My dogs weren't crazy about this toy at first. Didn't bounce or anything ;-)
But this last fall and winter Rosco came to love it for tug both with me:
or with Thule:
It's fairly durable, has a soft texture and supposedly a great "mouthfeel." The holes offer lots of spots to grab onto--AND if you get the largest size you can stuff a tennis ball inside and make your dood go NUTS trying to get it out. Rosco managed to complete the puzzle a number of times, but not without a lot of work =)
Forgot to mention that this ball is currently under deconstruction...after endless tug and chewing it is missing about 1/3rd of it (in part it is because I cut off chunks that were falling off in part cuz Rosco chewed chunks off...luckily, they don't swallow much).
Boo loves his! We have the small and the big one, and we stick a vinyl squeaky ball inside of it (that's just slightly smaller than the Holee Roller.) Normally Boo would destroy the squeaky ball in two seconds, but he can't when its inside the Holee, so its great! He especially loves it when we tie a thick cotton rope to it and fling it around!
Finny won't play with this. He runs from it if we roll it to him! We took it to the dog park for soccer. Big mistake. Have you ever tried cleaning poo off it?
