Snowman Tennis Buddy

Price: $12.95
Purchased from: Upmarket Pets, Melbourne

So, Santa Paws has delivered a number of 'Christmas' related toys for Dougal this year so I thought I might as well get into the spirit and review them.

First up is the SnowMan Tennis Buddy which I picked up while I was over in Melbourne.

Basically a tennis ball made into the shape of a snowman. Soft head and bum, but it did have a bell inserted into it so made an interesting jingle as it was thrown.

Dougal quite liked this toy. So much that he chewed it apart in under 10 minutes.

Admittedly, our dog does love to pull the stuffing out of toys - but this was ridiculously fast if you ask me. Even for him. Even though we threw the ball a few times for him to chase around the house, he preferred to just take it to his bed and rip it apart. Bit by bit. First the eyes, then the nose, then the rope arms.

A lovely mess was made by all. In fact it looks like its been snowing in our living room at the moment.

Dougal rates this toy:



Fun while it lasted but probably not worth the money.

Yeah...anything with a tennis ball is destroyed quickly in our household. They love to chew the felt off so I put them away unless I am there to keep on eye on things
