Nerf Dog Tennis Ball Blaster Toy

This is the second order of the same product. Ordered one in April and the spring wasn’t working well from day one. The second one barely lasted a week.Just ordered a third but this time directly from the US and works brilliantly so please avoid buying the local version as the spring is defective.

Well made study toy, good quality ball is included and it is ejected about 10-15m (see video). Pulling the loading mechanism is ok for an adult but my 12 year old daughter struggled a little but still managed. It is quite loud when firing so it if your dog is scared of bangs etc it may take a while for them to get accustomed to it, my two are used to loud noises so were not fussed at all.

This is a fun product. The dogs enjoy it but I can just throw a ball further. It’s more of a gimmick. But when the dogs get bored you can also show off your mad skills by shooting the ball in the air, cocking the gun it while it’s in the air, catching the ball in the barrel then shooting it up in the air again and repeating the pervious steps. My best is 3 times. It fits normal tennis balls obviously so if your mad skills aren’t as mad as mine or if you just have terrible aim when you’re playing with your dog and lose the ball it comes with over a fence you don’t have to worry. You can just use a not so snazzy looking normal tennis ball. (P.s you’re welcome for the mini game idea)

The firing distance is for a dog who ha's a "yeah a wanna play , I wanna play.....eurgh too far kind of attitude"For a ball blaster, I was expecting it to clear half an average sized field and wind some poor unsuspecting passer-by but nope it is all noise not much distance.Not all bad, the kids had about 5 minutes of fun before they decided potatoes and fruit might be more fun. It is......outside! Not in the blinking house but hey how.Save your self some moolah and grab the one on a stick thing that you can throw around for a quid

Despite what has been written about how far the ball is shot, used correctly it was certainly far enough to exercise my hyperactive adolescent GSD. She would get excited just seeing me pick it up. However I have only given it three stars as after only three months the trigger mechanism stopped working and is now totally unusable. Both me and the dog are extremely disappointed!

This was bought to replace one which my son bought previously for our dog. The elastic in that one snapped!!! We bought a new one which arrived on 21st October. Low and behold it is the 13th November and the elastic in the new one has snapped again!!!! Less than a month old. Will not be ordering another one in a hurry. Not recommended at all.......... :O
