It was disappointing that all Official-Licensed NFL football toys were not built to last. Personally, I would have loved a dog football toy with my favorite NFL team’s logo on the side (Go Patriots!). But they were not built with dog play in mind. All football toys, even those on ropes, showed excessive wear through our play sessions. If you are buying these for your display cabinet, then go for it. But as far as dog play is concerned, there are much better football toys available. Although it pains my red-blooded, NFL-loving, ‘Murican heart to say it, soccer is the world’s most popular sport. So, perhaps it isn’t surprising that many of our pups love to play with soccer balls. Nerf’s newer model, the Soccer Crunch Ball got rid of the squeaker altogether. Instead, it has a material that needs to be compressed in the right way to make a crinkly sound. In our tests, it didn’t always work. Our dogs preferred the older squeaky version. However, in the case of aggressive grippers and chewers, the fleece material is subject to tear easily which is why rubber footballs are the best puncture proof option. Grip & Design

Does your dog love soccer and things that squeak? Nerf combined the two into a heavy-duty toy that kept our dogs entertained for hours – wagging their tails excitedly every time they made it squeak. As long as you remember that they’re only a temporary fix, tyre welds can be an effective way to safely carry on driving to a point where you can get a tyre repaired. No matter what type of toy your dog likes to play with and gnaw on, you’ll want to be sure she remains safe while doing so. Oh, and here is a clever idea if your dog is a soft chewer. Push a dog treat, like a Dentastix or Milk-Bone inside the football – you now have an entry-level puzzle feeder toy. The first thing to do, is to find the puncture - sometimes there'll be a hole visible, sometimes there won't.

With an attractive color and ergonomic shape, this squeaky Nerf Dog Durable Squeaker Football toy is the perfect choice for training and playing with your pet. These are compact, bouncy, and are curated specifically to suit your pet. Dogs play football with their paws and their mouth. Hence they need a ball that looks like an NFL ball, slightly tapered in shape, tough and easy to grip. However, with the help of a pre-puncture tyre sealant, you can get your vehicle to a point of safety where you can get the puncture repaired. While the glow-in-the-dark version held up just fine during our testing, I want to point out that users found this model less durable than the bright orange version. Perhaps this is why the glow-in-the-dark version is considerably cheaper.

This will plug the hole and allow you to reinflate the tyre, before driving to a location to get the puncture repaired.It can be hard to tell whether a given toy will hold up to your dog’s teeth, and you’ll never be certain until you toss her the ball and see how it goes.

The ball is extremely light in weight and is made of durable quality rubber which does not destroy easily. The ball is water and dust resistant. The size and the diameter of the football are such that it is suitable for medium to large-sized breeds. Okay, so if you are looking for a football that you can throw the farthest distance, the Hol-ee football will leave you wanting more – the holes prevent you from throwing it as far. The dog footballs need to be durable as they would undergo extreme wear and tear due to constant gripping, throwing, fetching, and involves a lot of rough use.

The dark and bright color of the ball increases visibility so no matter how far you toss it, your pet can easily spot it. Even with hundreds of punctures, it still kept its shape. No deflating or popping here! This is as close as you will get to an indestructible soccer ball. We didn’t have any punctures during testing. However, based on my observation of how the dogs carried the larger ball, I have a suspicion that the larger size will break first. You see, even the small size might be too large for your dog to wrap his jaws around. But that won’t stop your pup from trying… No! While dog footballs are made of durable rubber material which is chew proof and tear-resistant, it is to be kept in mind that they would not sustain aggressive chewing for a long time.

Gnawsome made a couple of pretty cool footballs. The Gnawsome Squeaker was covered in spikes, which our testers loved to chew on. Of the two, this was the superior football. The Squeak and Light also had an internal LED light that lit up on impact. At 4½-inches wide, neither of these footballs was very good for throwing.

A soccer ball is a dog toy that is best used under supervision. They are designed to be chased and carried – not chewed on. The Nerf footballs have been tested for durability and provide your dog with hours of fun. It also makes a squeaky noise each time your dog chews onto the ball making it more appealing and fun to play with. KONG toys are known for their durability and quality and hence the KONG Ballistic Football Dog Toy is no exception. The ball also has a glow version available that allows your dog to spot the ball in the dark or around bushes. All you have to do is charge the ball under light for 10 minutes and it allows you to have 30 minutes of fun and play.
