5.0 out of 5 stars Does not pop with the cover!!
Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2024
I am astonished at all the reviews that complain that the ball pops. That’s what the cover is for you ding bats!! Put the cover on and it’s great. Be sure to line the air nipple up with the closed end of the zipper otherwise you’ll have to deflate a bit and readjust. All said a great product even if the pump is really really cheap. I pumped up the ball in about 10 mins. I ended up giving the ball away because my Border Collie x Great Pyrenees sisters preferred watching the ball like livestock guardians rather than herding the ball like herders. They dont chase. My husband had to teach them to go after a small ball — they grab the ball and then put it in the pile with the rest of the flock.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not suitable for dogs
Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2024
I couldn’t check anything lower than zero stars! I purchased two of these in the last three weeks…the first one lasted 2 days before the zipper broke and my dog tore through the ball right at the fill port. The second one lasted 30 minutes! I followed every direction with regard to the proper fill “pressure”, which was just take a measurement of the circumference (not a good method). He tore through a seam and popped the second one.

The cover needs to be reinforced significantly and the zipper, also.

If you have a pet with canine teeth…DON’T BUY THIS PRODUCT!

3.0 out of 5 stars Didn't last a month
Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2024
So..we were hoping for the price of this ball that it would hold up. Nope. It does seem to be good quality, However, our 40 lb Aussie had so many holes all the way thru to the rubber insert that we can't patch em all. Definitely not worth the price to play with for a week or two!

Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2024
My dog went crazy for this! She's a small Rottweiler and super chewer. Toys don't last longer than a day; most balls get about a month maybe. So, this giant ball kept her entertained biting at it, rolling over it, "dominating" it (yes, she showed it whos daddy), flinging it around, etc. I have to say for her, it lasted a good long time. I think if I'd aired it up a bit more it could have lasted longer. Ok, the cover needs to be on prior to starting inflation! I'm the idiot that tried airing up then putting the cover on not noticing the zipper if super small. Make sure to line up the zipper w/ the air hole to air it back up from time to time. The fabric is sturdy IF the ball in mega inflated which again, I don't think I did b/c it scared me. However, my dog was able to finally rip a hole in it when she got ahold of a good crease. After that, the fabric tore and kept shredding at a slow pace. The pump is flimsy. Don't use it. Great if you need a leg workout but who does that?! Point is, better off using a mattress pump or something electric. Faster and easier. The ball material itself held up very well to dog claws. Once she was able to finally pop it, it tore apart w/ easy! Grab those small pieces ASAP! I didn't mind at all and will 100% order another b/c of the joy it brought her. If they came in other colors, I buy those as well.
totally 100% recommended for dogs medium to large size that love big balls.

2.0 out of 5 stars Less than a day later, already damaged
Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2024
The old cover was so much better, not to mention way more safe! Instead of a hidden zipper that was covered by the durable fabric, there is now a sad piece of elastic that frayed after less than a day of use. The metal zipper is now exposed and poses a risk for dogs to cut their mouths or break teeth.

Second attempt to get my girl a big ball. She loves them. This one has a super duty cover, thought that might protect the ball inside. NOPE!!! This is such a quality product but she took it down in less than an hour. And was so proud. Just a heads up, not for pitties ????

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome! Just Awesome! for herders and retrivers
Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2023
I have a "McNab Dog”. Basically a short coated BC but 10-15lbs heavier, longer legs, deeper chest, giant paws ….. higher energy and even more work oriented. We keep him happy in suburbia with a morning run, frisbees, aerobees and swimming. He is in good shape, but I have worried that he needs more mental challenge in his life.

Bought the small version of this ball for another dog I own, a smallish Aussie that won’t Frisbee. The Aussie (a rescue) does not retrieve and quickly lost interest in the ball. (Note) I think this would be a problem for this toy/tool with any dog that lacked a desire to retrieve.

The McNabe went nuts for this smaller version but could pick it up. I sent the small one back and got the 25”. He loves this toy/tool. We’ve had it out 3 times. He sprits out to it, gives it a good bump then starts working on bringing it back….bumping it with his shoulder and barking all the way.

The zipper has already lost its pull tab, but I figured it would and the zipper itself still opens/closes. No rips in the cover or punctures in the ball itself. I expect both will happen, in time, but if this thing lasts just 6 months I will happily buy another one. This ball has given the McNab a whole new activity and new challenge to work through……. boy am I happy with this purchase!!
