Our Boy Loves the Distance
The Chuckit Classic has completely changed our playtime routine! Just the other day, I took my energetic Labrador, Tucker, to the park with this launcher in hand. From the moment we arrived, he was buzzing with excitement, ready for a good game of fetch. With a simple flick of my wrist, I sent the ball soaring across the field, and Tucker took off like a rocket!What I love most is how effortless it is to use. Instead of straining my shoulder with repetitive throwing, the Chuckit allows me to launch the ball farther than I ever could on my own. After several rounds of play, I realized my shoulder felt great—no soreness, just pure joy! Tucker, on the other hand, was in doggy heaven, racing after the ball and returning it with an enthusiastic wag of his tail.The length is perfect for giving me a good distance without needing to hurl the ball with all my might. Plus, the durable design means it can withstand all of Tucker’s enthusiastic catches. Overall, this launcher has made our fetch sessions not only more enjoyable but also healthier for me. I highly recommend it for any dog owner looking to make playtime a blast for both their furry friend and themselves!

Saves my arm!
I love it! My dog likes to play fetch! Perfect with a tennis ball. I was so surprised how easy to use and how far the ball will go! I like that I don’t have to bend down to insert the ball in the Chuckit pocket. Just wished I got it sooner. Made very durable and light weight. I strongly recommend this!

Best toy, the end
Combined with the Max Glow ball, this is the best dog toy available on modern planet Earth.I have a burly 92lb. pit bull mix with highly developed prey drive, and she will chase the glow ball for hours if I let her.The tiny sport launcher (Sport 12M) is the best, because you can still throw the ball really far, but you can also slam the ball down a few feet away from yourself so it bounces up in the air and your dog has to jump to catch it, or you can throw it up really high so it bounces 15′ away or so and your dog can jump to catch it. We sometimes have to play fetch in a pretty small area, so it’s nice to have the small launcher for these games. The larger launchers aren’t as fun in small areas. You can play the same games but it’s trickier to throw the ball correctly.Also, the small launcher is a lot easier to carry. The small launcher fits in my dog-walk-stuff backpack (with the ball in the launcher so I don’t have to dig for it later), but the big ones don’t easily. The launcher also has a hole in the end so you can hang it from your bag or whatever with a carabiner. The big ones are too long for that in most cases, and swing back and forth.Also-also my dog loves to ask for the launcher, then when I give it to her she plays keep-away and it’s adorable. The big launcher I have is harder for her to balance in her mouth, so she just lays down and chews on it until it gets taken away. She’s chewed on all of the four Chuck Its we’ve owned, but she’s only broken one (a big one), but that’s because she got ahold of it when no one was home. The little one in my bag is totally chewed up but still works great. I think they’re sturdier than the big ones. Except for the launcher she chewed into pieces, which was our fault, the only reason we’ve had to replace anything was because we lost it. Usually we keep the launcher and ball in the backpack so she can’t get to them and so they don’t get lost, so we rarely have to replace them. There is just not a better value in toys, and the startup price is really low.Once again I really recommend the glow ball! It doesn’t get soggy no matter how wet the grass or the dog mouth is. It is fun to chase because it is slippery and it collapses when it’s squeezed, so it pops out of the dog’s mouth and flies away if they bite it at the wrong angle; it’s really bouncy, and stays bouncy because it can’t be popped; it whistles so you can usually hear it even if you can’t see it; and it really glows enough for nighttime catch, even if you only have your cellphone flashlight to charge it up!UPDATE:I should have said, we have the 12M launcher, which means the handle is 12 inches long and it uses a medium-sized ball. The medium ball is 2.5 inches in diameter, so the launcher will fit regular tennis balls, too! But my dog won’t play with regular tennis balls anymore because they aren’t anywhere near as fun as the glow balls, and I think she doesn’t like having gross sloshy muddy tennis balls in her mouth.I lost my short launcher awhile back and could only get a long one locally to replace it, which reminded me that you have to lean over a lot further to use the short launcher. So if you have trouble leaning over to the point that your hand is a foot above the ground, this may be hard for you to use.I wish Amazon would let us choose colors, because my old one was green, and the big one is orange, both of which are bright enough to see in the grass from far away, even at night.Still, best toy!

Extremely durable!!!
I love this chuck it, and so does my dog! The ball Flys super far rather than using a generic brand. I definitely recommend this one because it’s super easy to clean after using, and its durable! It even held up after being used as a chew toy from my puppy. It’s super fun and doesn’t make any noise and hasn’t broke in the months I’ve had it even through being chewed on.

THIS IS THE ONLY TOY MY DOG WILL PLAY FETCH WITH!!
I’ve been on a year long journey to teach my puppy to fetch. He’s a high energy breed and just runs away from me with every toy. It’s been difficulty to get him to understand fetch and I’ve spent a fortune on toys we can play fetch with. But with this Chuckit toy, it was so easy.I show him the chuckit with the ball in it and prepare him by asking if he’s ready in an excited voice. Then I launch the ball. When he returns with it, I wave the stick in the air and ask if he’s ready. Luckily, this has signaled to him to drop the ball if he wants me to through it again and I can scoop it up and repeat. From what I understand having the stick allows me to grab the ball back without me lunging for the ball, which helps my dog understand the game thoroughly. Overall, great product and problem solver for my high energy pup!

My dog loves it but cracked chuck-it ball
My dog really enjoys that I can throw the ball much further than without the wand. However the ball that is came with has already cracked after one play session. The wand works with regular tennis balls though so we are still having fun. Just wish the ball was more durable!

She loves it!
Great value and quality for our fur baby. Much cheaper than store bought. Perfect length for picking up ball if and when your dog brings it back to you. Very durable. Really chucks the ball out there.

Great for tennis balls and long throws with ease.
Ball is soft, durable, bouncy and withstands a good chewing. Bright color easy to find. Functioned really well being able to throw far. We were very happy with this purchase and would recommend.

Fantastic item. I also have the longer size, but honestly don’t notice any difference in throw distance and this one is a much more convenient size to clip to your belt or jacket.Nice tight fit so balls don’t slip out.The one “drawback” is the nice grippy rubber handle is surprisingly slippery when wet, from dogs eating treats out of your hand or whatever.All in all still total 5 star product.

Nada nesse mundo deixa meu cachorro (border colie) mais feliz do que correr atrás dessa bolinha. A qualidade é maravilhosa, o lançador é muito prático – não só ajuda a lançar mais longe e cansar menos como também evita que sua mão fique completamente gosmenta de pegar bolinha babada. Funciona bem com praticamente todas as bolinhas m da Chuckit! e é fácil de levar pq é o modelo mais compacto.Um dinheiro bem gasto.

It’s worth it to spend a few extra dollars on the Pro version of the chuckit lign up of ball throwers.Awesome grip, rain ☔ or shine 🌞Nice a sturdy, great quality and will last much longer than the cheaper models, especially in the cold.If your dog is addicted to playing fetch like my Marlie, get the Pro version, you won’t regret it.Marlie and I use to go through at least two chuckit ball throwers per year, now this one will last much longer.You’ll love it, plus get greater distance and your furry family member Will love you more for itEnjoy it!!

My son said he wanted a ball launcher when he played with the dog. He said that it was too small when he got it but has since found that it was the sport launcher and was really pleased with the launch speed and distance.The dog needs a good sleep when he comes in now as he gets a good workout! If you can get hold of the Eco ball from chukit which is made from recycled rubber it outshines the original Chukit ball.
