All about this product

Product description

Herding breeds love to push, nudge and chase, and this ball is built for that kind of play. It is an inflatable ball with a reinforced PVC outer shell, thickened and double layered, so it stands up better to rough rolling than a thin ball would. It is sold in two sizes, 17.7 inches (45 cm) and 21.7 inches (55 cm), both in blue, and it suits dogs like Australian Shepherds and Collies.

Inside, the bladder has a slow-leak design, so if the honeycomb structure is punctured the air escapes gradually instead of with a sudden pop. Five repair patches come in the package, which helps extend the life of the ball if it is pricked.

This is a push-and-chase toy rather than a chew toy, and the shell is not meant to be bitten. Always supervise play, and put the ball away when the session ends. Pick the larger 21.7 inch size for a bigger dog and the smaller 17.7 inch one for a medium-sized herder. Inflate it to a firm feel, and wipe off dirt with a damp cloth.

Why we chose it

A reinforced double-layer shell, a slow-leak bladder and five repair patches make it a practical ball for energetic herding dogs.
