Fun for dogs, saves your arm!

On: 2008-07-31

I love the ChuckIt Junior!

My dog likes to catch balls that bounce high, and it was killing my arm to put enough force into the ball to make it bounce high enough.

With the ChuckIt Junior, its more like a flick of the wrist to make that ball go sailing into the air! I can literally throw the ball for an hour without getting too tired.

The little scoop on the end is great for picking up the ball after it has been dunked in the water bowl without getting your hands icky, too.

It's Not the Length of the ChuckIt; It's How You Use It

THis is the smaller, more portable version of the 26-inch Chuck-It described below. Its easier to stow, but I believe (we need a physicist in here) that the ball will not go quite as far as the full-size version. Still, it will travel a long distance, may actaully be better for smaller dogs, and is easier to pack!

The Chuck-it is perhaps the best dog toy since the Frisbee, especially for dogs who love to run long distances to retrieve. That describes our golden retriever, for one, a dog who almost prefers chasing tennis balls to eating. Now anyone can heave a ball a long, long way so that your dog gets a satisfying workout and a more challenging retrieval. Just pick up the supplied colored ball (or a substitute, as chances are you will lose it) raise your arm high over your head and back, then fling it forward, with a slight punch at or near the top of your swing. The ball will travel far and fast. It may take a few tries, but its not too difficult to learn. With practice, you can aim the ball well, and control the distance and trajectory with fairly good accuracy (much more so than hitting a ball with a racket). The Chuck-it is flexible and Ive never broken one. Of course, for very short distances, or for a more intimate connection with your pet, you can still pick up the dog-soaked ball and throw it yourself. Highly recommended!
