Dog Balls – the Right Ball for Every Dog
Dog balls are among your four-legged friend's favorite things. As soon as one flies through the air, your dog is almost impossible to hold back. Here you'll find balls for dogs in many sizes and materials – from handy puppy balls to robust throwing balls for strong chewers.
Dog Balls in Every Size and Material
Every dog is different. One will retrieve for hours, while another prefers to chew contentedly. That's why there are dog balls made of natural rubber, solid rubber, foam, or hard rubber. The right size is crucial: the ball should be too large to swallow, but light enough to carry. Small breeds can handle handy balls, while large dogs need a decent diameter.
Do you want to keep your dog engaged long-term? Then also check out activity toys– a ball can be perfectly combined with mental work. And if you want to build up retrieving properly, you'll find what you need in dog training.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dog Balls
What ball size is right for my dog?
Rule of thumb: The ball must be significantly larger than your dog's mouth so they cannot swallow it. For small breeds, 5 to 6 cm is often enough; large dogs are better off with balls from 7 cm upwards.
Which dog ball floats in water?
Balls made of foam or special natural rubber float and are easy to retrieve from the water. Look for the "floatable" note in the product description.
Are tennis balls good for dogs?
Classic tennis balls wear down teeth over time because their surface acts like sandpaper. Balls specially designed for dogs are the gentler choice here.
Which ball holds up even with power chewers?
For strong chewers, balls made of solid rubber or hard rubber are suitable. They are particularly robust and can withstand even wild play.
