Not for my German Shepherd
on January 4, 2023

Gender:Female
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was really looking forward to having my dog play with this. She is a 4 year old German Shepherd that is full of energy. I was shocked at how loud it was. My dog was terrified of it and would not play with it. I tried treats and other ways to try and get her to play with it but she refused. I would not recommend due to the loud noise it makes.

Thank you so much for your feedback Laurie. We are sorry to hear your German Shepherd was scared of the launcher. While we do not have a quieter version of this launcher we do offer other toys that may be able to hold her attention without the louder noise of the ball launcher. If you would like to go over our other options please feel free to reach out to our customer care team at 1-800-732-2677 Mon. - Fri. 8am - 7pm ET

My dogs love it, wish you could use lacrosse balls

We bought this for our dogs for Christmas. They love it. But they are strong chewers so we are going through tennis balls pretty quickly.
My dogs are more used to playing with lacrosse balls, because they last longer for them. Wish the launcher could handle those.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Launcher
on February 4, 2023
Posted by: Doggma

This is a great ball launcher, just too loud when launching the ball. Doesn’t seem to scare our dog but I wouldn’t want to be holding a baby when it launches- they would probably start crying!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Super Fun!

As with anything new, you have to reward your dog and introduce the new toy with lots of praise and treats. It does make noise in order to launch the ball so any dog would be weary at first. You must do your part as their leader to show them it’s fun and nothing to fear.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My dog loves this but she chews up the tennis ball are there other options of a different ball I can use
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for sharing your dog's experience with us! Only standard tennis balls should be used with this launcher, as larger and/or heavier balls will damage the launcher over time. We do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
