The rubber around it protects it from being immediately punctured during chewing, and the squeaker keeps working even after the ball gets punctured from regular use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ2: Can I pick the color?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e No. Colors ship at random from four jewel tones. You won't be able to request a specific color when ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ3: Does this ball float in water?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e It floats initially but will eventually sink because of the squeaker hole in the rubber. It's not designed as a water retrieval toy, so keep fetch sessions to dry land. If the ball gets wet, the squeaker may be temporarily affected until it dries out fully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ4: Is this ball good for aggressive chewers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e No. This ball is built for light to moderate chewing alongside fetch. Aggressive chewers can work through the rubber and reach the squeaker faster than this construction is intended to handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ5: Is this ball suitable for playing fetch outdoors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The erratic bounce and bright jewel-tone colors make it well-suited for outdoor fetch in parks and yards. The non-toxic rubber holds up to grass and dirt exposure. Just rinse it clean after sessions and inspect the surface for wear before the next round.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ6: Does this ball dispense treats?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The Squeezz Ball does not have a fill hole or any treat-dispensing feature. It is purely a fetch and chewing ball. If you're looking for a \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/kong\" title=\"Kong | hardypaw\" aria-label=\"Kong | hardypaw\"\u003eKONG\u003c\/a\u003e ball that dispenses treats, the KONG Stuff-A-Ball is the better option as it has a stuffable hollow center.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ7: How does the bounce work differently from a tennis ball?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e A tennis ball bounces in a fairly predictable straight-line path. The Squeezz Ball's erratic bounce sends it in more unpredictable directions depending on how it lands, which keeps your dog reacting to where it actually goes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KONG","offers":[{"title":"Medium","offer_id":44487404191905,"sku":"PSB2","price":5.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large","offer_id":44487404224673,"sku":"PSB1","price":10.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"X-Large","offer_id":44487404257441,"sku":"PSBX","price":14.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0593\/2446\/5313\/files\/shop-kong-squeezz-ball-dog-toy-for-chewing-hardypaw-473.jpg?v=1779128334","url":"https:\/\/hordypaw.shop\/products\/kong-squeezz-ball-dog-toys","provider":"HardyPaw","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
