Interactive Canine Ball, Random Path Electrical Automated Shifting and Rolling Canine Toy with Rope for Small Medium Giant Canine, Movement-Activated Canine Stimulation Toy for Boredom Aid (Orange)

Almost Perfect
I ordered this for my dog who loved the (similar) interactive ball I purchased for him a week ago, but was easily destroyed by his jaws. This particular one appeared to be larger and more durable and I was correct, It has held up perfectly with the last few days of play. The ball isn’t really a “ball”, it is more like a motorized wheel with a rope attached. Just charge it up, turn it on (choose slow or fast speed) set it down and away it goes in a totally random pattern back and forth. It is a little frenetic, but my dog loved it. He chased it around and could even pick it up by the rope “tail” and set it down wherever he wanted. It seems to run for more than the advertised 3 minutes before going into sleep mode, but my dog was fine with that 😉 The only issue I had was when it bumps into an object, it easy tips over onto it’s side (The orange wheel parts) and then just spins around randomly on it’s side. Every once in a while it did have enough of a spin to bring itself back upright, but not often enough. That is my only complaint. Otherwise my dog is in LOVE with this new toy. It also comes with a replacement rope and wheel, just in case your dog gets a bit aggressive with it, bonus!

Entertaining and lots of laughs!
This interactive dog ball has brought us so many giggles and lots of entertainment! We have a 1 year old Bernese Mountain Dog who is skittish of all things, but tries to sound fierce. We put this toy on the ground for him and the first thing it did was flip itself and chase our dog, it was hilarious. This toy pauses just long enough to peak the dog’s interest and as they start to lean in to check it out, it will flip and start going the other way. It took our dog about a week to get brave enough to touch it, another week and he was trying to get the rope as it spun in circles, and by the next week he was able to catch it and start chewing on it. He has since bitten the orange wheel off of it and his goal is to catch it and see how long he can chew on it before it bothers his mouth and he drops it or I find out and take it away. He has not broken it yet, the wheel can be popped back on at this point. I do think if I let him have free play with it that he would eventually break it – he is a power chewer. The company did a great job at providing an extra wheel and rope in the box. I haven’t had to replace them yet, but think that was a nice touch. He does dig the wheel out from his toy bin and brings it to us to turn on. It has moved up to one of his favorite toys. This is definitely worth a try. He has enjoyed it daily and we laugh every time he plays with it. The charge lasts for a long time. We do turn it off and put it away, so if you were to leave it on and let it “sleep” I’m not sure how long it would last for. If your pup is a large breed power chewer it might not last, but if they love to play more than chew it’s a lot of fun!

Works, rechargeable, easy to use
This review is for the ” QGI Interactive Dog Ball, Random Path Electric Automatic Moving and Rolling Dogs Toy with Rope for Small Medium Large Dogs, Motion-Activated Dog Stimulation Toy for Boredom Relief (Red).”IF your dog isn’t afraid of this (some are weirded out and don’t want to play with it), and is actually interested, I can see this being a good toy to have. I like that it is interactive on its own so they can use it if you are busy or away. I also like that it is rechargeable. There are two speed modes as well.This product includes a replacement “wheel” and rope, so if one wheel is damaged you have a backup. The toy lights up, so can be easier to find in the dark and be engaging.It is pretty good at getting itself unstuck if it goes up against a wall or something, it will just reverse. However, if it ends up on its side, you or your dog will have to pick it up and set it down upright again. It is easy to turn on and off and switch modes with the press of a button. The size is suitable for medium and large dogs, the rope portion would work for small dogs even if the ball is a bit big.

Durable, fun toy entertains our dog
My Borzoi (think: greyhound plus hair) puppy (size of a pony) loves thos toy. Good thing, as she is very active for a half hour at a time. Just about right for this toy! She loves chasing it and its randomized motion keeps her interested. The attached rope adds to the atrtraction as it looks like a tail.I love that it is rechargeable, which is convenient, and it runs for a very long time between charges. Easy to use—press and hold the red button. Hold it longer to get a second, slower speed (which is not applicable to the Borzoi, which has just two speeds: Crazy and Zzzzz.)It comes with replacement parts in case the rope or wheels wear out.The box says prominently that this toy is not for aggressive chewers. Our Borzoi is a pretty aggressive chewer but she has not damaged this toy.
