“Recycle Ball” Dog Toy for an Eco-friendly Game of Fetch

recycle-ball-dog-toyAs long as your Fido demands you throw a ball a couple hundred times a day, you might as well make it an eco-friendly ball, right?

The RecycleBall is made from “100% ‘regrind’ first-quality Orbee-Tuff® material that would otherwise be discarded.” In other words, it’s made from recycled rubber.

I love the rubber balls because you can actually wash them (and dry them quickly), and they last a lot longer than tennis balls (I’ve got some of those orange and blue rubber ones that come with the Chuck-It ball throwers). In addition, they are a bit heavier than tennis balls, so you can throw them farther. Also, my vet said they’re better on doggie teeth than tennis ball fuzz (if your dog is a chewer, apparently the yellow stuff can be abrasive for their gums).

So there you go: several reasons to pick up a dog ball made from recycled material.

This one is $12 from Branch.
