Jolly Pets Tug-n-Toss Heavy Duty Dog Toy Ball with Handle, 8 Inches/Large, Blueberry

My dog is an aggressive chewer and this ball lasted 5 minutes. It doesn’t deflate after being punctured, but is able to still be used if your dog likes to just chase it. My dog is a pit/lab mix and we now only use it for retrieval.

This jolly ball has been a staple in my home dog boarding/ daycare business. I have one in each of my 3 play yards. They have held up for many years lying outside year round without the colors fading or material becoming brittle or cracking. They have stayed soft, maintained their shape & color, and been a favorite toy for both small & large dogs. I have a small 12 lb dog that likes to fetch this ball & play tug (which is hilarious because it is about as big as the dog). However it is used mostly by my medium / large dogs that absolutely LOVE it! It is definitely a favorite in the herding breed line, like border collies. While it is extremely durable and super tough and holds up to many teeth puncture marks, it is not indestructible. I have had to replace one of these over the last 3 years that 2 large dogs were able to tear in half after playing tug of war with it for too long. I would recommend not leaving it unattended as a play toy with large dogs unless you are there to monitor. This would make an excellent gift for almost any medium - extra large dog who likes to fetch or retrieve! These have been worth every penny spent for me!

I bought one of these a few months back and my dog loved it. It lasted for quite a while. I bought him a new one and noticed it seemed to be out of different material or different build quality. I didnt think much of it until he ripped apart the new one within a week. So i ordered the same original one i did of the light blue. Thinking it must just be a difference on the colors.I was wrong, this new one i just got is the same build quality as the one that lasted a week.Please go back to the build quality you originally had. A dog toy needs to be sturdy and tough and to last for 6 months to a year at least in my mind.If you are not able to maintain the same buold quality as the original then i would suggest a new design. You need to replace the pre-formed handle with an integrated rope pull that is is secured within the ball with the rope knotted and perhaps some sort of metal stopper inside the ball.The weak failure point on this ball is the handle where it connects to the ball. You need to change the material on how the handle connects in order for it to be more durable.I cannot recommend this ball any longer, no will i buy another until the build quality improves and the design is revisited to solve the problems i mentioned.

My dog absolutely loves to play fetch with these balls but chews the handles off pretty quickly, which then makes it hard for her to pick it up.

This large dog ball has been a huge hit with our pup! It's the perfect size for bigger dogs to chase, push around, and play with. The durable material holds up well to rough play, and it's lightweight enough for our dog to carry and roll around the yard.It's been a great way to keep our dog active and entertained - she goes absolutely wild for it! We've even used it for games of chase and fetch, and it's held up great. If you have a big pup who loves to play, this ball is totally worth it. Fun, durable, and great way to burn off energy!

This was my dogs favorite toy. He has had the red ball in the photo since he was 8 weeks old. He is now 13 months. He finally got a tear in the handle so I wanted to replace it so the ball can hang in the tree again but aside from the handle, the rest of the ball is in great shape still and still gets daily use.I had purchased another jolly ball in green to mix it up, It only lasted him about 3 days because of how thin and flimsy it was. My dog shredded that into pieces. I still find remnants left over from that battle. I wrote that off as my mistake since maybe with it being intended for a horse and apple scented then it could be built different. No big deal, MY FAULT.So I go back to my original purchase and place another order for the original red jolly ball. What I get is this flimsy ball that is the same as the green ball I mentioned, maybe worse. The first ball had bite resistance, it took a considerable amount of force to compress the ball even by stepping on it. These new balls that are being sent out you can compress them with only 1 finger. Its a joke honestly for the intended purpose. I would love to know where to buy a real jolly ball from again.As it stands, the replacement ball is being returned and I would deem these a waste of money until they figure out what is going on. Keep the original product but raise the price if you need to but don't produce a product that serves no actual purpose and is rubber going right to a landfill. So... yeah I don't know. I'm going to have to get him a real tire or something now since these jolly balls won't make the cut.

Oh my dog loves having an English mastiff and I have three of them and they all go for it. They love it but the handle part of it be caution because my dog is like to chew it so I have to take it away. Freddie teach them not to chew it just to play with it.Size is perfect. I love it. I have large dogs extra large dogs. No they don’t smell bounce, but they bounce wiggly because the handle makes them grow uneven. That’s a good toy for my dog..

The media could not be loaded. My dog absolutely Loves this ball🤣🤣 he becomes an absolute crack head when he sees it. However he has also already torn up the handle within the first 10 minutes. So not super durable. But its mostly nice
