Ever wonder why the pet store has dog toys that are different sizes? You can find a ball for the toy breeds, the mid-size dogs, and then the exact same ball for large breed dogs.
The only differences between the balls are the size (and the price!). The reason is simple, a toy breed will not get much enjoyment out of a ball that is bigger than it! Dogs enjoy being able to have a ball they can squish between their teeth! A large breed dog makes choke on a smaller ball, and we don’t want that to happen!
In the video below, we meet Roxy, an English bulldog, who has found herself a toy. The ball is just a little too big for Roxy to get into her mouth, but that isn’t going to stop her from trying! You have got to love her persistence! Makes you want to run out and get her a new ball – right?!
