Whipper Snapper Dog Toy Review

The Whipper Snapper is a toy of two components, a rubber rope-like handle, and a ball. The ball is cradled in a cage on one end of the rope, and on the other end you’ll find a loop. The idea is simple enough, either use the rope to throw the Whipper Snapper more effectively for fetch, or use it to play tug of war with your dog! The included ball is squeaky, but if your dog isn’t a squeak fan, you can substitute it easily for a tennis ball.

TTPM Dogs Lexi and Xena tried out the Whipper Snapper, with mixed results. Lexi enjoyed swinging it back and forth to smack herself in the face. For the purposes of fetch however, she’s a traditional gal, who prefers a plain ball. Luckily, the ball is removable! Xena on the other hand loves to play tug. In this case, a bit too passionately; our Whipper Snapper snapped too early. Xena is a bigger dog, so it may be that the Whipper Snapper is a better fit for medium to smaller pups.
