Sweetie ball, orange

 

The Sweetie ball is a real treat for dogs: the heady scent of genuine leather and wool combined with the treat pocket inside makes this a highly enticing reward. The Sweeties are handmade in Finland using genuine leather recovered from a local furniture factory and lined with real sheep’s wool. The smell of the genuine materials is tempting to dogs. 

 

The Sweetie is perfect for food-driven dogs who also like to play and chase their reward. The leather lends a nice weight to the ball, making it easy to throw it where you want it, using the handle.

 

The Sweetie opens up, revealing a pocket for treats in the middle. The inside lining is polyester and easy to wipe clean. The ball has a Velcro fastening: the more tightly you fasten it, the more your dog will have to work to open the Sweetie and get the treats out – but also the more firmly the pocket will stay closed when you throw it or your dog plays with it. The protective binding on the edges of the ball is made of soft polyester to ensure a nice mouth feel.

 

 

Material

 

The genuine leather used in Sweetie toys is leftover scraps from a Finnish furniture factory, Pohjanmaan Kaluste, which we then give new life as dog toys. Nothing is wasted: the toys are designed to make the best possible use of the leftover leather, and the remaining scraps are used inside many of the toys as stuffing. All the leather that we use is EU REACH certified, which means that the leather is toxin-free and that no hazardous substances have been used in processing it.

 

Sweetie balls are 100% designed and handmade in Finland using genuine heavy-duty leather.

 

Properties and use 

 

Because each toy is made by hand, the amount of filling and thus also the weight of toys may vary slightly. Never leave your dog unattended with a toy. Genuine leather and sheep’s wool are materials that can tempt dogs to start ripping a toy apart and swallowing the pieces, which should be avoided. This toy is intended only for playing together with your dog. Most dogs love playing with these genuine leather toys.

 

Because the toys are made of genuine leather, they should be used and treated as such. We do not recommend getting the toy wet, for example, or playing with it in freezing temperatures because wet leather hardens, and that can decrease the toy’s durability and shorten its lifespan. As a natural material, leather will best maintain its durability and softness when it is kept dry. So although this toy may not be the best reward in very wet training conditions, your dog will probably think it’s all the more special when you do use it.

 

Please also note that if a wool-stuffed toy becomes wet, it may smell more strongly of wool.

 

For the best playing experience, please choose the right-sized toy for your dog. See the list below for examples.
