Tennis balls?
Does anyone know of a cheap place to buy tennis balls? My dogs have been through numerous balls on ropes/Orbee balls, Kong on ropes etc and I am fed up of them losing them on a regular basis. So I have "invested" in a chuckit thingy and now need a supply of tennis balls to keep this ball-mad lot going.Thanks.

Those smaller (medium sized!) hard rubber ones fit into the chuckit thingy coz I've used them with mine, and also the softer rubber type ones do, which are usually orange, again in P@H for me.In case you haven't used them before with Yogi, if he's not the type to give them up easily, they'll be flattened in a few seconds and then you risk a danger of them choking on them! I hate them now since my scare on the beach, but I had to use one coz it floats!

if you have a sport & soccer or sportsworld (not sure what it's called but it's the big shop that does all the cheap Lonsdale stuff etc... )they have good quality 4 Dunlop or Slazenger balls in a tube for £3.99 and Tilly doesn't chew them to pieces. We've had our tube for ages and only on the 2nd one (coz I threw one in a tree with my girl throwing action!)

I have used tennis balls with Yogi and he is fine with them, they do get chewed up (by all four dogs) eventually, but they all retrieve to hand, so not so bad.
What happened on the beach????
I must have missed that thread!
