5.0 out of 5 stars
Lots of fun!,

This review is from: Chuckit! The Whistler Ball Medium 2.5-inch, 2 pack (Misc.)
These whistler balls are a lot of fun. They are lighter weight than the orange and blue rubber balls and they make a slight whistle noise as they fly. Its not an obnoxious high pitched whistle like I thought it might be, but more of a whooshing whistle. It's quiet enough to not drive the neighbors nuts, but loud enough the dogs can hear and track the ball's flight easier. They're durable and I throw them in the dishwasher to get the slobber off. They also fit in the normal sized Chuckit thrower.

Kelsy loves these balls, but they don't float.,
By
This review is from: Chuckit! The Whistler Ball Medium 2.5-inch, 2 pack (Misc.)
Kelsy is a connoisseur of fetching balls. She used to use ordinary tennis balls, but she has preferred the orange Chuckit balls every since we first found out about them. Kelsy will fetch until she collapses, and then she likes to chew on the orange balls, almost like a mediation. She likes the blue whistling balls almost as well. I thought I would try them because she doesn't always watch where the ball is going, and I thought the whistling would help her keep track. This is true most of the time. You do have to throw it fairly hard to make it whistle, and if you are in a confined space, you can't always throw it hard enough.The one big drawback is that these balls don't float. Kelsy loves to fetch a ball in Lake Washington, and she will swim for hours fetching the orange balls. Luckily, I didn't throw the blue ball very far the first time, because it sank right to the bottom. Kelsy was able to find it. We had to limit our lakeside fetching to the shallow water today, which wasn't as much fun for either of us. These whistling balls are fun, and a nice change of pace, but Kelsy the connoisseur doesn't like them as well as the orange Chuckit balls. I hope I never find out, but it seems like the hole through the middle of the ball could save a dog's life if she accidentally swallowed one. Although it is very rare, some dogs have died from getting tennis balls lodged in their throats. The design of this ball could be a lifesaver. Really, though, your dog shouldn't be playing with this ball, or any ball, if you aren't supervising.

Not worth the extra money,

The whistle is not very loud even with a hard throw, so I don't think it is worth the extra cost over the regular Chuckit rubber balls. It does bounce high, which my dog loves, but the cheaper ones do that also.
