I have a 10 month old, ball obsessed labradoodle. I have mobility issues, and it’s hard for me to throw the ball very far, so I bought this machine. I will say, the first one was defective and would not charge. Amazon to the rescue, and I had a new one the next day! Fantastic customer service. The replacement works like a charm. I really like you can adjust the distance, as well as the number of seconds for it to launch. It came with three different types of balls, and we found the rubber one launched much further than the standard tennis balls, so I will buy more of those. It only took two days for my doodle to learn to put the ball into the machine. I think she learned just by watching me. I taught her to stand to the side and "wait," as you can see from the picture, so she didn’t get hit by the ball. I do like that the ball launches high and not straight out, so it seems safer. If you have a ball obsessed dog, this is the machine for you.
