Highlighted Reviews
"Pup loved it. But it did not last long. I took the toy away when we were not playing together but it still fell apart pretty quick."
"Opened the box, cut the toy out of the package, threw it to my golden retriever, and the ball immediately came off the rope. Luckily he likes to play with the rope, but if you’re expecting the ball to stay on there are better options out there."

Given the durability issues and lack of positive feedback, it is advisable to look for alternative toys that are more robust and better suited for active dogs.
