2016 Active Dog Holiday Gift Guide: Dog Toys

Do you have an active dog? For 15 years old, SUGAR is still high-energy and loves to play. She’s a typical golden retriever that is obsessed with tennis balls and enjoys fetch play. If your active dog loves to run, fetch and tennis balls, keep his/her tail wagging with these three fun dog toys.

Active Dog Holiday Gift Guide: Dog Toys

1. PetSafe Automatic Ball Launcher is awesome to use indoors or outdoors.

The PetSafe Automatic Ball Launcher has nine different distance settings and six angle settings. The multi settings allow you to use in small spaces indoors, or out in a big park. SUGAR still needs to learn to drop the ball into the top of the unit and not to stand in front of the unit.

SUGAR gets so excited and impatient when the tennis ball is launching. PetSafe Ball Launcher has an auto sleep function; after many ball launches it stops – a good reminder to take a break and treat your dog.

2. ChuckIt! Sport LX Launcher System – SUGAR loves ChuckIt dog toys. ChuckIt! Sport LX Launcher System is designed to take interACTION with your dog to the next level. The whole family (and friends) have an opportunity to get into fetch play fun.

It comes with two launchers (lacrosse style basket) for throwing and catching, plus can be used for hands-free, slobber-free tennis ball pickup.

On the video, we only used one launcher. We will share more about ChuckIt! Sport LX Launcher System on our Holiday Petmate Gift Guide and we will have a special giveaway.

3. Hyper Pet K9 Kannon is a plastic gun that shoots a tennis ball around 30 feet.

It’s a good range if you have a limited or small play area. Hyper Pet K9 Kannon looks easy to operate, but you need some strength in your hands and fingers to pull back the spring tension. We have a lot more to share in upcoming post review.
