Dog Ball Toy Ideas

Is your dog ready for something new? Get dog ball toy ideas here!

Below are some ideas to make ball-related toys either as replacements or to provide dogs with some variety.

These toys are very inexpensive to make. Some ideas involve using an existing ball; others can be created from materials you have lying around the house.

A Nobbly Wobbly


WARNING: A ball that is too small can lodge in a dog's throat and be a choking hazard. Please make sure you size the balls correctly - they must be too big to be swallowed!


SOCK BALLS

Use old socks to make the balls, good indoors and out. They can be holey and smelly - your dog won't care! They are also washable, if you want to wash off that dog slime. See Make Dog Toys Out of Old Socks for more information.

TAPE & PAPER BALLS

Use duct tape or another kind of tape and wrap it tightly around a wad of newspaper (or another kind of paper or rags). Like sock balls, this type of ball will not be perfectly round and will roll rather than bounce... Make sure the tape stays on tight!
