Say farewell to slobbery games of fetch. The brilliantly-simple design of Chuckit! means you'll never have to pick up a sodden tennis ball again. Perfect for ball junkies of all breeds and sizes, this nifty little toy is like an extension of your arm. You'll throw longer and faster and keep hands slime-free, all without wearing out your pitching arm. With practice, it's possible to fling a ball as far as 140 feet, tiring out the most fetch-happy retriever in a shorter period of time. Chuckit! is also great for owners with mobility issues, since there's no need to bend over and pick up balls. Simply place the claw over the ball and press down. The Chuckit! tool snaps around the ball and holds on. To get the most distance out of the tool, use an overhand throw and follow through. Use only standard-size tennis balls, and be careful not to throw directly at animals or people. This set comes complete with a ball to get you started. i--Mary Park/i

Love the chuck it October 10, 2008
My ball-crazy dogs love this product because it flings balls so much farther than can be hand-tossed! And I like it because it saves my arm from getting over-tired, and it's easy to use with either arm.
Great throw and fetch toy!! October 8, 2008
My dog loves to chase a tennis ball!! Since I "throw like a girl" I was never able to throw it very far (often straight into the ground!!) My son picked up our first Chuckit at a local store. What a difference! I can throw the ball really far and I don't have to touch a spitty ball, with my hand, to throw it again. I am very fortunate...I can bring my dog to work with me; so I had to purchase a second Chuckit for work. I couldn't find them in any stores and ordered it through Amazon. It arrived within the promised time frame and we (the dog and me) have been enjoying it every day since. I would highly recommend it to anyone who has a dog that loves to play catch. Again, don't forget the joy of not having to use your hand to pick up a spitty ball!!
Great! August 12, 2008
This is great for people who can't throw the ball that far. Nice handle with a good grip, the ball will go tons farther then just throwing it. Also it's great with picking up the ball, I mean who wants to bend over all the time to pick up the ball? My dog enjoys running farther and I enjoy using the launcher.
"Chuckit" has saved my dog from injuries by other dogs.... July 14, 2008
The "Chuckit" ball launcher has been a godsend and probably has saved my dog from injury on a number of occasions. Sounds like an odd testimony indeed, but I have a very sociable and trusting whippet and whippets are possibly one of the two fastest dogs on the planet. Before Jack was interested in chasing a ball, he would only want to entice dogs to chase him at the dog beach or dog park. Consequently, there have been dogs who became aggressive during the chase and have lain in wait for him to run by and have nipped and toppled him to get him under control. I realize this had to stop. So I bought a Chuckit and Jack was hooked immediately. Now he could care less about dogs chasing him - he is happy to greet them - but he does NOT want to be chased any longer. He is so addicted and hyperfocused on the ball. And IF a dog at the beach or park starts chasing him once I have "chucked" the ball, when the dog catches up with Jack, he just comes to a dead stop and will not let the dog chase him. Additionally, in two instances recently, I was able to use my chuck it to ward off dogs rushing towards us, off leash, with no owner in sight. They stayed clear of the crazy lady with the orange stick! So, it has been miraculous for us. Jack's brother is NOT interested in the ball and he has already had surgery for a serious dog attack - dogs chasing whippets - whippets with very thin skin and skin tears easily. I love my Chuckit launcher. But I ONLY buy the ULTRA balls which are orange rubber with a blue contrasting stripe because they bounce so nicely.
chuck-it April 5, 2008
My 6 month old Lab LOVES this toy. We get a lot of excercise with this. I recommend this for any dog that likes to run/retrieve.
