PRODUCT REVIEW
:: Flappy Dog Toys :: Floatie (USA Only)
The
Floatie from Flappy Dog Toys is a buoyant toy
that has been specifically designed for water
dogs.
We have had the toy for a while now and it has
become Monty's toy of choice when we go for walks.
I like it too because unlike tennis balls etc,
I don't have to carry it everywhere. Monty happily
trots along with it in his mouth. I think he sees
it as the next best thing to a nice big stick!!
Although the toy is not intended for aggressive chewers,
I can vouch for the fact that it is very tough. Monty
did have ago at the fabric tassels but did very little
damage and soon got bored. After around three months of
use, our Floatie is still in great condition. Pretty impressive
considering the amount of use it gets coupled with the
fact that Monty usually destroys everything he gets his
paws on!
The bright, almost fluorescent orange tassels make the
Floatie highly visible in water and mud!!! We regularly
play in a field of long grass and have lost countless
tennis balls and other toys there. So far, I have always
managed to find the Floatie when Monty's retrieval instinct
fails him....or he's just being too damn lazy to bother!
The Floatie is weighted to make it easier to throw a good
distance.
We tested
the XL size (22") for this review
In Summary:
The Floatie is a fantastic toy for a Lab. Highly visible
and durable. It really is a classic!!
