My kelpie absolutely loved the ball but unfortunately it only lasted a week before she made a good sized hole in the cover. I think if she was a bit smaller and less smart the ball would have probably lasted a bit longer! Great fun for the short time that it held up.
Hi Michael,
Thanks so much for your feedback — we’re thrilled your clever Kelpie had such a blast with the ball!
They really are too smart for their own good sometimes, aren’t they?
We’d love to send you a Jumbuck (our largest size) to try — it's much harder for dogs to get their teeth around, especially the brainy, ball-obsessed types. Hopefully it holds up longer and keeps your girl entertained!
We’ll get one organised and sent your way. Let us know how she goes with the upgrade!
Cheers,
Maggie

Awesome except it only lasted 3 days . Only let her play with it in our arena once a day . 3rd day she managed to bust ball ! .
She’s a koolie and loved rounding the ball up . She some how pierced the side with her tooth and it went through the fabric and down it went
Not impressed with the ball. Broke 13 seconds into play time
I’m really sorry to hear that your herding ball didn’t last as expected. That’s definitely not the experience we want for our customers.
The herding ball is designed for pushing and herding rather than chewing, but I completely understand how frustrating it must be to have it break so quickly. I’d love to learn more about what happened—was it the cover or the inner ball that was damaged?
Please reach out to me so we can discuss a solution for you. Your satisfaction is important, and I truly appreciate your feedback.
Best regards,
Maggie

I have purchased 2 balls and sadly my German Shepard has killed both of them.
'We're sorry to hear that! The Sheepo Herding Ball is designed for herding breeds to push rather than chew and, unfortunately, is not suited for German Shepherds.'
The cover didn't last a week in the sun. Ii popped open. Very dissapointing.
'We're sorry to hear this! As noted in the instructions, the ball should not be left in direct sunlight for extended periods. Heat causes the air inside to expand, putting pressure on the seams, which can lead to splitting. We do have replacement covers in stock if you’d like to replace yours.'
