When to Choose Chuckit! Ultra Ball (Medium 2-Pack)
Fetch-loving dogs and owners who want a durable, high-visibility ball
The Chuckit! Ultra Ball is the definitive fetch toy — the thick natural rubber walls outlast tennis balls by months, the high bounce is perfect for active play, and the bright coloring makes it almost impossible to lose in the yard. At under $5 per ball in the 2-pack, the value is outstanding. Not designed for unsupervised chewing.
Strengths
- High-bounce natural rubber core with thick walls outlasts standard tennis balls
- Compatible with Chuckit! launchers for extended fetch distance
- Bright orange and blue coloring is highly visible on grass and in water
Limitations
- Power chewers can eventually puncture the rubber walls if left to chew unsupervised
- Slightly smaller than standard tennis balls — may not fit all ball launchers
- Limited enrichment value beyond fetch play
When to Choose Outward Hound Hide-A-Squirrel Plush Puzzle Toy
Dogs who love foraging and owners looking for interactive puzzle play
The Hide-A-Squirrel is one of the most engaging enrichment toys available — the hide-and-seek mechanic taps into dogs' natural foraging instincts, and the squeaky squirrels sustain interest across multiple play sessions. Durability is the main weakness, making this best suited for supervised play. The availability of replacement squirrels is a smart touch that extends overall value.
Strengths
- Hide-and-seek concept with squeaky squirrels in a plush tree trunk engages natural foraging instincts
- Multiple sizes available with varying numbers of squirrels (junior, large, jumbo, ginormous)
- Replacement squirrels sold separately — extends the toy's lifespan
Limitations
- Plush squirrels and trunk are not durable against moderate to heavy chewers
- Squeakers in squirrels can fail after repeated use and washing
- Stuffing in trunk can be pulled out by determined dogs
