This long range launcher is perfect for active dogs and wide open spaces. 64cm (25”) long with comfortable rubber grip. Designed for hours of easy fetch games. Minimal effort for maximum distance. You can buy a similar "looking" ball launcher from those $2.00 shops, but don't be mistaken that they will work anything like these! ChuckIt invented the Launcher, and this Ultra Ball Launcher is the top of the range! The amount of Flex in the shaft means it drives the ball much, much further than others with less effort. It has a rubberised, ergonomic handle which means easy on the user, there is no bending over to pick up the ball either, the ball holder grips the ball on the ground, which also means no slobbery balls to hold. These can be used with a Tennis ball and they come with a ChuckIt Tennis ball too, but we recommend you try the Ultra Balls by ChuckIt, you just won't believe how good they are! The medium sized Ultra Balls fit this Launcher. Please note whilst the ball size is medium, the 12 Metre launcher is a compact 30cm long. If you want the standard size Launcher select the 25 Metre option. Using a Launcher is much safer for your dog, here is why! Most people with a ball driven dog can't get big range when they throw the ball, the ball ends up going very high. This causes the ball to hit the ground and bounce high. Ball driven dogs are by now under the ball and they may leap into the air to catch it. Looks stunning but landing bad can badly injure your dog. The ChuckIt Launchers drive the ball straight and far, means by the time your dog is there the ball is on the ground. No toy is 100% indestructible. It is unrealistic to expect that from any toy. The toys that we sell here at K9 Pro are the best quality and most durable that we have found. Always supervise your dog when playing with toys. Periodically inspect all toys for damage. Do not allow your dog to continue to play with a damaged or broken toy. This product is designed to be used under direct supervision with a dog.
