s not July. Considering I once had to take a “Super Strong” *(and expensive) toy back to the pet store after the GSD pratically chewed it in half within and hour of me bringing home, I’d say going on 8 months with this one is great. Now don’t get me wrong it has some major wear and quite a few tears at this point, but I have yet to find anything my GSD can’t destroy. Around our house if it lasts more than a month it gets a stamp of approval and we probably have bought several replacement of that same item. We already have this one on the list to be replaced soon. It’s too much fun to be able to kick the ball around with a couple of dogs. Plus it’s nice to be able to kick the ball around ever now and then instead of having to grab the slobbery ball to throw it. This thing supposedly glows in the dark where the white rubberized part is, but honestly we never play out outside in the dark with it. It is indented where the white rubberized part is, so it’s pretty easy for the dogs to pick it up and carry it around ( or play tug with it in our boys case) This is a nice alternative to a soccer ball for them too. They liked playing witha soccer bal but would usually pop it within a week. This ball is a dense foam core so there’s no popping it. They love it and I would recommend it. We’ll be on our second one soon. Go play ball with your dog!

Solid and well made. Really love the chuckit brand all my massive shepards toys are chuckit now. Leave in the sun to charge up the glow. Just not too much that it might damage the fabric.

Questa palla è molto bella peccato che mi è arrivata di un diametro di cm 14 al prezzo di 30 euro e nelle foto la fanno vedere di diametro cm 19. Tempo fa ne avevo comprata una di diametro cm 19 in negozio al prezzo di 40 euro. Il prodotto è ottimo sono rimasta delusa della dimensione, a quel prezzo non l'avrei acquistata. Ora la tengo perché il mio cane ne va' pazzo e l'ha vista.

Destroyed quickly, but loves it. I really wish it was more durable. I've purchased another toy for my Hulk from Chuckit! and it's long-lasting, safe indoors, and loads of fun. He can chew it forever and hasn't made a dent. He's had it for 2 weeks now and we play fetch outdoors and indoors with it... the ChuckIt! Ultra Ball Dog Toy, Durable High Bounce Floating Rubber Dog Ball. He loves it! I just wanted a bigger version of it but this one did not last unfortunately.

A bola é muito boa, além de ser leve é muito boa para o cachorro pegar. O formato dela possibilita a pegada do cão mesmo sendo uma bola grande. Já é a minha segunda e não porque a primeira estragou, mas sim porque tenho medo de ficar sem de tanto que ela é amada. Mas lembrando não é um brinquedo para deixar a disposição, ela deve ser usada sob supervisão.

I originally bought one of these in August 2020 for my lurcher. She loves it and it has proved to be highly durable. The photo shows the old chewed up one next to the brand new one I just bought. The old one was 16 months old and was still being played with despite being well used. I just decided it was finally time to get a new one. When I first purchased the original I was a bit hesitant due to the price. I've never paid so much for a ball before! However, she's got so much use out of it I am now well satisfied that it was great value for money! I had surgery and was unable to take her out for walks for over a month. This was fantastic for keeping her occupied in the garden during this time.
