How To Get The MostOut Of Your Ruckus™
How To Get The MostOut Of Your Ruckus™
Size Up When In Doubt
The ball must be too big for your dog to pick up in their mouth. That's what triggers the push-and-herd instinct instead of the grab-and-chew one. If your dog is between sizes, always go larger.
Use It As A Herding Ball, Not A Chew Toy
The Ruckus™ is designed to be pushed, chased, and nudged — not carried around or gnawed on. If you catch your dog sitting down to chew it, pick it up and redirect. It's a workout tool, not a teething ring.
Bring It Inside After Play
Store the ball indoors when not in use. Extended sun exposure fades the fabric, and leaving it out overnight invites unsupervised chewing, squirrel visits, and temperature swings that affect air pressure.
Keep It Away From Sharp Surfaces
Use the ball on grass, dirt, or turf — not concrete, gravel, or decks with exposed screws. Also check your yard for sticks and thorns before play.
