Two ways to play with the GoDogGo Fetch Machine

Hands-off timed fetch or hands-on remote-launched fetch — the automatic launcher supports both, depending on your dog’s training and your day.

Independent timed play

Choose a 4, 7, or 15 second interval. The machine releases the next ball on schedule so your dog can settle into a steady chase-and-return rhythm without you holding the remote.

Pet-parent-controlled play

Launch each ball on demand from up to 50 feet away with the included remote. Useful while your dog is still learning the routine, during shorter sessions, or when you want full control over pace.

Built for dogs that love to chase

Best fit for ball-driven dogs and pet parents who want a reliable way to keep daily fetch going.

High-energy dogs

Tailor-made for ball-obsessed labradoodles, retrievers, GSPs, and other dogs that need more activity than a short walk can give them.

Apartments and yards

Dial the launch range down for indoor play in a duplex or apartment, or take it out into the yard for full-distance fetch.

Up to 60 lb dogs

Suitable for many small-to-medium and medium-sized breeds when used with 2.5" tennis balls — the wide-mouth bucket makes return easier to learn.

Adjustable distance for any space

Tune the launcher to your space and your dog — distance, ball variety, and quick portability.

12–35 ft launch range

Multiple distance settings. Set it short for tight indoor space; open it up for a long backyard sprint.

Ball-tuned variability

Different ball sizes, weights, and textures change the launch distance — useful for adding natural variety to fetch sessions.

Indoor or outdoor

Lightweight at about 9 lb. Move it from the living room to the patio to the yard whenever the day calls for it.

Designed with safety in mind

Always supervise fetch play. The GoDogGo Fetch Machine is built around three layers of safer-by-design behavior.

Upward launch arc

The launch pattern directs each ball up and away from the front of the unit, keeping fetch on a predictable, safer path.

Ball-load sensor

A built-in sensor helps the unit power up only when a ball is properly loaded, so the launcher does not fire empty.

3-ft training zone

Train your dog to wait off to the side or at least 3 ft in front before each launch. Always supervise — this is dog gear, not a child’s toy.

Power it your way

Run it from the wall or from the battery — whichever fits the session.

AC adapter included

Plug in for longer sessions near an outlet. Great for indoor play and morning routines without worrying about charge level.

Rechargeable lithium

Take fetch into the yard cordless. A blinking green light means charging; steady green means fully charged.

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.

We had one of these 2 years ago and my dog loved it kept him going for a couple hours in and off I’d put it at the top of the hil so when it threw he had to run up a slight hill for more exercise. Then the started broke on it after a year because he played with it to much, the one bad thing is you can’t just buy pieces to fix this product you have to buy a whole new one. So I went to a cheaper brand worked for a week but still not as good as this product then it started making weird noises, so I caved and got another one of these. We now live in a duplex and the small backyard still work with this product! I just hope this started doesn’t die also because then that’s it for ball throwers :(

I can no longer throw balls for my best four legged friend due to genetic disease. This ball gun is the perfect solution! My 28 lb Frenchi absolutely loves playing ballgun in the house! He sits in front of it and "speaks" to me he wants to play ballgun. The smaller size balls are perfect. The pull strength needed to set the gun is minimal. The pull handle nice and robust. The variable strength of launch ratcheting system, is brilliant. The device is well made, appears durable, and my Otis loves it. I have to buy more balls as he poped the one it came with!

I purchased this very toy many years ago for my 3.5 lb yorkie and it quickly becam her favorite of all her favorite toys. But, since moving twice, I thought we would never see one again, but here it is, ALAS! Even though my dog is older, she still loves to fetch & returb & fetch again. We live in an apartment and when we don’t goout to the park foir space, I use it on the first notch, and so the distance can be adjusted to use even in a small alpartment. I also purchased a package of 4 extra ballsl The ones sold here are MINI, ie 1.75" and the size needed for the MINI . Kannon. And, I forgot to say it is my favorite toy, as well. It keeps her occupied, she loves chasing the ball & returning it to me to shoot again for her to chase and then she takes a nap in my arms exhausted from great play.

I have had one for my dogs, this is the third in 10 years. They love it and so do I. The only thing is the bands start to wear out. But the company had sent us some new ones. They are Really Great and saves your arm from throwing the ball.

Rachel Fox

We got this because of injuries/health issues that made it hard for us to throw balls any distance to keep our rescue GSP happy. She doesn’t do well with loud gun-like noises and some of the other products had comments that they were loud. This one is indeed quiet and doesn’t frighten her. She likes it a lot. It hits about 40 to 45ft. It’s easy to use and seems fairly well made. We’ve had it for just a month but so far we’ve had no problems with its operation. I’d recommend it based on our experience so far. Very happy that we’ve purchased it.
