Chuckit Indoor Fetch Ball Dog Toy for Dogs - Interactive Dog Toys for Boredom 4 75 Inch Orange

Our rescue border collie has turned into a circus seal. She loves this. It took a few days for her to really take to it, but now she’s created her own nightly routine. We toss the ball gently and she “boops” it back at us with just her nose. The trajectory goes off course sometimes, but it’s perfectly safe because it’s so light and soft/fluffy. She’s not a big toy ripper, but our Mastiff was clearly a seamstress in his previous life. We’ve had to stop him a few times trying to pull off individual puffs and finding the seams to rip. I love that there’s no squeaker in this! It gives her lots of exercise when she has to go chasing it around the living room. Because of the football shape, it doesn’t bounce or roll around in a way she can anticipate. It feels like the inside is a “nerf” football. Soft, light, and gives easily when squeezed so it’s gentle on her teeth as well. Perfect size for a 40lb dog. Because of the football shape, it’s probably fine for larger dogs, especially gentle giants. This has definitely become her favorite indoor toy. We’ve had great experiences with the Chuck it brand.

This dog toy has been a huge hit! My dog absolutely loves it and plays with it every day. It’s sturdy, well-made, and holds up even with lots of chewing. Bonus points for keeping him busy and happy! My dog goes back to it over and over, which tells me it’s a winner. Great choice for any energetic or toy-loving pup! My golden retriever plays with it everyday! Read more

My dog loves!! Not the most durable for a golden retriever puppy but she love this. It is a great indoor fetch toy. They are safe around furniture and breakables. Best of all, it doesn’t squeak. We have one outside too. We are on the third. She can easily chew them to pieces. I sew them backtogether as much as possible but there comes a point that they go into the trash. Regardless, we still buy them and she still loves them. I’d say I’d durability and functionality depend on the dog. Read more

I gave this as a gift to my friend who has a smaller dog and is a bit less destructive when it comes to plush/soft toys. His dog absolutely loves it and has a lot of fun chasing after it and chewing (nicely) on it. He is a smaller dog so the ball is a bit too large for him to get his whole mouth around it. However, he loved picking it up by the tag and dragging it along everywhere. I thought my dog would enjoy it too since he is on the smaller size, but I could tell he was going to chew right through it or rip it up (pieces did come off in our short time). However, I know my dog is going to find a way to destroy certain toys no matter what and this Chuck it held up pretty nicely while he had the time to play with it. The good thing and probably most important thing is that both dogs absolutely love it and it was a great size and has pretty good durability. Read more

Update: I just bought another of these for my puppy who is now 10 months old. Will continue to purchase as needed in the future as it is one of his most favorite toys to play with. He's very destructive with his toys and I am happy that I can get at least a full 2 months of heavy play before he has a hole chewed in it. My 8 month old Pembroke Welsh Corgi loves this ball. He plays with it with us (fetch) and by himself throwing it in the air and chasing after it, probably at least 2 or 3 hours a day. I originally purchased the first one from a local pet store and this is the second which I purchased via Amazon. Since he doesn't sit and chew or shred it, it seems to be holding up well with the amount of time he plays with it. It's lightweight and has mop-like texture that is easier for a puppy to grab onto. If you have a puppy or dog that likes to chew and shred things, this ball will tear up very quickly. But if you have a puppy/dog who enjoys playing fetch and throwing things around with minimal chewing this ball will last a couple of months or so. To me worth the price. Read more

The media could not be loaded. My dog really loves this toy. He’s a 5yr old border collie. He doesn’t work at tearing up his toys but he does shake his toys. I bought his 1st Chuckit it indoor football over 3yrs ago. It held up very well and had normal wear and tear I’d expect from a chuckit toy to have. It developed a small tear in fabric about 6months ago. As it was still mainly intact, I let him continue to play with it. Then the tear widened and I felt good time to replace, so I ordered one from Amazon. He was ecstatic to have a new one. I was quite disappointed though as in under a week from giving it to him(he’s always supervised during play so I do know what he does with his toys and he doesn’t work at them to tear them up) I noticed a tear down the seam that was bigger than the other one had for 6months. Over the next few days, tear widened. Now cover is completely off of inside. I’m really disappointed in the quality. I’m not sure if the quality of the toy is less than when I got his first one(which I bought in a pet store such as petsmart) or if for some reason because I purchased on amazon, they are of lesser quality. I do know for a fact as I supervise his play and with his favorite toys(and usually his spendier toys) they get put up when it’s not play time. He has his other toys that he can play with anytime. I have ran also into Kong toys (Wubba) that has come apart quickly in under a month,but those were both bought on amazon and at a retail store, so I don’t know if amazon is distributing toys of lesssr quality or if toy brands that have held up in past (Kong Wubba & this Chuckit football) are just being made of lesser quality. My dog’s style of play hasn’t changed nor has his supervision. That being said, my dog absolutely LOVES this toy. I want other users to be forewarned that I’ve had 2 of this product for my dog, they both developed a tear down seam, that eventually led to outer fabric shell coming off of the inner part of the toy. Yes my dog does shake his toys but 1st lasted over 3yrs, 2nd lasted less than a month and is in worse condition than the first. I may purchase this toy again as it’s one of his favorites just to see if the 2nd one was a fluke. Had I paid more than $6.19(I’m a prime member and it was an add on product) I most likely wouldn’t purchase a third one. I’m willing to see if the third one will last at least a yr. if it starts coming apart in less than a week again, I’ll have my answer which would be that chuckit has resorted to making their toys of lessor quality. I hope that’s not the case because they are one of only a couple of brands I hold in high regard for their good quality and durable dog toys. Please see picture. It’s his toy in less than a month. The outer material came off during play last night. It lasted less than a month from time I gave it to him to play with. 5/22/18 update. I bought him a 3rd indoor fumblr, it last almost 3 months...I ordered him a 4th one. I gave it to him Friday, today is Tuesday, his 4th one is already coming apart at the seams. When I ordered 4th fumblr, I bought 2 at the same time, they were $5.19 each(prime member add on price). I’m glad I did because now they are twice the price at now over $10. I very highly doubt I will buy another indoor fumblr unless price drops in half again. This last one that I gave him 4-5days ago, it hasn’t been his daily favorite toy. He’s maybe played with it a couple hrs each day. My dog really LOVES this toy. I’m moving my rating down to a 1 Star from 2 as this toy has consistently come apart rather quickly. I’m very disappointed in the quality of this toy. He’s 5 1/2yrs Old now. 1st fumblr last over 3yrs, he’s gone through the other 3 in under 6months...had I paid over $10 each time, I probably would’ve stopped after the 3rd fumblr came apart. as it is now, I won’t but any more fumblrs by chuckit at this price....if price drops, after he’s gone through the 5th one I have put up...I may consider it...but not at over $10 for a toy that comes apart through normal play in under 5 days...
