In a Nutshell

  • Good rope durability
  • Poor tennis ball durability
  • Good for tug-of-war but watchdog that likes to destroy

Quick Verdict

The Greenbone Double Knot Rope Tennis Balls Dog Toy is a mixed bag. While the rope portion is sturdy and great for tug-of-war games, the tennis ball attachment is frequently torn off by dogs, especially heavy chewers. The toy is enjoyable and well-made, but the ball's durability is a significant issue.

Highlighted Reviews

β€” Linda

"Although my dog loved her rope toy with two tennis balls, this toy is very nice. Its very well made , pretty, and flies very nicely. Scarlett loves her new toy."

β€” MissKarma

"I had high hopes for this toy, but my 9 month old Boxer had the ball broken in a half hour. He really like, so he’s somewhat miffed at me for taking it away."

Bottom Line
