Tuggo Water Weight Tug Toy for Dogs

by

Like most dogs, Louie loves to play ball. The problem is that he was almost a year old when we adopted him and he never knew how to play. I think he was kenneled for most of his young life since he did not know what a toy was, what a treat or dog chew was and especially, what a ball was. If we threw a ball at him, he would stand there and let it hit him. Over the years, he has gotten somewhat better at playing ball… well, he would rather eat them… and he definitely does not like to bring them back to you! He would rather run and play keep away. So when I saw a cool new toy for dogs has hit the market, I knew this was a great one for Lou!
Tuggo Water Weight Tug Toy for Dogs
The Tuggo™ is a patented, water-weighted tug dog toy. The brand was soft-launched at Global Pet Expo 2014 and received critical acclaim by winning a place in the much coveted Becker’s Best New Pet Products. The Tuggo is available in two sizes (10’ and 7’ diameter) and three colors (red, blue and green). This one-of-a-kind toy is the perfect solution for providing dogs with exercise, entertainment and mental stimulation.

The Tuggo Dog Toy is great for a dog like Louie who loves to chew on the balls instead of play like he should. As a Pitbull, these oversize balls are perfect for actually playing since he cannot get his mouth around them. With the attached rope, this toy becomes not only a tug toy but also a toy that he can push around and get some great exercise. If you want to add some weight to it, you simply fill the ball with some water or sand and the dog gets a good workout.

We love to take Louie out to the fields so he can run and these balls are fun for him to drag and push around with him. If I still had my horses, these would be perfect too! They love to play with toys and the big one would be fun to add to their stall!

If your dog loves to play but likes to chew the ball more, you have to check out the Tuggo. It is fun, engaging and will give your pet some exercise too. I love that this is a USA company for trusted products. Tuggo is headquartered in Hendersonville, TN. YAY!

    You can add water to the Tuggo, when it’s full it weighs 20lbs. This is a great idea for my only dog, he loves to play tug of war but only gets to when he visits my parents dogs.

  92. Melissa Shirley says

    I learned that you can fill the ball with water and if you fill it full it will be up to 20 pounds and this makes it so the dog can tug on the rope that is attached.

    You can add up to 20lbs of weight but you get to customize if you want less just add less water or sand.

  125. Maggie Currier says

    I learned that there are a variety of sizes of the tuggo which is great because my puppy is pretty small for now.. but wont be in a bit!

  126. heather says

    I went to the sponsor’s site and I learned they are located in Hendersonville, TN US. Also learned that they are going to have smaller and larger balls in the future and that is great news for us as we have little dogs who would freak out over this one.

  127. Shelley Joy P says

    I learned that this toy was originally designed for medium to large dogs, but smaller dogs, and even puppies really enjoy the toy without any water being added.
