Best toy I’ve ever gotten for my dog
The toy allows you to interact with your dog in a way that I didn’t realize was so important until I adopted a dog who was ball obsessed and a bit disconnected. We have bonded so much over this toy and it has held up so much better than 95% of the toys I’ve gotten, which have all been labeled as high-quality or durable. It is perfect for playing fetch and for tugging, as well as training. The only thing worth noting is that the rope is thin enough that it can be uncomfortable to tug with a large or strong dog. I usually wrap a leash around my hip and hook it to the rope when we are doing intense tugging (because my 75 pound dog would win otherwise). If you do go for a tug toy that has a more comfortable handle, it will not bounce and be easy for a dog to run around with in the same way. This rope makes the weight heavily in favor of the ball, so it acts more like a ball and the dog is more inclined to grab the ball. I think this toy finds right balance of ball to rope.

So good, I repurchased
This is one of my dog's fave fetch toys, and after losing it in a grassy field, I repurchased. The ball is heavy and durable, and the rope is sturdy and just the right length for flinging. When this comes out, my dog knows we're playing fetch! There's no strange smell out of the package, and while my 70lb Samoyed isn't a hard chewer, he hasn't put a dent or nick in the ball itself. It's not so hard that I'd be worried about him gnawing on it, either.

Great ball much improvement on thr rope
I have to say that I absolutely live this ball. The ball itself is a great sturdy and very tough ball. The rope however needs improved. It should be a much more durable, heavy duty rope. I have 4 large dogs. I do not let them chew this toy we play fetch with it but like any dog they tug (hard) and pull and do chew at it. I do not think that can be avoided, and thr rope doesn't hold up.

Excellent for heavy chewers
Excellent toy for heavy chewers like malinois! The rope makes it easy to throw farther. Good amount of bounce as well. Definitely need to supervise as it could be a choking hazard for larger breeds.

Rope breaks toy breaks, buy it anyway?
3 stars. 4 stars during the 5 months it worked. 2 Star now. The rope bites through easily & often. I could hobble the rope together the first 5 months (see how it's shorter) now toy is a dud. Durability 1 Star. Took my 6 month old puppy a few minutes to do this. You see, she chewed threw it a few times and I was able to re-tie it until I ran out of rope. She DID love to do the puzzle- carrying it around, banging it on the ground repeatedly, tugging the rope gently up and down, holding the rope while shaking the ball like a pendulum side to side, rolling it with her paws like a cat, holding the rope with her teeth and banging the ball into various objects around the room trying to dislodge Stella and Chewy Meal Mixers... She's very clever and not at all a brut. I would give this to her for ten or fifteen minutes before bed. She still likes it and it still sort of works? She can no longer pull up and down on on the rope or carry it or around or bang it against various objects. So, you basically have a ball now with treats that can super easily fall out. You can just give your dog a regular ball with no hole and throw a handful of treats on the ground. I DO recommend buying this though. My dog loves it.
