We’ve had these rubbery “Zogoflex” balls at home for more than a year now. Our gang of Goldens – which includes some notable toy destroyers – haven’t put a dent in these balls even with daily throwing and retrieving (and wrestling over who got the ball first).
The manufacturer will replace any ball your dog damages, but so far we haven’t heard of any customer making a claim. The grooved design makes the balls easy to hold and also makes for occasionally unpredictable bounces, which keeps it interesting for your dogs. The large size here is 3.25″ in diameter and feels quite heavy – it’s a mouthful for a Golden Retriever. They’re kind of dog-magnets, too…they’re the ball our Goldens reach for first when it’s time for them to exercise us.
There’s a smaller size as well, and also two sizes of tug and chew bones made of the same virtually indestructible material.
I’m a little late reading this blog, especially some of the posts, but gone to say… everything here is so great and so true. As someone who’s originally from the area, I get a chuckle out of many things here.
