No more sore shoulders and no more slobbery balls to pick up! You will be surprised how easy and effortlessly you will be able to launch a tennis ball for your pooch to hurl themselves after.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is an absolute joy for all concerned. It is an excellent form of exercise for your pet and something that they love to do over and over again. With practice, you will be able to launch balls as far as 140 feet for those canines that are fetch-happy retrievers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even with the pets that prefer a shorter lob, the Chuckit!\u00a0 is ideal for shorter throws. There is nothing hard about using one of these ball launchers. Whether you have a wicked backhand or are a southpaw, this launcher makes playing fetch fun.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just a little over two feet in length, the Chuckit! tool snaps around a standard tennis ball. Lightweight and portable, leave one in the car for the times you are at the beach or in a grassy field.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You also never have to pick up a sloppy sodden ball with the Chuckit! There is no need to bend over and pick up a ball, just snap the tool over the ball, and you are ready to fling it again. The beauty of the launcher is that kids can use it, and it is perfect for those less athletic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My neighbor has issues with her joints, and she sits in a chair and uses the Chuckit! while her eager pet Mabel gets the fun and exercise that she craves and needs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both are happy, and Mabel returns to the house ready for some couch time after her sessions outdoors.

You will be able to see their excitement when they know the launch is imminent!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"maxbutton-365 maxbutton maxbutton-taste-of-wild-pacific amazonBtn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2LEykTf\"><span class='mb-text'>Check on Amazon<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong># 7 <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3lNVtB1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"external\">All For Paws (AFP) Automatic Ball Launcher<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B07PYPGL27&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=topdoghub-20&amp;language=en_US\" border=\"0\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"https:\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=topdoghub-20&amp;language=en_US&amp;l=li3&amp;o=1&amp;a=B07PYPGL27\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your smaller pet should not be left out of the fun, and with this automatic ball launcher, they will not be.

When looking for a ball launcher, here are some things to consider.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/topdoghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/shutterstock_1765323641-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4380\" src=\"https:\/\/topdoghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/shutterstock_1765323641-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"dog ball launcher\" width=\"648\" height=\"432\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><b>Automatic Or Manual<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This will be your preference. Manual ball launchers bring you into the fun and give you time to be outdoors, too. It also is a time of bonding between you and your pet. Another aspect of a manual launcher is that it gives you time with your furry buddy to observe them in action.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are they running with ease? Do you see them favoring a paw or a hip? Are they able to see the ball clearly and scout out where it went? Another advantage of a manual launcher is that they are inexpensive. You could have one at home and one in the car to be ready for fun when away from home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An automatic ball launcher is pricey, but it has the advantage of keeping up with your pet. Once you teach your smart pooch to load the launcher themselves, you can do yard work or sit in a lawn chair with a book while they play to their heart&#8217;s content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some automatic ball launchers have different distances the ball will launch, and others let you set it, so the distances are random, which adds a fun aspect to the game of fetch. You can also get a launcher that will turn off after 15 minutes of play so that your pup doesn&#8217;t overdo it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It all depends on which type of ball launcher, manual or automatic, will work best for you and your pet.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Ease Of Use<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both types of ball launchers, manual and automatic, are designed with the pet owner in mind, too. Before purchasing a manual launcher, look at how the ball is launched.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some have a pull-back trigger, and some take a bit more effort to launch with their mechanism. Make sure that the launcher is one that you can handle over and over, which is what your pet is going to want.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ensure that an automatic launcher will be easy for your pet to use and one that will suit the size of the play area.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Source of Power<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a manual launcher, you are the source of power. For an automatic, find out if they have to plug in or if they take batteries. Ideally, a unit will have both power sources.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rechargeable batteries are the best as you will not have to keep a supply of extra batteries. Most rechargeable will last through hundreds of launches.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>The Size Of The Ball<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have a bigger dog, make sure that the launcher takes a tennis sized ball. A launcher for smaller dogs would have too small balls for a big dog and pose a choking hazard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/topdoghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/shutterstock_1445822843-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-4379 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/topdoghub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/shutterstock_1445822843-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"648\" height=\"432\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><b>Being Able To Adjust Distance<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dogs love to do the same thing over and over, but you do want to switch it up for them so that they have some variety and it keeps their interest. With a manual launcher, you have complete control over where and how far the ball goes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are considering an automatic launcher, choose one with various distances and one that allows you to select a random setting. The random setting will launch balls at different lengths during play and keep your dog on its toes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>In Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You love to <a href=\"https:\/\/topdoghub.com\/best-cameras-for-home\/\">see your dog<\/a> happy and playing outside.

However, they can sometimes overdo a good thing, so supervision is always the best option, and short periods of play several times a day are better than one long session. Always consult with your veterinarian to get advice on your pet&#8217;s activity.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Why do dogs love chasing balls?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While they can&#8217;t speak to tell us why they love chasing balls and tennis balls, in particular, any pet owner can see that most dogs love doing so, we can speculate on why, and it seems like they like chasing tennis balls because they fit easily in their mouths, they are easy to see, and they like to run. All of those factors make chasing tennis balls fun for your pet.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Which is best, an automatic or a manual dog ball launcher?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is definitely up to the pet owner. There are advantages to both types of ball launchers. Even if you teach your pet to load the launcher themselves, you should supervise them when the unit is in use. One of the main differences between the two is the price. Manual ball launchers are much less expensive than automatic launchers.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It seems like every dog on the face of the earth LOVES to play fetch, and so a dog ball launcher is a blessing to dogs and owners alike!\u00a0 Having a dog ball launcher makes it so easy to indulge your pet with their favorite activity.
