Mini Retrieve Toys on a Rope - ideal for small dogs

This is the smaller version of the Ball with Towelling Tugger. It is an ideal training aid for tiny and small dogs who can carry the vinyl toys by the cotton rope  "arms" and gently squeeze the toy to get a soft airy squeak (imitating how they would kill rodents).

By encouraging your dog to hold and carry the toy by the rope rather than having to hold the 5cm vinyl toy in its mouth, the dog learns to build happy associations with retreive games and "balls". Gradually over a period of time the rope can be cut shorter and shorter until your dog is happily carrying the vinyl toy rather than using the material.

See our Dog Game "Hand" for further tips and information about teaching dogs to retrieve items to your hand.

Available in four styles - Yellow Cat, Purple Blackcurrant, Red Ladybird, Green Tortoise
