Best squeaky balls I've ever given to my dogs!
Ok, I have to say how impressed I am with these balls. I purchased one squeaky ball of each flavor, and figured I'd give them a shot with my cracked out spazzy aggressive chewer puppy, to see if they could hold up. She has destroyed every ball I've ever gotten her because she squeaks them to death till they pop in half and then she tears them into shreds, all within 5-10 minutes of handing it to her. She's a Doberman/Blue Heeler mix, both are very high energy dogs with a drive that can go for ages lol. Well, I can officially say that we're now a week into having these, she has spent at least 20 hours of squeaking, per ball (pretty much from the time she wakes up till the time she goes to sleep, she squeaks!) And they are still holding strong! Lol she's finally met her match. She absolutely LOVES these balls. They are fantastic! I will definitely keep buying these balls if she manages to kill any of them! It's so nice to not have thrown my money down the drain, as I have with SOOOO many other brands that CLAIMED they were durable for aggressive chewers. These ones really seem to be perfect! My only warning about them, is if you hate squeaky noises, you'll be driven insane! Lol Luckily, I think it's cute how much she squeaks the heck out of these things! It's a different sounding squeak, that she absolutely loves, but it is very very loud. I would highly recommend them, though! Thank you Playology, for actually making a durable and fun squeaky ball for all those crazy pups like mine that just love to play fetch! Amazing!

So tough! My big boy loves these!
Listen, my Staffie can chew through Kevlar with one bite. He have a ridiculously strong chew and I have had many pitbulls in my life. He shreds through leashes in seconds if you aren’t watching. But let me tell you - he tries very hard to squeak these to death but he can’t. He loves them and loves them but they never die. I especially liked the largest ones but is pictured here with a medium one which can also survive him. The different scents make him happy, they bounce well, he squeaks the heck out of them. The only damage over the last 6 months is the white stripes are now worn off and if you look really close there are very small teeth marks. He gives it 10/10. My wallet also gives it 10/10! Buy these! We are trying out the bone for Christmas.

A Pawsitively Fantastic Playtime Experience!
This is my second purchase of this ball for my Husky, who usually destroys all her toys and balls. I only purchased a second one because I forgot it and lost it at the local dog park. My dog can be distracted by any other activity or food, but once I bring this ball out and squeak it once she is immediately attracted.The irresistible bacon scent sparks immediate interest, turning playtime into a tail-wagging adventure. Their durability is a game-changer, enduring even the most enthusiastic play sessions. The unpredictable bounce keeps my furry friend engaged, providing hours of entertainment. Cleaning is a breeze, maintaining a fresh and hygienic play area. While they're perfect for medium and large dogs, those with smaller companions may need to consider the size factor. Overall, Playology Dog Balls are a top-tier choice for a tail-wagging good time!Pros:- Scent-sational Fun: The bacon-infused aroma keeps my pup engaged and excited during play.- Durable Dynamo: Built tough for medium and large dogs, withstands vigorous chewing and fetching.- Bounce Bliss: The unpredictable bounce adds an extra level of challenge for an energetic game of fetch.- Easy to Clean: Made of high-quality, washable materials, ensuring a hygienic play experience.Cons:- Size Matters: Might be too large for smaller dogs, so consider your pup's size before purchasing.

Not indestructable, but very sturdy
I have recently been blessed (and cursed) with my first Super Chewer dog, a year old Australian Shepherd. She will chew herself out of boredom, so it's imperative we always have sturdy toys readily available for her, preferably in every room.Playology and Kong by and large have been the best toys we can find for her. Kong has a very good rubber ball, bone, and ring that have held up spectacularly (no noticeable damage after months of use, except maybe some pin-prick teeth marks). Dogs need a wide range of textures though for enrichment, so we've been dabbling with the Playology line (the tire, plush bone, dry-tech rope), including this ball.The scent factor is definitely interesting. Most people know Playology for the peanut butter scents, so I was very excited to find a multitude of flavors available on Amazon, especially with the different scents clearly labeled. I choose the red or beef flavored since the only two in the medium size in stock at the time were beef and sweet potato. The scent is indeed noticeable to humans, but it's not too strong or overwhelming on its own (walking down the Playology aisle in Petsmart can be overwhelming though since they have dozens of dozens of scented toys, much like going down a candle aisle).I can't speak for the dog on how she feels about the scent, but she took to the ball immediately, same as the normal peanut butter ones we get. The medium size is pretty much perfect for her (she's just under 50lbs). It's got decent bounce for playing fetch in the house, but not so bouncy that we're afraid to use it in the house. It's got a decent density to it as well that adds to the sturdiness.The biggest issue is the squeaker. It's not an obnoxious squeaker by any means, and the dog enjoys it very much. However, when you put a squeaker in any toy, it reduces the density and creates a weak spot dogs can exploit. She did good with the ball at first and was able to sit and chew on it for minutes as a time without doing any real damage (her teeth leave lots of pin-prick teeth marks, but they don't do any real damage to the ball, just superficial marks).Aussies are considered incredibly smart though, and it didn't take her long to learn she could rip out the bottom of the ball where the squeaker is sealed inside to tear the squeaker out, thus ripping the squeaker apart and compromising the structural integrity of the ball. We're debating if we want to toss the ball in the trash or attempt letting her play with it in a supervised session without the squeaker to see if it is safe.So, overall, this is a very tough ball. It does accumulate teeth marks that are essentially harmless, but there is a weak spot in the seam where the squeaker is inserted, which means this is not indestructible. It is by and large a great ball for fetch and likely won't ever be destroyed unless a dog is left with it long enough to chew a hole through that squeaker seam. Playology balls are pretty costly though, so the risk of it becoming unusable once the squeaker is ripped out is a bit off-putting. The bright side is that if you monitor your dog, you can likely get several weeks or months of use out of the ball; just no unsupervised play sessions.7/10, durable, bouncy, and the scent keeps the dog interested, but the ball is not good unsupervised as it can be destroyed if the squeaker is ripped out. We will continue to buy Playology toys, but we will likely not buy too many of these balls until a more durable one (maybe without a squeaker) is released.

This ball is STURDYYYY!
Let me just start by saying that my 10 month German Shepherd is a heavy chewer. He will find a way to rip open any toy that I get him, and he seems to lose interest in toys quickly.This toy though!! I initially thought that the cost was way too high for just one ball, but he is in love with this ball. He barely made a scratch on it and he's had it for about a month. He doesn't want to ever leave it. Every time I try to play with him using another toy, he goes and gets this toy instead. he can play with it even on his own and he loves that it makes noise when he squeezes it. I have to hide the toy when its bed time because he doesn't want to stop squeaking the toy and I can't sleep. I sometimes hide it when I go to work or when he needs to nap.It's definitely a high value toy, I don't regret getting him this at all!

Worth it!
I have a very large dog (Rottweiler, Labrador mix) of 125 lbs that has chewed through every single toy I’ve bought him over the years. No matter how durable the product seemed, if it had a squeaker in it, it was destroyed within the day. This ball has lasted him over a month now and it’s still squeaking like it did when I bought it! My dog is very happy with it. He finally has a squeak toy that is holding up to his biting/chewing! I highly recommend this ball if you’re in search of a toy for your dog that actually holds up.

Not as tough as they say
Dog absolutely loved it but had the squeaky out inside an hour. Ball is now just like every other ball she has had . Not worth the money.

Excellent product
Our 1 year old, Shitzu/Bichon boy is a big time chewer and this ball has survived. Pete is throughly enjoying playing with his new ball. Other balls we've purchased only lasted a couple days or less. Highly recommend and will be ordering several more and will be recommending to our family and friends who are dog owners
