Before your pup gets their paws on their herding ball, Roger has a few very important rules: Pump the inner ball until the cover is tight and smooth with no loose fabric, then keep it for pushing, chasing and herding, not chewing, gnawing or biting.

FROM THE HEAD OF TOY TESTING

See What Roger thinks of our Outback Herder

Hi
Who it's for: Any high-drive, active pup with a strong herding instinct that needs something to chase over rougher ground.
Chew rating: Not made for any kind of chewers, this is for the chasers.
How to play: Much like the Original Herding Ball, the Outback Herder is made for hardcore interactive herding play with one or more pups. It’s a push‑and‑chase toy, not a chew toy. Apparently there are rules, and apparently I have to follow them.
Best places to play: Big open spaces like ovals, parks and paddocks, the rougher and tougher the better.
Fun Factor: I’d happily re-test this ball every single day, you know, for quality control purposes.
Roger's Verdict: 10/10 for toughness and 20/10 for fun.

ABOUT US

I'm Roger, and this is my human, Trudi

This all started with my great idea. Actually, scratch that. It started with me destroying another toy, and Trudi deciding enough was enough. 

Luckily, she knew exactly what an energetic pup like me needed: toys tough enough to survive playtime, and fun enough to let my natural instincts loose.

Together we built Hound & Co, where I personally test and approve every single toy. It’s a tough job, but someone’s got to do it.
