Have a dog that loves to play with a Frisbee? Tired of replacing the frisbee every third day because your dog shreds it? Ruffwear has the solution for you. The Ruffwear Hover Craft Frisbee is one of the toughest dog frisbees that I’ve come across.
A few years back, Ruff Wear redesigned their Hover Craft Frisbee. It used to be more flexible, and was a floppier design. While that was great for compressing it, rolling it and tossing it in your back pocket, etc, it made the frisbee significantly less durable if you’ve got a dog that likes to chew on his toys while he fetches them. Baker, my black lab/border collie mix, is definitely one of those dogs. The newer Hover Craft Frisbee is super durable, and yet is still soft on dog’s teeth when they’re chewing it while bringing it back!
Key Features of the Ruff Wear Hover Craft
- Available in 2 sizes- small and large. The small one is great for tiny dogs, but I’d say stick with a large if your dog is over 25 lbs. The large is 9 inches in diameter.
- Both sizes come in BRIGHT colors (large in neon green and small in orange), so it’s pretty tough to lose if you’re throwing it into the woods.
- Core of the disc is made of molded foam, which helps it to maintain it’s shape, no matter how many days it sees in the field.
- Easy to hose off, which is great for drool removal after a long session of fetch!
- One thing to keep in mind- this frisbee is not intended to be a chew toy. If you let your pup loose with it all day, it will shred. However, as a frisbee, it’s very durable! Just be sure to get it back from your dog if he’s a chewer!
Overall, I’m impressed! Baker loves his Hover Craft!
