Wicked Ball SE Smart Interactive Ball vs Starmark Treat Dispensing Bob-a-Lot Dog Toy (Large)
Wicked Ball SE Smart Interactive Ball
by Cheerble
The Wicked Ball SE is a smart automated ball designed for small-breed dogs. It uses LED lights and three play modes—normal, gentle, and passive—to roll, bounce, or shake in response to movement. After about 10 minutes of play, it enters a roughly 30-minute sleep mode before reactivating. It is made from natural rubber and TPU, includes obstacle avoidance technology, and has an IP65 water-resistant design for indoor or outdoor use.
Starmark Treat Dispensing Bob-a-Lot Dog Toy (Large)
by Starmark
This wobbling dual-chamber treat dispenser uses a weighted anti-slip base so it bobs and tips as dogs nose or paw at it. Adjustable openings on the top and bottom let owners control how quickly kibble or treats are released, making it useful for both play and meal dispensing.
