This dog ball got us really excited! And turned out to one of the best dog toys we’ve tested so far.
One of our dogs, Tommy, is completely obsessed with tennis balls but they are usually not very resistant, so we keep on having to buy new ones.
Also, to be honest, picking up a tennis ball after it’s rolled in the dirt and got slobbered on isn’t great, so we’ve been looking for a better replacement.
ChuckIt is the best dog ball.
The medium version has the same size as a regular tennis ball, but it comes in different sizes and shapes, all in bright colors that make it easy for us to spot at a distance, which we think is clever.
The first thing you notice is how bouncy it is, it reaches a really good height! And, due to its light weight, it’s safe for dogs to catch mid-air, which is always a good thing for impatient dogs.
You can also use it in the water, it will float nicely since it doesn’t actually absorb it.
It isn’t an indestructible dog ball, however, due to its extra-thick natural rubber, it is much sturdier than most balls, making it last longer. It meant our dogs used it as chew toy and didn’t ruin it.
They did find it difficult to chew on at first, it is a hard ball. But once they got the hang of it, they loved it. And it worked even better for milder dogs, ones that love a good ball but aren’t actually obsessed with it.
Fetch is a fun game for dogs.
Another big aspect of the ChuckIt! Ultra Ball is that it’s so much easier to clean in comparison to other balls, and its rubbery surface means it wouldn’t become the yucky spitball we’re used to dealing with after being in the dog’s mouth for a few seconds.
Don’t get us wrong, dirt and drool will make a mess out of anything and I would advise that you use the laucher if you want to keep your hands clean, but all you need to do is clean it with a bit of water and it will be ready to go.
Pretty cool, right? We think so too!
