What it does
A soccer style fetch ball, about 8 inches across, made of rubber and canvas over a foam core, with deep grooves so a big dog can carry it and it floats.
- Foam core keeps its shape, so there is nothing to deflate or pop
- Deep grooves let a dog grab and carry a ball this size
- Floats for pool and lake games
- Bright orange and blue for spotting in open fields
- Can be hosed off after muddy play
A good pick for large dogs that chase a kicked ball in the yard, at the park or in water. The trade off is lifespan with rough players: the canvas skin can wear through to the foam in a couple of months, so it should be put away rather than left as a chew toy.
