Babble Ball

Millie had an early christmas pressie hadnt got a her a toy for a while so thought the Babble Ball might be her next one. Its about £9.99 in pets at home would save you P&P and would probably recomend it for young dogs under supervission as it is tennis ball sized.

all in all I would give it a 3 out of 5 not as great as I thought it would be but Millie does seem to like but looses interest after 10 seconds but wines at it when it goes quiet! Every now and then it will crow and Millie will run up to it again and start batting it around with her big paws.

Im thinking you may want to see her in action??

Len was lucky enough to get one of these as his Secret Santa presnt a couple of years ago.

He loved it!

Sadly, it only lasted a few days and just packed up. I bought new batteries for it, but it still wouldn't work.

Considering the price, I wouldn't buy one.

Very disappointing.

I remember we bought one for Hal and he absolutely adored it! It had nobbles sticking out all over it and he would hold onto these as the ball vibrated and growl, so his growl came out all shakey - it was terribly funny.

I think they are fantastic, bit heavy on the batteries. Secret is to give it to the dog to play with for a while and then remove, that way the interest is always there. Sadly when we moved they were one of the things that disappeared or maybe in a box somewhere still unpacked

I bought one of these 5 years ago when Jed was a pup. It got him quite excited but I never let him play with it for long because of the batteries. Flynn also loves it but it causes him to have a barking frenzy so the Babble Ball never sees the light of day now!

The key with the battery is to keep the plastic tab between the connections when you arent using it. I've never changed the batteries in 5 years.
