I love the Bende ball with a t-handle since Bosco gets his front leg stuck in loop handles. I've had my Bende balls for four years and they still look like new but they are only used for obedience (the dog isn't allowed to power chew it for 8 hours on his own).

Anyone tried the Ray Allen balls,they also float? look sturdy but?? $11.99 each.

Again, thank you guys for all the feedback. I have been using the 2.5" (middle size) balls but they only last a handful of training sessions before the ball is so deformed that the rope stop pulls out of the body of the ball. I am going to order some of the ones you guys suggested and give them a go.

Ray Allen is on my do not buy list. More than disappointed in their products the past few years to say the least.

I wanna see a video of your dog! only lasting a handful of sessions has to be a some kind of a record

Thx Zdog just searching... I had one tennis ball on rope last l session with two dogs. Had to confenscate and throw away. Was too funny though but of course a cheapy. But really...Nan

@mklevin - Sure, can shoot you some video tonight while doing ob work with my magnetic ball... And please, dont get me wrong here, the balls are still in tact but the opening where the rope comes through gets torn and the stopper will no longer hold the rope in... Can take pictures of those too. I am not the only one this happens too, most people at the club have just gone to less expensive ones from ForDogTrainers.com because they have the same issue with the Elite yellow 2.5" balls.

The elite K9 balls just don't hold up to a working dog. I tried one several years ago and it losted a couple of weeks. Stay with the Gappay balls/Hallmark K9. They last for years.

I agree with this for some things but their original leather agitation muzzle is excellent!
