Built for supervised outdoor play
A bigger, more engaging way for energetic dogs to push, chase and play outdoors.
Made for supervised push-and-chase play. This is not a chew toy.
When fully inflated, it is very difficult for a dog to damage it. A properly inflated ball pulls the cover smooth and taut, leaving far fewer loose folds for teeth to catch. Never give it to your dog underinflated: a soft or wrinkled cover is easier to grab and may be damaged.
This style of ball was originally developed for demanding horse and livestock environments. Even so, no play product is indestructible—use it for supervised push-and-chase play, redirect chewing, and inspect it before every session.
When in doubt, choose the larger size. The most common sizing mistake is going too small. A larger ball is harder to lift or carry in the mouth, so it naturally encourages pushing, steering and chasing.
Weight is a guide. Your dog’s height, play style and available space matter too.
Inflate the ball fully before the first session, then check it regularly during supervised outdoor play.
Your order is covered by our 14-day money-back guarantee. If it is not the right fit for you and your dog, contact us within 14 days of receiving your order for a full refund—no lengthy explanation required.
High-energy dogs play differently. This oversized ball is designed for supervised push-and-chase sessions instead of carrying and chewing.

Pro sizing tip: The 21.7 in / 55 cm ball offers the largest surface for push-and-chase play. Choose based on your dog’s height, play style and available space.
Every idea behind this ball started with watching Toby, our 55 lb Border Collie, play. We wanted a larger moving target that kept supervised outdoor sessions focused on pushing, steering and chasing.
Testing the 21.7 in / 55 cm ball with Toby helped us shape the size and play experience around real movement in the yard.
