From the smallest specks of life to the largest creatures, this engaging picture book shows the many shapes and forms life takes all around us. What is life? It’s constantly moving, growing, reproducing, and dying. It’s happening now, all the time, and it’s everywhere around us. From little helicopter seed pods that float through the air to blue whales in the ocean, the world is filled with all different types of odd and familiar kinds of life. This whimsical picture book helps young readers see the connections between all living things. Author and illustrator Christian Borstlap’s furry, feathery, smooth, and spiky creatures crawl, eat, growl, fly, and interact with one another. While most of his creations are imaginary animals, they all depict real things that organisms must do to survive and thrive. Bold and quirky illustrations tug at kids’ imaginations and help demonstrate complex concepts that can be hard to put into words. The book leaves lots of room for discussion and for new discoveries with each reading.

Works great for scent work! Bounce is great for air retrieve!
Size: 2-pack, Style: Duo, Size: 2-pack, Style: Duo
My dog doesn’t know he loves them yet but I do! They are a little softer so when we do air retrieve, I don’t have to worry as much about his teeth! I’m hoping he will learn to find them by smell vs sight. We often play in the evenings and he tends to loose his ball. Love chuck it! Right now, we have about 10 chuck it balls! The tennis balls don’t work for air retrieve! Chuckit does!!! Love the thrower too! Saves my arm!!!!

I guess the smell is offputting
Size: 2-pack, Style: Duo
My dog loves chocolate stuff. But for some reason, wasn’t a huge fan of these balls. She played with them a little bit, but they’re not her favorite.

Really indestructible
Color: Yellow
As advertised. I have an obsessed 16lb mixed breed dog that has destroyed everything purchased that says indestructible. Until now... These balls really are indestructible. She loves them and plays with 2-3 at a time. Chews on them and still going. They are the size of regular tennis balls. Others are slightly smaller. These are great and bright... Mooky highly recommends.

A Dog’s REAL Best Friend!
Color: White, Color: White
This ball is truly my dog’s best friend! It is perfect especially for indoor fetch because it’s lightweight (AKA nondestructive!), has just the right amount of bounce, and cannot be torn up by mild to medium chewers. (We have a labradoodle and she isn’t much of a chewer.) It really is bite resistant, and I have a video to prove it!
Our dog loves the softness of it. We love that we can throw it around the house without it breaking anything. It almost feels like heavy duty bouncy styrofoam that cannot be picked at or bitten up. We bought the pack and are storing a couple of them for when we someday lose them here and there.
I recommend this ball to EVERYone who has a dog and likes to play fetch!
FOFOS, pick us for ads! My doggie is obsessed with your product, and I love taking pics and videos of her using it. She’s the type of dog that walks around with a ball in her mouth for fun and comfort. Think of it as her stuffed animal.
