Cheerble Wicked Ball Air – Motion-Active Ball for Medium/Large Dogs vs Wickedbone SmartBone Interactive App-Controlled Bone
Cheerble Wicked Ball Air – Motion-Active Ball for Medium/Large Dogs
by Cheerble
The Wicked Ball Air is a larger automatic motion toy designed for medium and large dogs that enjoy chasing moving objects. It rolls, bounces, and rotates on its own using three play modes—normal, gentle, and passive—and is built with a thicker shell than the smaller SE version. The toy is water-resistant, somewhat quieter than many electronic balls, and supports replaceable shell options for extended use. It is intended to encourage independent activity but is still not suitable for aggressive chewers.
Wickedbone SmartBone Interactive App-Controlled Bone
by Wickedbone
The Wickedbone SmartBone is a bone-shaped smart toy that combines automatic behavior-responsive play with app-controlled movement. It can chase, tease, and avoid a dog on its own, or be driven manually to roll, spin, and flip through a smartphone app. The toy is USB rechargeable and built with an FDA food-grade polycarbonate body, rubber tires, and detachable end caps for easier maintenance. It is best suited for dogs that enjoy chasing motion rather than heavy chewing.
