JW Pet iSqueak Rubber Ball Toy

I bought this toy at Petco about 6 weeks ago because The Naked Dog loves to play fetch.  I'm pretty sure he'd play ball until he dropped if my arm didn't give out first.  Where an 8 pounder gets that kind of energy, I don't know, but if I could bottle it, I'd be rich.

The ball is a very tough and thick feeling rubber and is 5 inches from top to bottom, but the manufacture states 2.75 inches. Measure how you will, it's a lot of ball for a little dog and bigger than a tennis ball.

Despite the size, this ball held up poorly.  The front of the ball is in perfect shape, but the back of the ball where the squeaker is located didn't fair so well.  The Naked Dog took a fancy to this part of the ball and as a result, the squeaker is coming out of the ball.  He didn't play with the toy constantly, because it was lost for a while under the couch.

The cost of the ball was $7.49, so it was most certainly not a cheap toy. The fact that the durability was so limited makes for an expensive toy and does not bode will for The Naked Dog Review.  I've retired this toy to the trash rather than risk a swallowed squeaker and a big vet bill.

Based on the poor quality and short life, The Naked Dog Review gives the JW Pet iSqueak Rubber Ball Toy a paw and a half.
