Highlighted Reviews
"Our American Shepard, a 34 lb. dog will not tug on the ball or handle, he only wants to bite on the rope for tugging. A plain rope tied in a loop with a knot works just as well."
"Within 20 minutes of taking it out of the box and my dog playing with it, it was broken."
Bottom Line
This toy is a great buy if you re looking for something for light play since it comes in various colours. However, this product may not last as long as its competitors due to the thinness of the rope and the ball getting damaged easily, though most users find that it lasts long with light play. The size of the rope is fitting for all dog sizes, placed in the dog toy industry to allow puppies a long lasting toy.
