This herding ball taps into your dog's natural instincts — giving them a healthy, rewarding challenge that burns energy and keeps their mind sharp.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What size is the dog herding ball and what breeds is it suitable for?
A: The herding ball measures 45 cm (17.71 inches) in diameter — a size ideal for medium to large breeds such as Border Collies, Australian Shepherds, Labrador Retrievers, German Shepherds, and other active herding or working breeds. Its large size encourages dogs to push and herd rather than bite or chew, making it a safe and engaging toy.
Q: Is the herding ball puncture-proof? What if my dog has strong claws?
A: Yes! The ball features a double-layer construction — a tough, tear-resistant outer fabric shell protects the inner air bladder from sharp claws and teeth. While no toy is indestructible, this design provides significantly better durability than a standard inflatable ball, ensuring long-lasting, leak-free play even with energetic dogs.
Q: Does it come pre-inflated, and what pump do I need?
A: The herding ball arrives un-inflated for easy shipping and safe delivery. It includes an air pump in the box so you can inflate it quickly before play. Simply pump it up to your preferred firmness and let the fun begin!
Q: Can this ball be used indoors as well as outdoors?
A: While the ball is primarily designed for outdoor use in backyards, paddocks, or open fields, it can be used indoors in larger spaces such as a garage or living room — provided there is enough room for your dog to safely push and chase it without knocking into furniture.
