Tough Bounce

Been looking for solid rubber balls that I had for my previous lab but they are harder to find than hen's teeth, luckily I came across these while searching on AmazonComments were good and liked the description so decided to take a punt and bought the 4 pack and turns out they are good, not solid rubber but exceptionally strong with a decent feel and good bounceWill definitely buy more when my new lab eventually loses them.UPDATE: Almost 4 months of daily use and still as good as new, my chewing 7 month old Labrador hasn’t managed to scratch them, can recommend these balls 100%

My dog loves these balls, they’ve got a really good bounce and they’re a great size for him (Collie/Beagle mix but he’s ~33kgs).Balls are a good quality and haven’t broken or been chewed through. We’ve taken them to the beach and ponds because they float and are easy to spot it the water. Dogs loves playing fetch with these, he has lots of fun.

Great rubber balls for dogs, more bounce and don’t sink if they are swimming, my favourites

Excellent ten stars

Another German Shepherd owner here chiming in. Can confirm these aren’t getting torn through any time soon, wouldn’t be surprised if they last several years. High quality rubber, super bouncy etcSize-wise, tiny bit smaller than a standard tennis ball, fine for most large dogs I’d say. Mine is 43kg and okay.There are only 2 slight drawbacks, or perhaps even one if you consider the first one as obvious anyway. These aren’t the cheapest balls, so even though they last, it’s worth considering:1. They’re quite hard / heavy, so have to be careful where and how these are being thrown. Could easily break something like a window, or worse hurt your pet. Quite easy to get around by taking precautions and using instinct.2. This one is an inconvenience but perhaps can’t be avoided with this material - they attract lots of dirt. It just sticks to the balls. This includes hair, grass/‘mud and general dust, and is much more pronounced when they’re wet. This doesn’t happen nearly as much with eg tennis balls. Or ruffwear’s durable bouncy padded balls. Simple solution for me is to keep them outside, though my dog struggles sometimes to understand the rules.These drawbacks are definitely worth it for me, but may not be for everybody

Brilliant bouncy balls for the thrower. Dogs love them and much tougher than tennis balls they still haven't destroyed these months after I got them.

I bought the 4-pack specifically because they are marketed as "Highly Durable Tough Bounce Balls" and cost considerably more than many standard dog balls.I own a Belgian Malinois called River. She's a working-line dog and, while she has a strong bite, she wasn't given this ball to sit and chew. I placed the ball in a field during training, sent her to retrieve it, and this was the very first time she had the ball in her mouth.She returned and dropped it at my feet split almost in half.To be clear, this wasn't weeks of wear and tear. It wasn't prolonged chewing. It wasn't left in the garden. It failed on its first retrieve.I fully understand that no dog toy is indestructible, especially with powerful breeds. If it had lasted a few weeks, I'd have considered that perfectly reasonable. But a product marketed as "Tough Bounce" should survive more than a single retrieve.The photos speak for themselves.At around £3.50 per ball, I expected far better durability than this. Unfortunately, I can't recommend them for powerful dogs.Pros:Good sizeNice bounceEasy to spot in grassCons:Failed on first useNot durable enough for strong dogsPoor value given the lifespanRating: 1/5 - My Malinois performed the durability test. The ball failed.

Previously ordered through here and received 4 balls all of which were great, solid and pretty indestructible as my pointer loves to chew. I reordered as a couple of the balls have been lost now and was disappointed when I only received 3 balls, within the first week 2 of them had broken. They’d come apart straight down the middle. The third ball has been completely fine so unsure as to why the other two have had defects.As far as the balls go they are similar size to a tennis ball maybe slightly bigger. They are bouncy so if the ground is firm they can travel quite far! Previous order was fine maybe it was just bad luck with the latest order.

The dog (Irish setter) loves these balls. NB they have high bounce.

I have two working Dobermans who are aggressive chewers and these are the only balls that withstand their crazy bite! I’ve gone through so many competitor balls that rhyme with “stuck-it” but these balls are still just as bouncy and durable.
