Best For Best for small, active dogs that need a self-moving toy for independent play.

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.

Best For Best for tech-savvy owners and energetic dogs that love motion-chasing and remote-controlled play.

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.
