Disappointing! Didn't last one day

Great design but, my dog punctured it with her teeth the first time! Then the stitching started to come undone the same day! And that was the end of it. Tugging on it made the fabric unravel and exposed the inside, which my dog wanted to chew. Wish it was made of Kong rubber.

Thank you for your review of the Kick Fetch. This material while durable is not puncture proof. We understand every dog plays differently and no dog toy is indestructible but will forward your comments to the product manager. If you have any questions please email consumerservices1@petmate.com
We love this kick ball! Our dog chews through any toy within minutes, and easily busts through most fetch balls. This on has lasted the longest. The size makes him work a little harder tobring it back to us, tiring him out a little faster... and we don't have to touch it when it is covered in his slobber. It also gives us a chance to play soccer with him. He makes a great goalie!
I think the Kick Fetch Ball is a wonderful product. Yeah, It could be built a little tougher for my strong chewer, but he loves it SO much it's hard to think of not replacing it for him. This is my 1 year old dog Beaux with his 3rd Kick Fetch ball. The first and second are now shredded and tossed in the garbage, but I cannot express enough how much he loves it. He would love to take it inside, but we have desinated it as an outdoor toy. He's not one to just chew on it, but it's after the fetch and he's bringing it back that he get's intense with it. Petmate is a wonderful company who loves our pets as much as we do. Thank you for the great products.
I bought this toy a half hour ago. It took me longer to write this review then it was for my two year old dog to chew it up. This would make a great toy for a 15 year old dog with no teeth.

Thanks for your review of the Kick Fetch. This ball is made with a durable material that is built to last during fetch and not as a chew toy. We understand that all dogs play differently and no dog toy is indestructible and will forward your comments to the product engineering team. Please contact consumerservices1@petmate.com for any other issues.
Hello, I bought the Chuckit Kick Fetch last fall. My dog loves it... But the seams are coming apart.. Is there a warranty for this? It is not a tear, but stiching is coming out and exposing the inside.

I bought the glow in the dark kick fetch ball for my 7 month old puppy. I bought it to use as play time for training. I like the features but she already has it punctured. I thought this would be a tougher ball.
This is the third Chuckit Kick Fetch we have owned and Sandy The Boss Dog recommends it. The first one we owned we left in the sun and the blue part became gummy, but The Boss Dog loved it. Easy to grab, easy to carry and big enough to be a status symbol. Nobody touches Boss Dog's ball. So we got a second one which was used mostly for fetch in the pool, keep a way and tug a war. Me and Boss Dog did some damage with tug a war. but we never destroyed it. The attached picture does not tell the whole story. Often the ball is holding up the full 85 lbs of the dog as she jerks it to try and make me let go. She is very competitive. I purchased a third one when I saw one on sale. So I have two usable balls. Overall they are lasting about 2+ years of very active and aggressive play. Let's be honest if you have a dog that likes to tear up toys, the Kick Fetch is not for you. If you need a toy for a big dog this one is versatile and not indestructible, but reasonably durable. Most importantly, Sandy loves it and it is easy on her teeth. When she is in a full on tug a war competition getting a good grip gives her the advantage .
Sophie loves all of her Chuckit toys (esp the Flying Squirrel), but I had to take her Kick Fetch away when the blue part began breaking down. It's hard to describe precisely, but it seems to have gotten soft and gooey, almost like semi-cured gum under a bench. No idea what the blue stuff is made of, but I can tell you it is sticky and won't wash off your fingers with just soap. Thank goodness her only interest is in fetching - if she was a chewer she'd have a digestive tract full of that stuff. Teeth punctures in canvas are excusable. This is simply unacceptable for a product designed and intended for mouths.
BTW, this ball has been well-maintained - I always hose if off after play and store it a watertight deck box. It has never been left out in the weather or exposed to any chemicals or cleaners.
