Suitable for larger dogs as the ball is big. The tug handle is great, very comfortable. My only complaint is that the handle pops out of the ball - I re-thread the handle and it is fine but a bit of a hassle and the metal piece at the end of the handle has pinged me in the face which is not so great.... overall still a great toy.

Great for the beach
Great for taking to the beach! Easy to see, floats and can have a little game of tug! While we don't allow him free access to this it has lasted well with a dog who is very good at chewing!

Awesome ball
Boo the French Mastiff pup loves this ball . She swings it around by the handle ( her mouth isn't quite big enough to get a good grip on the ball yet) . She's having a blast with it. Thank you .
