The build
Designed around what breaks.
We read the complaints about other herding balls: worn teeth, punctures, cracked shells, plugs that get chewed out. Then we designed them out.
- Sized to push, not grabEach size is scaled so your dog herds it instead of carrying it off to chew.
- Two-layer wallA solid outer skin fused to a foamed inner layer. Tough outside, a little give under teeth.
- Thicker, sealed shellOne rotomoulded piece. No seams, no port, no plug.
- Hollow coreLight enough to push, and it floats.
Built to take it:
- Impact-tough, even below freezing
- Resists punctures & gouges
- UV-stabilised: won't go brittle
- Colour moulded through
- BPA-free & non-toxic

FAQ
Questions.
What is a herding ball?
A large, tough ball made for herding breeds to push, chase and steer with their nose and shoulders, the way they'd move livestock. It's too big to pick up, so instead of fetching and chewing, your dog gets to do what it was bred for: gather and drive.
When will my ball ship?
Orders ship early 2027. We'll email you tracking as soon as yours is on its way.
Can I cancel my order?
Yes. Cancel any time before your order ships and you get a full refund.
Which size should I get?
Go by your dog. Small for puppies and smaller herders, medium for border collies and Aussies, large for big herders like German Shepherds. Between sizes? Go up.
Is it a chew toy?
No. Outrun balls are made for pushing and herding. Always supervise play, and replace the ball if it's cracked or damaged.
