Review on ๐ŸŽพ Mini Tennis Balls for iFetch - Small Size by Marco Cervantes

Revainrating 1 out of 5

CAUTION - NOT durable - poor quality and overpriced - rubber is DANGEROUS to dogs

These balls are not worth the $15 price tag. I bought 3 boxes of these to play with our ifetch and in 1.5 hours of play with my two dachshunds 7 balls FULLY FALLED. My pups love to chew balls happily in their mouths after catching them, which unfortunately gets them wet after about 30 minutes of play. The glue that holds the fluff on the balloon simply dissolves along with moisture, separating it from the balloon and allowing it to fall into pieces. Underneath the fluff is a whole host of other problems. The inner balloon consists of two rubber shells glued together, forming a balloon with an air pocket inside. However, due to the lack of an air hole for the air in the ball to escape, the pressure builds up too much when pressure is applied to the ball (such as when a dog chews) and the ball breaks along the line the rubber seam. Once that happens, it's game over (and it happens VERY quickly). This does not happen, for example, with other spheres I use that have an air hole for the tweeter. The rubber used in these balls is also of very poor quality and will crumble very easily once this stitching is torn, resulting in the puppy ACCIDENTALLY eating the RUBBER! I really expected more from this company especially when they sell those $15 balls for only 5 packs. Better quality balls of the same size can be found at Revain for a lot less. Extremely disappointing.
