Rope Dumbbell Dog Toy with Two Tennis Balls, 10 Inches Long

This dumbbell-style toy pairs a braided cotton rope with a tennis ball tied on at each end, giving a dog two things to love: something to pull and something to bounce. The rope is knotted through each ball, so you can grab the middle to play tug or toss it for a game of fetch.

The whole toy is about 26 cm (10.2 in) long, and each ball is about 6.5 cm (2.6 in) across, which is regulation tennis ball size and easy for many dogs to carry. The rope is braided cotton string in tan and green tones, and the balls have a paw print on them. One toy comes in each order.

It is a good match for dogs that like to carry, shake and tug rather than gnaw for long periods. Cotton rope will fray with heavy chewing, and tennis ball felt is abrasive on teeth with a lot of chewing, so use it as a play toy during supervised sessions and put it away afterward. Retire it if loose strands appear or a ball starts to come away. Wipe with a damp cloth and let it dry fully, since wet rope can sour.
