Pro Ball Go-Frrr Slingshot-Action Dog Fetch Toy, Large

My wife and I raise and train Golden Retrievers and work with them everyday.A good retriever will retrieve anything from a stick to a tennis ball; but the great thing about this product is that the launch distance is much better than you can achieve using just an arm throw. Much to our dogs delight, my wife can easily launch a Go Frrr ball forty yards.It is reasonably priced, but keep them away from the pups when not in use or it will quickly becomes their favorite chew toy. We do just that and still go through a new set just about every summer.JFS

My dog loves this fetch toy. The sling will shoot the ball a good 30 to 40 yards. The ball lasts a long time and even the rubber sling part unless the dog makes a chew toy of it. Just fetching it lasts not too bad. There are 3 sizes of ball, small, medium & large. My dog is a medium sized dog (22 pounds) and he can fetch the small the best but also not a problem with the medium sized ball. You can shoot the ball with your thumb (on the sling) but there is a little shooter you can purchase (comes in a 2 pkg set) that I'd reccommended. Five stars if the rubber sling was a bit stronger.

Broke the bungy cord after about 20 throws. I should get a refund for this.

A bit disappointed as we have bought quite a lot of these over the past few years and the ones we recently bought broke within a few uses! They're pretty durable and Can usually last quite a while but out of the four I bought two broke in the first week of use. I think maybe mine were made on a Friday!!!

Loved everything about this toy until it broke a month in. The whole ball is rubber, which means my ball popper can not pop it. Much more convenient then a chuckit as others have said. I also love the fact that it has a cord on it in the off chance my dog swallows it. A much safer alternative for the persons shoulders and for the dog. Would give it a 4 if it had lasted longer than a month and a 5 if it had come with the launcher with the price it's at. Good toy will more than likely buy again.

I lock the rubber band onto one of his swinging toys and I don't need to wonder where he is for the rest of the day. It keeps his interest until he needs to get a drink, and when he has finished his drink, he'll bark once and run over to the ball and play tug-of-war with it again. I have to unlock it and bring it in the house before he'll come in to rest. The last ball lasted a whole year. If this one does the same, it's well worth it.

Toss it in your pocket and never carry a Chuck-it again! I find this better for avoiding shoulder pain, and I get as much range, too. My labradoodle likes it for the rubber band, which she picks up delicately instead of sticking the ball in her mouth. The ball is smooth surfaced so doesn't hold dirt or sand or smells. I've only met one dog who immediately chewed off the band, bit it into pieces, and ate it! Unless you have that dog (I'm looking at you, Paco!) this is a great fetch toy.

This ball is wonderful when you get your technique down. A definite arm saver and it goes extremely far! Downside, dogs can chew through it in a heartbeat.
