Is this a homemade toy?

In any case, thanks for posting it here.

It's not homemade.



Here's the link: https://godoggoinc.com/fetchmachine.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwwdTbBRAIEiwAYQf_E8-4AINmNyJyued66xOsW_K1VVdKSLJckl6a120BjOwf_70hDfHo7RoC4NsQAvD_BwE

BTW, it's not cheap, but it comes with a variety of settings for ball size, distance thrown and so forth.

I think Kaspar might like it. He is now almost five months old and very energetic. He likes to fetch and I can't be with him all the time.

who would stand at the top of the basement steps (basement door open), would shove her ball down the steps so it rolled into the basement, then she would run down the steps to find it and bring it back up to the top of the steps again. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. It was hilarious to watch as she entertained her own damn self!

Rex the Wonder Dog would fetch until our arms wore out. He never tired of it but even when we had the time, our arms couldn't last long enough.

On the other hand, our other dog, Dan, though fetch was for suckers. He fetched a stick exactly one. My husband threw it, Dan brought it back, my husband threw it again. Dan sat down and stared at my husband like, "WTF? I just brought you the damned stick and fuck if I will go get it again. Get it yourself, you fool." He'd sit and watch Rex fetch and laugh at Rex for being so stupid.
