If your dog lives for fetch but your arm doesn't, this rope-handled ball might be your new best friend. The KONG Ball with Rope takes everything great about a classic tennis ball game and makes it better—starting with how far you can throw it.
The woven nylon rope running through the center isn't just for show. It gives you extra leverage so you can send this ball sailing across the yard or park with minimal effort. Your dog gets the satisfaction of a long chase, and you save your shoulder from endless overhand throws. When they bring it back, the rope also gives them something to grip during those inevitable tug-of-war moments before the next throw.
Made from KONG's signature natural rubber, this ball bounces unpredictably to keep things interesting and holds up to serious chewing sessions. The puncture-resistant design means fewer emergency toy replacements—you might actually get months of use out of this one. And because it's solid rubber rather than hollow, power chewers won't crack it open on day one.
That bright KONG Classic Red isn't just branding—it's practical. Whether you're playing in tall grass, at the beach, or near water, the high-visibility color makes it easy to track during flight and simple to find when your dog decides fetching is optional. The rope handle also makes it easier to fish out of puddles, lakes, or that one spot behind the shed where every toy seems to disappear.
Beyond basic fetch, this ball works great for training sessions. The rope gives you control during teaching moments, and the satisfying bounce makes it an effective reward for good behavior. It's sized specifically for small dogs, so they can actually carry it comfortably without struggling.
Made in the USA from globally sourced materials, this toy comes backed by KONG's decades of experience making dog gear that actually lasts. Just remember—no toy is truly indestructible, so keep an eye on playtime and swap it out if it starts showing wear. For serious power chewers, sizing up or trying the KONG Extreme line might be the smarter move.
