Tug Ball

Twist-Off Tug Ball™ – Dual-Mode Fetch & Tug Toy With Hidden Pull Strap – Available For Licensing

 

A Smarter, More Engaging Dog Toy — Fetch + Tug in One Design

The Twist-Off Tug Ball™ is a patent-pending dog toy that transforms playtime with a simple twist. At first glance, it’s a durable fetch ball. But give it a turn, and the ball opens to reveal a hidden, built-in tug strap—turning the same toy into a tug-of-war game instantly.


This dual-mode design keeps dogs engaged longer, reduces boredom, and eliminates the need to carry multiple toys for different activities.


Why It Works

Dogs naturally love:

  • Chasing & retrieving (ball mode)

  • Pulling & resisting (tug mode)

The Twist-Off Tug Ball™ combines both behaviors in a single, compact toy.

It encourages interactive play, strengthens bonding, and provides healthy physical and mental stimulation.
