Toy #3 of 3 from fetchdog.com: Throw Me a Rope Ball Dog Toy 3". Now, I'm not admitting that I know my measurements very well but even so, I usually order the 'medium' if not the largest offered sizes for toys. When I opened the package, I was disappointed to find that it was pretty small. As the picture shows, it is a ball with a rope going through it. I wasn't so concerned of the size of the ball but more so for the size of the rope. Louie has a talent for undoing rope knots to get the toy off of them, then he shreds the rope. It took him only a few hours to do that to this toy but I was going to cut the rope off anyways. I can rate the rope part of the toy as easy to destroy but the ball needs it own rating of amazing.

As in a previous post, I stated the need for a tennis ball like toy that could be thrown and fetched more than once. The bigger ball (big cosmos) is more of a fun, roll around, independent-play ball for Louie. But this ball is great for the park and is more fun for interacting since it's easily thrown and caught. It has what I call notches on it so it doesn't bounce very easily, but does makes it a challenge to chase after it. It went with us to the park last night and the other dog owners were very intrigued by it. Most of them didn't have an issue with tennis balls like we do (i.e. their dogs didn't obliterate them like Louie!) but liked that it was durable and the dogs seemed to like that it rolled around in unpredictable directions.

The picture shown above shows the toys that this manufacturer offers. The website states that they are "made of 100% rubber reclaimed from the manufacture of high-quality Vibram-soled boots, these dog toys are non-toxic and nearly indestructible." Which I think is really cool!

Prices range from $14.95 to $19.75 (depending on sizes). At the time of this post there was a SALE on the rope and bone toys for $15.00 each.
