Hyper Pet Fetching Dog Toys - Throwing Stick Dog Toy Made With EVA Foam - Easy To Clean & Floats On Water

I breed German shepherds. This toy is a soft formed stick made of a memory foam/ rubber polymer. It’s light weight, very durable, floats and my German Shepherds love retrieving this toy. They are not indestructible but they are a great chewing toy for their price. I usually buy several at a time. This toy will help clean their teeth and is soft enough not to damage their teeth. It’s a favorite item for my dogs.

Picture this...black lab mix and australian cattle dog fetching this "stick" on dry land. Then playing a very aggressive tug match with it....it is still holding! It looks like a wreck but not falling apart and still floats in the pool for fetch as well. I just bought a second so I have a dry land one (nasty dirty) and a cleaner version for the pool. It is light and seems not durable...but it is!

My dog absolutely LOVES this stick! I get one every time I see it on sale! It is very light, and it bounces in an unpredictable way which is why I think she loves it so much. It also floats, so it’s a super good toy for water retrieving! HOWEVER it is NOT a chewing toy, and can easily be destroyed. I don’t ever leave my dogs toys down when we’re not playing anyways because that decreases their value, so that’s not an issue for me, as well as having multiple so if she does decide to chew one I can quickly call her off it. It does have a bunch of teeth marks but whatever, it’s a dog toy. It cleans dupery easy too and while it is light it can get pretty decent distance with my throwing it.

Didn't last even an hour. This damage wasn't from the dog either, it looks like it let loose from the stress of just trying to launch it! It doesn't fly near as far as the discontinued Pig Slingshot toy. Bring back the pig, please. I also ordered the other listed Hyper Pet flying fowl, and it flew the same distance as this one, and has lasted through the day (but needs to be heavier). But for this one, perhaps they needed to double stitch the area under the 'chin'? I'll try to return it. It looks like it should be more durable, but at least that part isn't. Second one: I chose the replacement, instead of a refund because my dog loves me shooting the toys into the yard. He saw the new duck, and was excited. Six shots in and the seam on the bottom of the head was already separating. By 10 or so times, it was getting concerning as the seams were opening enough I was concerned that it would lose its filling. I'm disappointed, and so is my dog. Just in case anyone is wondering, I never let him alone with this, and still feel, even more so, that the failure is the stitching on the bottom of the head, right at the point where the most stresses of launching it are focused. I'd strongly recommend that Hyper Pet use two layers of full canvas over that area, and also Bring Back The Slingshot Pig, PLEASE... The second picture is the second Duck, and my 7 month old. He wasn't ready to end the session. The problem, for us, is that the 'dog run' isn't very long, and all of the other toys I have are bazooka style launching devices that I can't use yet as they would fly far over the fence. Ironically one is from Hyper Pet, and is amazing. Works so well. Too well?

Let's be clear up front. As it states in the description, which I failed to read (my bad), this toy is not for aggressive chewers. As anyone with a puppy can tell you, puppies are aggressive chewers as it is in thier nature to cut teeth and learn what chewing is all about. That being said I will say this is a great toy for playing fetch and water play due it its ability to float. My German Shepard really enjoys this toy as it is not rough on her teeth as some Nylon bones can be and with it being light-weight it is easy to throw with out pulling your arm out. All in all I give this toy a solid 4 out of 5 stars. Reason: The durability is exceptional however, even though the toy does hold its shape very well, over time pieces will begin to break off especially with larger dogs. This is mainly due to a larger dogs teeth repeatedly sinking deep into the toy causing small separations in the material which with time cause larger separations ultimately leading to breakage. Overall, great product. Definitely recommend for play and play only. Do not leave this in your dogs kennel as they can and will destroy it. Plus pieces may be ingested by your animal and could cause harm.

Floats well but the dog destroyed it in one fetch sessiona

dieser sehr harte, langlebige Kunststoffstock begeistert meinen Hund immer wieder - er ist selbst durch das sehr starke Gebiß meines Airedale-Rüden schwer kleinzukriegen - ich kann dieses Spielzeug für Hunde empfehlen - bjlghs

My dog loves it. Read the instructions and Don't hold it too close to your face as it will "attack" you if your hand slips.

I bought this toy whilst on holiday in the USA at a Bass Pro shop and bought it back for my medium sized Australian Shepherd. It lasted around 9 months of games of fetch and is still going but i just happened to google the brand and found theyre stocked on amazon. It is by far her favourite toy. She loves sticks and the stick shape is perfect for walks, and it is large enough to not worry about it getting stuck down her throat and the foamy material withstands her constant abuse and biting. She is not one for destroying toys, but i think if your dog does this would be able to be destroyed. So i bought a new version for when the time comes that her old one needs replacing!

I usually do not jump in to type negetive reviews but I thought some one should have said this so I didn’t buy this. As you can see in the picture, 5 month old Labrador puppy chewed this off within 15 minutes of arrival. On a plus side he did very much enjoy those 15 minutes of chewing. This is going into the bin though as I don’t want an expensive surgery cost for the sake of him being happy. Unless u have a tiny teacup dog don’t buy this.

J'ai essayé des modèles similaires chez d'autres marques et aucun ne résistait à mon (petit) plus d'une semaine.Celui-ci est fait d'une matière plus résistante, ce qui justifie son prix. Evitez par contre la version "cochon volant" car l'encoche pour le pouce n'est pas du tout pratique pour le lancer.
