Comes with pump
Color: Colorful, Size: Large
My dogs enjoyed it but it’s not large dog proof. I have a husky and German Shepard…..the ball lasted a day before it was torn up. But this would be perfect for smaller or medium sized dogs.

Great, durable toy
Color: Blue-Red, Size: Extra Large Size 5 (9")
I’ve had this toy for a while now and my dog absolutely loves it. I frequently bring it to the dog park with us and it’s also loved by other dogs. The ball is pretty durable. My dog is not a big chewer but other dogs that play and chew on it haven’t been able to pierce it yet. The handles are sturdy and also still intact. Overall a little pricey but in my opinion worth it.
