Really great toy!
Date: May 21, 2007
"This toy is really fun to play with your dog! The ball goes really far when throwing it! Also, you don't have to pick up the ball with your hands! Really an enjoyable toy to take to the park."

The next best thing for ball throwing
Date: February 5, 2007
"I have a Lab, Pom and Yorkie who all love to chase balls. The best thing for me is, with this, I no longer have to touch the soaking wet ball full of dog drool. Not to mention, it tires them out, not me, as a women, I can't throw that far, this will really send the ball flying! After 20 min. of chasing their balls around the yard, they are ready for a break. If you dog loves to play fetch, you need this. Also I have found it works on tennis and rubber balls as long as it is the same size as a tennis ball."

Money Not Wasted
Date: January 1, 2007
"So many dog toys, so little money to try them all, not knowing how long they will last and if your dog will like it. If your dog likes to chase balls/play fetch, this is the dog toy to end all dog toys!!! Bailey is an Aussie/sneaky neighbor dog mix-lots of energy and she gives this toy a BIG "paws up". A simple idea that works as advertised and is inexpensive. Too bad all dog toys don't live up to what this one does.
Highly recommend to anyone that has a high energy dog that likes to play fetch. You won't be sorry a month later about buying this one. A big "thank-you" to the person/people that came up with it!!!

Amazing toy!
Date: November 23, 2006
"I bought the Chuckit for my dog Niamh on her first birthday last March and let me tell you it is by far the best dog toy I've ever seen. The chuckit lets me throw the ball much further than I could without it and it's deffinately a bonus to not have to handle the soggy tennis ball.
It snows a lot where I live so during the winter it's hard to play fetch with my dogs because I always end up losing all my tennis balls, but this toy solves that problem too! When the snow is just right, the chuckit makes perfect snowballs. It dosn't throw them quite as far as it does a normal ball, but my dogs have a blast chasing after the snowballs and trying to catch them before they hit the ground. I recomend this product to EVERY dog owner."

Save Your Shoulder
Date: November 18, 2006
"This tennis ball "Chuckit" is probably one of the best dog accessories I have ever purchased. Aside from the fact that "I throw like a girl," I also have a bad shoulder. I used a tennis racket to try to throw the ball far enough, but this is superior because (1) you don't have to reach down to pick up the ball, (2) [perhaps best of all] you don't have to handle a slimy ball and (3) for the fist time I can throw the ball a good distance so I can give the dogs a good workout without hurting my shoulder."

Wish I'd thought of it!!
Date: June 21, 2006
"Is this little thing ever helpful! I've got a dog who loves to fetch and this is the perfect contraption. It throws far with very little pressure (I've thrown balls over the house before!) and keeps the wet, soggy ball out of my hands. I LOVE it - it is an essential in our play. Recommend 100% A+ A+ A+ A+ A+ !!!"

Great for those dogs who are hard to tire out!
Date: May 14, 2006
"I've had my Chuckit for several years now, and it's still my dog's favorite toy for off-leash exercise. It throws the ball *much* farther than I could ever throw it myself, and as a bonus I never have to deal with a slimy tennis ball in my hand. A simple toy that's tough to beat!"

"After I bought this it was the end of picking up nasty, slobbery tennis balls! I take it to the dog park with me and throw the ball all over for my dogs (and others) without having to become as slobbery and dirty as the ball!"

"Where's the Chuckit?"
Date: March 20, 2006
"Our Cocker Spaniel has enjoyed the Chuckit for years--in the yard, on walks, across the park fields, at the beach. We highly recommend this dog toy--great exercise, long runs, high fun, NO slimy, squishy, slobbery ball to pick up! If your canine loves/lives to fetch like ours does, Chuckit is for you!"

Love it Love it
Date: November 29, 2005
"I love it! My golden retriver is a ball maniac and now I don't have to touch that slimy gross wet ball anymore. You just pick it up with the Chuckit and you chuck it! My dog plays for hours with this toy and never gets tired of chasing after that old raggedy ball."
