Chuckit Traditional 26M Canine Ball Launcher, 26″ Size, Consists of Medium Ball (2.5″) For Canine 20-60 Kilos, Made in USA

Best toy, the end
Combined with the Max Glow ball, this is the best dog toy available on modern planet Earth.I have a burly 92lb. pit bull mix with highly developed prey drive, and she will chase the glow ball for hours if I let her.The tiny sport launcher (Sport 12M) is the best, because you can still throw the ball really far, but you can also slam the ball down a few feet away from yourself so it bounces up in the air and your dog has to jump to catch it, or you can throw it up really high so it bounces 15′ away or so and your dog can jump to catch it. We sometimes have to play fetch in a pretty small area, so it’s nice to have the small launcher for these games. The larger launchers aren’t as fun in small areas. You can play the same games but it’s trickier to throw the ball correctly.Also, the small launcher is a lot easier to carry. The small launcher fits in my dog-walk-stuff backpack (with the ball in the launcher so I don’t have to dig for it later), but the big ones don’t easily. The launcher also has a hole in the end so you can hang it from your bag or whatever with a carabiner. The big ones are too long for that in most cases, and swing back and forth.Also-also my dog loves to ask for the launcher, then when I give it to her she plays keep-away and it’s adorable. The big launcher I have is harder for her to balance in her mouth, so she just lays down and chews on it until it gets taken away. She’s chewed on all of the four Chuck Its we’ve owned, but she’s only broken one (a big one), but that’s because she got ahold of it when no one was home. The little one in my bag is totally chewed up but still works great. I think they’re sturdier than the big ones. Except for the launcher she chewed into pieces, which was our fault, the only reason we’ve had to replace anything was because we lost it. Usually we keep the launcher and ball in the backpack so she can’t get to them and so they don’t get lost, so we rarely have to replace them. There is just not a better value in toys, and the startup price is really low.Once again I really recommend the glow ball! It doesn’t get soggy no matter how wet the grass or the dog mouth is. It is fun to chase because it is slippery and it collapses when it’s squeezed, so it pops out of the dog’s mouth and flies away if they bite it at the wrong angle; it’s really bouncy, and stays bouncy because it can’t be popped; it whistles so you can usually hear it even if you can’t see it; and it really glows enough for nighttime catch, even if you only have your cellphone flashlight to charge it up!UPDATE:I should have said, we have the 12M launcher, which means the handle is 12 inches long and it uses a medium-sized ball. The medium ball is 2.5 inches in diameter, so the launcher will fit regular tennis balls, too! But my dog won’t play with regular tennis balls anymore because they aren’t anywhere near as fun as the glow balls, and I think she doesn’t like having gross sloshy muddy tennis balls in her mouth.I lost my short launcher awhile back and could only get a long one locally to replace it, which reminded me that you have to lean over a lot further to use the short launcher. So if you have trouble leaning over to the point that your hand is a foot above the ground, this may be hard for you to use.I wish Amazon would let us choose colors, because my old one was green, and the big one is orange, both of which are bright enough to see in the grass from far away, even at night.Still, best toy!

THIS IS THE ONLY TOY MY DOG WILL PLAY FETCH WITH!!
I’ve been on a year long journey to teach my puppy to fetch. He’s a high energy breed and just runs away from me with every toy. It’s been difficulty to get him to understand fetch and I’ve spent a fortune on toys we can play fetch with. But with this Chuckit toy, it was so easy.I show him the chuckit with the ball in it and prepare him by asking if he’s ready in an excited voice. Then I launch the ball. When he returns with it, I wave the stick in the air and ask if he’s ready. Luckily, this has signaled to him to drop the ball if he wants me to through it again and I can scoop it up and repeat. From what I understand having the stick allows me to grab the ball back without me lunging for the ball, which helps my dog understand the game thoroughly. Overall, great product and problem solver for my high energy pup!

My dog loves it but cracked chuck-it ball
My dog really enjoys that I can throw the ball much further than without the wand. However the ball that is came with has already cracked after one play session. The wand works with regular tennis balls though so we are still having fun. Just wish the ball was more durable!

Amazing!
Got this for our puppy who has recently learned to fetch and she’s OBSESSED! It’s a MUST have for any fetch loving dogs. My only complaint is the ball got destroyed quickly, but it fits standard size tennis balls so that was not a real issue and I didn’t buy it for the ball. This thing is a shoulder saver for sure!!!

Nada nesse mundo deixa meu cachorro (border colie) mais feliz do que correr atrás dessa bolinha. A qualidade é maravilhosa, o lançador é muito prático – não só ajuda a lançar mais longe e cansar menos como também evita que sua mão fique completamente gosmenta de pegar bolinha babada. Funciona bem com praticamente todas as bolinhas m da Chuckit! e é fácil de levar pq é o modelo mais compacto.Um dinheiro bem gasto.

It’s worth it to spend a few extra dollars on the Pro version of the chuckit lign up of ball throwers.Awesome grip, rain ☔ or shine 🌞Nice a sturdy, great quality and will last much longer than the cheaper models, especially in the cold.If your dog is addicted to playing fetch like my Marlie, get the Pro version, you won’t regret it.Marlie and I use to go through at least two chuckit ball throwers per year, now this one will last much longer.You’ll love it, plus get greater distance and your furry family member Will love you more for itEnjoy it!!
