Chew Test Why Every Dog Should Have a ChuckIt! Ultra Ball
The classic orange and blue ChuckIt! Ultra Ball is a dog toy icon. It has just the right weight, feels good in the hand and not heavy enough to rock the house, damage your walls or furniture.
Fun Factor
This ChuckIt! ball has a great balance to it, not too bouncy yet still very lively when thrown. The rubber material has a good grip and a nice feel to so tossing it around always felt natural. Combine those two things and you have a dog ball that you’ll enjoy throwing and your dog will love to chase.
The Ultra ball comes in a vibrant orange and blue which definitely looks like a dog toy and is easy to spot so you won’t trip over it. It also floats and can be thrown into water for dogs that fancy a good swim.
Quality & Durability
I’ve had 3 of these balls now and none of them got destroyed. I simply lose them from bad throws and I throw them a lot!
After two years’ worth of use, these dog balls have not shown any scratches, shredding, bite marks or any signs of wear.
What’s even more impressive is that my dog will use this as a dog chew toy and power chew it like gum for hours. The ball held up every time after all that chewing, it is just remarkable.
Safety
This ChuckIt! dog ball is very safe and easy to clean. It hasn’t shred, chip, flake or shown any bite marks even after 2 years of use. That is proof to the quality and durability of the rubber used to build this toy. I would not worry about this toy falling apart or leaving it with a dog unattended.
Indoor Use: This ball has a fair amount of bounce to it so watch out where you throw it. It can reach breakable objects on counters and tables.
Outdoor Use: Over time the ridges on the toy may trap some dirt. Keep an eye on it and clean as needed.
Value
Based on my experience with it, this is an indestructible dog toy for my Rottweiler. We are still happily using it every day and that gives this ChuckIt! ball full marks for value. It might be a bit more expensive than a tennis ball or average fetch ball, but the few extra dollars are well worth it.
Final Thoughts
After 2 years of heavy use there aren’t any signs of wear. It looks and feels like the day it was bought, making it always exciting to play with. That is why it is a great hit with medium and large size dogs. There is a small version for smaller dogs available as well. The ChuckIt! Ultra should be a part of every dog toy collection.
