Floating dog toys

What floating dog toys do your labs have?

Mine have had around 5 air Kongs in the last year, but they regularly lose them when out and about.. Also Chief lost direction when retrieving one in a rather large lake a while ago, so I've been wanting something that's a little more easily visible. They're happy to fetch tennis balls too, but seem to find it easier to hold the stick like toys..

Any suggestions?

Just a few balls and dummies really, we're stingy and don't buy many toys for our dogs I'm afraid Embarassed

Kong wubbas float and they are easy to see. Also Kong fetch sticks are quite easy for the dog to see

we have that stick too Georgia and it sunk on it's first use. I was so peeved.

We use a dog o saur frisbee which Basil loves and the cheap fabric stuffed cloating rings too.

We can go in the water with B though so we don't really lose toys - OH is pretty good at fetch if basils had enough Laughing

The wubbas float? Duh!! Mine have had these for the last year, but we don't really take them out on walks Embarassed

I shall give that a try!!

Where do you swim with Basil, Sarah? The way my three dive into the water I don't much fancy the idea of being anywhere near them!! Laughing

the sea or a pool here - it's 30c though.

The wubbas float, but Kong do a special water wubba made of wetsuit material which is even better than the normal cord material wubba Very Happy
