My boy Kobe is absolutely obsessed with these herding balls. I got the smaller one due to a smaller yard and it suits very well, however, its much more fun out in the open field at a friend's. Just look at his point of view I captured on camera. My favourite thing to see is when he jumps and boops the ball with his snoot in the air

Hi Kayla, thank you so much for writing this review!
Love the mid air shots of Kobe, especially the one of Kobe's point of view! - He looks very skilled and looks like he loves the herding ball!
Have a lovely day!

So far it's the only ball that has stood up to our Bull Arab & he absolutely loves it wears him out nicely 🤘
Store owner replied:
Hi Vanessa,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this. How great are these rings.... one of my boys favs too. Love that air shot, he looks like he is standing.
You have the best day, and thanks for making mine.

Kaos absolutely loves this ball! 🐶💙 He loves pushing it with his nose, chasing it around and playing with it at the park. It keeps him active and happy, and he gets so tired afterwards! Definitely one of his favourite toys. 🐾
Store owner replied:
Thank you for writing this kind review Monica!
Kaos looks so happy with himself in that photo! - love the name too, so cool!
So great to get their energy out and watch them have fun!
Have a great day!!

This is the best money I have ever spent. Jasper absolutely loves this ball and it exhausts him in around 20 minutes but he still wants to keep going.
Store owner replied:
Hi Cathy, thank you for taking the time to write this review!
We are so thrilled that you and Jasper love the Outback Herder!
So amazing to watch your pups herd the ball and also get all their energy out!
Have a lovely day!

Jagger’s Herding ball takes its inaugural flight….👏👏❤️
Love, love, love….
Store owner replied:
Thank you so much for writing this review and including this amazing video of Jagger showing off his skills with the herding ball!
We love seeing your dogs play with the herding ball - brings a smile to our face!
Love the words of encouragement in the video as well - he is really getting the hang of it!
Mia, Trudi & Roger :))
This is the best product ever!❤️
“He’s got the moves like Jagger”…….
A real crowd pleaser🙏
Store owner replied:
Thank you for sharing this Harris!
So great to see your 2 doggies playing together with the herding ball - such a great stimulating activity and gets all their energy out!
Also amazing how much space they have
Mia, Trudi & Roger :))
Sammy absolutely loves the ball. The only downside is it keeps sliwlt
deflating. It doesn't stay properly inflated for 1 day which is a bit disappointing.
The Herding Ball was exactly what we were looking for to stimulate Jagger, a 15 month old Koolie X Kelpie.
The bundle offered better value with a Flirt Pole included and this was also on our list, so a win win!
He has the “moves like Jagger”…
Store owner replied:
Hi Tracey, thank you writing this review!
Such a beautiful dog Jagger is and he looks so happy with his herding ball!!
Would love to see some of Jaggers moves :))

My girl loves her herding ball. 20mins and she is spent.
Store owner replied:
Hi Peter
Thank you so much for sharing this. Listen to that excitement… my boy does that, it drives me mad but I am smiling inside. I have to say that view is amazing. You have so much to smile about 😀 thanks for making my day.
Trudi
He loves it. He's still trying to bust it though, so he can carry and shake it around.
Store owner replied:
Hi Shelly, thank you so much for writing this review!
The Outback Herder is really a great durable and tough ball perfect for outdoors!
Such a cute pup you have too!
Mia, Trudi & Roger
Fantastic product! Our 10 month old kelpie pup got the hang of the herding ball immediately. She is exhausted after being left to play for less than 15 minutes. Surpassed all expectations! Trudi went above and beyond when we had some delivery issues - thank you!
Store owner replied:
Hi Jeremy
Thank you so much for sharing this, she is doing so well. So glad we got one it sorted for you… you will love this more than she does. Nothing better than a exhausted Kelpie 🙌
Trudi & Roger
I brought this for my boys 2nd birthday. Unfortunately my dogs are chewers too and he managed to pop the ball in under 30 minutes. But they had so much fun before he punctured it. But the great part is the inner balls are replacable. And I'm sure they will get many more sessions and loads more fun yet.
Store owner replied:
Hi Hayley,
Thanks so much for sharing and so glad Bruce loves it. That smile says it all and those ears !!! Bruce would be a champ at herding I bet 🙌🏻

Great video of your puppy using the Herding ball! - great way to get all their energy out and as you said to train them too.

My Aussie shepherds love this toy. 5 minutes is all it takes to tire them out. I love how tough it is.
Store owner replied:
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review Gael!

Such a great video you've attached showcasing how the herding ball is used by dogs! - your pup has got is down packed!
Happy Birthday to Ziggy from Hound & Co!! - hope he continues to love his herding ball.
Mia :))
I’ve spent lots of money on different herding balls that pop immediately or the cover is way too big - I finally took the leap and purchased the outback herder, and I’m amazed at the quality.
We’ll definitely purchase another, should that day come.
Store owner replied:
Thank you so much for writing this review Maddi!
We have so many people that love our herding balls because of its durability for high energy dogs - especially our Outback Herder!
So amazing to know that you and your pup are loving the Outback Herder as well!
By the sounds of that video, it seems that your pup is always excited to play with the Outback Herder!
Mia :))
Hugo the saint Bernard is a very happy customer. He loves the herding ball, and gets to use his physical energy and mental energy at the same time and gets exhausted quickly. Couldn't be happier with quality and the customer service.
We had some issues with the first order, but was resolved very quickly.
Thanks hound and co.
We love the ball
Store owner replied:
Hi Lani,
I am so glad it has arrived and Hugo is happy again. Thank you so much for your patience Lani it was really appreciated, and thank you for sharing this with us.
Please reach out if you have any further issues.
Have lots of fun!

I have a Kelpie who has space but needed stimulation. I am recovering from a serious car accident for the past 2 years. This is a God send! I can't take him on long walks atm so this is a great compensation. He will play with it continuously but needs to be supervised. He does get it stuck in places. It gives me exercise but more importantly it stimulates him. He sleeps so peaceful. One note of caution though I had to blow it up with the zip just over half way closed otherwise its impossible to zip up and if not pumped up tightly He managed to puncture the inner ball. We had a spare that was perfect to replace with! 5 stars from us! Jet loves it!
Store owner replied:
Hi Mark, Trudi has reached out to you in an email, replying to this review.
I wish you all the best and a speedy recovery!

My BC Gypsy loves her new ball❤️
We try to take her to the park as often as we can🐾
Store owner replied:
Hi Helen, what a beautiful pup you have, and thank you so much for this review!
Amazing to hear that the herding ball is working so well for you and your pup!! An open park is the best space for your pup to use the herding ball!

It took Alfie about 15 seconds to work out what to do with his new herding ball
He’s obsessed - absolutely loves it
Thankyou Hound & Co

Our 8 month bordercollie absolutely loves the herding ball
Store owner replied:
Thank you for this sweet review Angela!
Amazing to see your pup having fun with their herding ball and all that space for them to herd it around!
Looks like your pup has already got the hang of it - such a smart pup!
Mia :))
We were debating a lot about whether this herding ball would be worth the money, after a couple runs in the back yard and at the park it has to be our collies favourite game, not to mention it wears him out in a way fetch never could. We got the extra tough one as you can see he loves to try and give it a chew, it has held up against many of his attempts to pop it. We are so impressed and would recommend it to any of our friends with very active dogs who need lots of mental stimulation.
Store owner replied:
Hi Ruby, thank you so much for writing this kind review!
We are beyond happy that you and your Border Collie love the outback herder! Such a great way for them to get their energy out!
Love the video you have attached - such a cute pup!!

Best dog toy purchase I have ever made!
Nahla is an American Staffy X Rottweiler and every toy we get her never lasts any longer than 5 mins before she has destroyed them and lost intrest.
The Outback Herder is absolutely the exception.
It has taken pure punishment and is still cracking on. Even when it's not fully pumped up and she can grab it, thrashing it like she is on a murder rampage, it survives.
Nahla absolutely loves her Outback Herder.
Thank you for making a toy that can take a beating from a strong dog.
Worth every cent!
Store owner replied:
Thank you for writing this review Clare!
Nahla is such a beautiful pup! Really amazing to see how much you guys love the outback herder - reminds us why we do this!
Have a lovely day!

Poppy took to the herding Ball like a champion, she was excited from the moment she clapped eyes on it, couldn't be happier. It seems to be made very well and is cattle dog proof!

Hi Anthony, thank you for this review!

Such a cute pup you have, and so happy hearing that your pup loves the herding ball!

I have bought these balls previously and our border collie x Australian shepherd loves them. They are quite soft but she hasn't destroyed them yet! I got the ring to try and she loves this toy as well and it is much easier to have a tug of war with. Highly recommended!
Store owner replied:
Hi Nicola, thank you for writing this review!
Brings a smile to my face hearing that you and your pup love the Astro ring and Astro balls!
Tug of war is such a great game to have with your pups, I play it with my doggies and they love it too!
Mia :))
Mia loves her herding ball.
She even loves when we pump it up! Especially the noise the pump makes
Her natural herding instinct is in full swing. I think its safe to say this ball has served its herding purpose.
Store owner replied:
Hi Nicole, thank you for this kind review!
Such a cute dog and especially because we have matching names (not being bias :)
It sounds like when you're pumping up the herding ball, she can't contain her excitement, which is amazing!
Mia :))
Excellent quality….. our rottie Mack is obsessed with his herding ball 🐾👍
Store owner replied:
Hi Larissa, thank you for writing this review!
Love the name Mack and so great to hear that he is loving his herding ball!
Love the video you have included too, such a bundle of joy!
Mia :))
Titan absolutely loved it! I think maybe there was not quite enough air in it as he managed to grab hold of a seam.. so i will try again tomorrow with more air!
Store owner replied:
Hi Maryann,
Thank you for writing this review!
So glad Titan loves his herding ball!!
Make sure you have a look at our video on how to put the herding ball together as it will seem as though its pumped up fully but more air is needed so the inner ball fits nicely with the cover!
This will prevent your dog grabbing any part that might rip!
Best of luck, Mia :))
Winnie absolutely adores this herding ball! As a working dog, it gives her the exact stimulation she needs. I would definitely recommend this for anyone who has a ball crazy dog!
Store owner replied:
Hi Kelsey, thank you for writing this review!
Such a cute doggy you have and so happy to hear that Winnie loves her herding ball!

Our 9 year old Cattle dog who would play fetch for hours if you let her then still want more, is loving her herding ball. We give it to her for about 20 minutes a day and every morning she looks for it. The exhaustion after playing with it is nothing like we have experienced before. Highly recommend this product.
Store owner replied:
Hi Kylie, thank you for writing this review!
