Made of a bamboo body with reused cork scraps for a grippable, sweatproof handle, the bambo Wood Chuck doesn't stop there at sustainability. The ball that comes loaded in its throwing mechanism is an Orbee-Tuff RecycleBall. Check out what I learned about this Earth-friendly product at their website:
"What other toy company takes their leftover material and makes productive use of it? We don't know of any. Our RecycleBALLS® are made from "regrind" - 100% 1st quality Orbee-Tuff® material that would otherwise be discarded."

All balls eventually split, and when they do, they deserve the proper burial, out of Fido's reach in the recycle bin or dumpster. Don't leave a torn or busted ball out for play, as this becomes a dangerous plaything. Replacement Orbee-Tuff RecycleBalls are available at pet superstores and online.
Planet Dog's labeling for the Wood Chuck also mentions that some tennis balls fit nicely into the holder. It simply depends on the age and wear of the ball, which affect its flexibility for fitting into the holder.
No laughing at my throwing form. I know I throw like a girl. You don't see Tanner complaining, now do you? Of course not! He knows a good Fetch game always starts with mom. After all, Mom taught Tanner the game. Enjoy the show. Then let's have some fun with a giveaway. We love a sustainable toy!
what an awesome product. It is great to see companies start working on more environmentally friendly alternatives to plastic.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a great product. I recently saw one in one of our better pet stores and considered buying it--I use a ball thrower all the time. It's nice to know it works well.
ReplyDeleteGREAT product! A way to keep the slime off of your hands (grin) AND help the environment. Thanks for sharing Carrie!

ReplyDeleteWood Chuck® bamboo core offers strength and maximum chuck-ability with an ergonomic cork handle for comfort and grip-ability throw, after throw, after throw. I like that the employees are expected to spend 4 hours of every month working with an animal-related non-profit organization.
