SportDOG Canvas Dummies - Hunting Dog Training Tool - Game Scent Absorber - Water-Ready Bumper - Durable Field Dummy - Weighted Toy - Puppy Size - 2.25" W X 8.5" L - Orange

UPDATE: I called the company because the dummies come with a 1-yr warranty. Their customer service was excellent. They said its unacceptable and unusual for their dummies to come apart that quickly. They sent two replacement dummies even though only 1 of the two I ordered here had ripped. In the future, I'd be more inclined to order directly from the company. Original review: The dummy arrived on Dec 29 and the seam split on Jan 7. We have a bird hunting dog, so we use the 2 dummies we purchased on a daily basis for training. We toss, he retrieves, and barring his learning curve of how to carry it properly, he never plays with it or chews on it. (He's 3 now, so he knows how to carry it properly with the occasional playful toss in the air when his puppyness bubbles up. He's quickly corrected and does it right.) He carries it to us, drops on command (never any tugging), and never has access to it unless he's training. Other dummies we've had from this company have lasted for years with that type of use. I've stitched it with high quality thread, but 10 days of use as it was intended before needing a repair is not acceptable.

Received it quickly and as advertised. Looks to be solid canvas construction that will hold up. Haven’t had a chance to use it but it looks like it will work perfectly as designed.

I have purchased these for almost 2 years. When one goes bad I just buy another. I have a 2-year-old energetic dog who loves to retrieve. He is a mixed breed with medium drive and he loves working with these. It is a good toss-and-retrieve toy but also the rope makes it a good tug-of-War toy for you and your dog. My only criticism is it does not hold well in water as long as I'd like. For that reason, we mostly play with this in the yard or at a park. It is bright and easy for him to find when training and I like that I can spray it with a scent for scent practice as well. We will continue to purchase as each one gets worn down too much.

Great for starting your dogs on retrieving at any age. If you have more than one dog, though, you might want to get more than one decoy or they will fight over it when they realize they can get a treat upon retrieval. Here I’m working two dogs at the same time to make sure they each realize there’s a treat at the end of bringing it back to me not just coming back to me.

heavy canvas easy to see the dog loves this

Terrible product. Lightest canvas I've ever seen. Dogs like to carry on walks, fell apart in first minute.

Perfect for my pup lab - just the right size

Lasted under 2 weeks. 20 pound GSP Puppy destroyed it.

Résistant et a un bon poids pour pouvoir le lancer loin.

Very good small dog/puppy training retrieve article.

There are some reviews stating they were chewed apart. Bumpers are for supervised training. They are not chew toys. If used for their proper purpose they will last for decades.

The product is good, the name needs a little work. It is not Jumbo it is a small size, if I would have checked the specs I would have known that. It works perfectly for my 2 dogs (65 & 70 lbs). The price was very reasonable.

Lab loves it she's onto the bogger dummies now she is a teenager
