THE BEST HERDING BALL FOR DOGS & HORSES

This is a very common question, and usually, the ball and cover are the right size.

When you start blowing up the ball, it might look small and the cover might feel loose. That’s okay! The ball needs more air before it stretches the cover and fills it up properly.

Think of it like blowing up a balloon. Just because it looks round doesn’t mean it’s full. You need to keep blowing air in until it feels firm and hard with no loose wrinkles of the cover. Bigger balls take more air and might feel harder to pump, that’s normal. Just keep going but make sure not to over inflate! Stop when there is no more wrinkles!

The ball is made to be safe for your dog to push around and play with. When it’s fully pumped up, it will roll well and be lots of fun.

To make it easier, you can use an electric pump or go to a gas station to fill it faster. But be careful not to put too much air in about the pressure of 2 to 3 PSI is perfect.

Also, when you zip the cover, try zipping it halfway before the ball is all the way full, then finish zipping after you finish pumping. This helps the zipper stay strong.

If you still think the cover is too loose after pumping it fully, please send us a photo. We will happily help you check it.

Our herding balls for dogs are made to be strong, safe, and fun. With the right amount of air, your dog will have a great time!

The herding ball cover uses a special zipper with an auto-locking system to keep it secure during intense play. If the zipper won’t budge, don’t worry! It’s likely just in its locked position. Here's how to safely unlock and unzip it:

1. Locate the zipper head - it's the small metal piece at the end of the zipper track.

2. Look closely and you’ll see a small hole on the side of the zipper head. Inside is a tiny latch that keeps the zipper locked.

3. Use the zipper tool included in your set to press into this hole. - Can’t find the tool? A ballpoint pen tip works just as well.

4. Gently press down into the hole to engage the latch inside.

5. While keeping the latch pressed, slowly slide the zipper head straight across the zipper track to begin unzipping.

6. Do not force it. Avoid using pliers or other tools, they can damage the zipper. Go slow and gentle, and the mechanism will release smoothly.

Each herding ball and cover are carefully sized and color-coded for different dog breeds. If the cover still feels loose after fully inflating your herding ball for dogs, it might be the wrong size or not fully inflated yet. Continue to inflate firmly and check again. If it remains loose, send photos and your order info so we can assist.

Yes, using an electric air pump, air compressor, or gas station air pump is highly recommended to quickly and easily inflate your herding ball. Manual pumps may work but can be slower.

Overinflating your dog herding ball can cause damage. We recommend inflating to about 2 to 3 PSI. This pressure ensures the ball is firm enough to hold its shape and safe for your dog to play with.
