Jolly PetsTug-n-Toss Heavy Duty Dog Toy Ball with Handle, 8 Inches/Large, Purple

We just got this ball a few hours ago and I just opened it five minutes ago. My dog carries the ball with the handle and it’s already cracked. I’ve only thrown it like five times to her. I’ve had several jolly balls over the years for my previous border collie that have never done this. Quality is terrible now.

Even when the ball goes flat, it is safe for dog to chew since the material does not come apart. Dog LOVES to play fetch with these. Eventually the handle separates from the ball and I have to buy a new ball - maybe every three to four months? Worth it though for the pleasure it gives the dog. And she generally destroys any toy in 10 minutes.

My dog is an absolute powerhouse when it comes to toys. She destroys everything within minutes, which has made finding a durable toy quite the challenge. Enter the Jolly Ball - a game-changer in every sense! From the moment I introduced it to her, she's been obsessed.First off, the design is brilliant. The size is just right for her to grab, carry, and fling around with ease. Watching her toss it in the air and chase after it is pure joy. The best part? It's built to last. Despite her best efforts to tear it apart, this ball has stood strong. We've had it for weeks now, and it still looks brand new.I can't emphasize enough how impressed I am with its durability. It's made of tough, resilient material that can handle even the most vigorous play sessions. Plus, the vibrant color makes it easy to spot in the yard or at the park.If you have a dog who loves to play rough and needs a toy that can keep up, look no further than the Jolly Ball. It's a fantastic investment in your pup's happiness and your peace of mind knowing that it won't be shredded to bits after a day. Highly recommend!

All in all it is a great product. My girl is a heavy chewer and within a couple of days had the handle chewed almost completely off. I cut the remaining parts off. She still plays with it and the main part seems to be holding up really well. She loves it. I would have given 5 stars, if the handle had not been so easy for her to chew off.

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.

This ball will keep you pet goats entertained for hours. Good quality. Good entertainment for sure!!!

This is a fun toy, and I had high hopes for it for my dog. He's not a particularly voracious chewer, but he does enjoy biting down on things. To my disappointment, he chewed through the handle of this ball in less than 10 minutes. We still have it out in the yard but he doesn't play with it much anymore. Just beware that it may not be suitable for strong chewers. (For context, he has both the Chuckit football and large fetch ball and has not destroyed either of those after several weeks of play.) Rating three stars because I know every dog is different and this might have just not been a great match for mine.

Far from indestructible, but really tough. To be fair, my two dogs played DAILY tug of war games with this Jolly Ball. I bought the one in the picture on March 12 and the replacement came in today, July 22, so it lasted about 4 months before they started actually pulling it apart. And in 4 months I see myself buying it again.

My dog LOVVVVVES this ball. By far the most robust I've found

I love this ball as does my German shepherd. I won’t say it doesn’t have a few extra holes in it but it still is in good shape. I think that the design helps the integrity of the ball. When this one gets totally destroyed (which anyone with a shepherd knows it will) I will be buying another one

Love the handle! My dog can grab it and run around without dropping it and I have something to grasp when I throw it. Very sturdy toy, and medium to large dogs won’t have any trouble lifting it. Highly recommended!

My dog destroys any toy within 5 minutes. This toys is very durable. Her teeth do penetrate the ball but it doesn’t affect the ball in anyway. I am impressed with this product.

Hello, my name is Chert. I am a full grown, 140 pound German Shepherd. When I first came to my family, they knew I'd be a big boy, however, I don't think they quite imagined me to be as big as I am. When I was 7 months old I could hold a full soccer ball in my mouth. My bite and teeth would puncture them so they'd deflate. I was usually left with a flap of rubber with tatters of covering. I loved that too but it's not the same as a ball. If I was tossed a tennis ball it would be crushed before I got it back to be thrown again. My neighbor who worked at a pet store gave me a horse Jolly Ball for Christmas. Wow! It was huge! but I managed to flatten it a bit with my paws and pick it up to bring it back. My mom and dad found the handled Jolly Ball and got me one of those. I finally wore that one out after two years and now it was time for a new one. I still have my old one and it is still in fairly good shape but it is deformed, frozen by the winter. I can't take it to the dog park because all the other dogs are so curious about it that they want it. When we go away I run and get my Jolly Ball and tell mom and dad I'm packed. Both balls come in the house when I come in so no one can steal them and the winter can't deform my new one. I'm back to chasing my new one and there is nothing like it. I'm a happy puppy!
