This is a great gun and my German Shepherd loves it. The big down side is there are no replacement rubber bands for it which is very disappointing. The last one I had for four years and it suddenly stopped, broke, came undone? I really don't know but it no longer worked. I checked only to learn there were no replacement parts for it. Too bad.All rubber bands wear out. How hard can it be to replace the rubber band?

We paid over $83.00 and it last less than 3 weeks before it broke after minimal ball chasing. We would have used it 4 or 5 times with our puppy. It had minimal use in our small back yard and the rubber band snapped, it was not overload, as I said it is a small backyard. I contacted Amazon and not heard anything back from them, disappointing is an understatement.

Our dog loves playing fetch. This was a very nice doggy play toy until it broke. its not the seller's fault. Out of curiosity I took it apart to see what broke and hoped it was something simple I could fix. Nope. I noticed that there are about 12 screws and bosses molded into the plastic. All the plastic bosses were the same size. All but 1 do nothing but hold the 2 tube halves together. That particular one plastic boss is the weak point. It gets all the stress of the trigger mechanism and force of the sling shot rubber band. If the manufacturer added thick support ribs at the base to strengthen this 1 boss to take the extra mechanical stressing this particular boss gets, the durability of this product would greatly improve. I do not know if other manufacturers of similar toys have such strengthening features in the places where the product needs it the most. I never did a tear down of those other products or have those other products to see what is inside theirs... could be better/could be worse. But maybe this review finds its way back the manufacturer to have them change their injection mold die in 1 spot.

Ich liebe dieses Produkt. Es ist praktisch, leicht zu bedienen und erfüllt seinen Zweck.Die Bälle fliegen richtig weit (20m ja das ist für mich eine Entfernung die ich mit der Hand nicht schaffe) allerdings funktioniert das nur mit den speziellen Bällen, die von der gleichen Firma fürs Wasser. Diese sind extrem leicht und fliegen dadurch weiter.Achtung: man sollte seine Finger immer von oben weg nehmen (was man im Normalfall sowieso macht) sonst schnallt der Auslöser zurück und man hat starke Schmerzen und für mehrere Monate keinen Fingernagel mehr.

This is a very FUN toy to play with your pup/dog. My 200 pound Rottweiler (yes, he's a freak, not fat, but a too-tall-Jones) loves it. He loves it when I shoot the tennis balls about straight up in the air and he watches it, like a hawk. He doesn't want to catch it on the way down, he waits for the bounce. Then he's got it like a hawk! :)We have about 2 dozen tennis balls that we play with at a time. It's not a very big area we play in, hence the straight up balls. BUT the other thing he loves is when I shoot them kinda straight to him but make sure they land about 5 feet in front of him. This makes the balls bounce. He likes the bounce and can catch those balls much quicker.I bought this as a back-up to the original one I bought. The original fell off a 6 foot ladder in a wind-storm (um, the ladder was leaning against the back of the house, and that's where we had left it), and part of the pull-back handle broke off. BUT it was definitely usable! And we used it constantly, still do.I was just worried that the original would break and we would have to wait till a replacement came.It's remarkable how long the rubber bands actually last in this. Kudos to the makers!!!!!!!!!!!!!This is a fun toy to play with your pups. VERY STURDY!!!!!

This Hyper Pet K-9 Cannon is basically a tennis ball gun. But don't let the simplicity fool you. It's very well made, and can lob any tennis ball across my nearly half acre yard. I have a Border Collie, and as you well know, they are working dogs and on the hyperactive side. This is his favorite toy. This one is actually a replacement for the original, which we bought over 3 years ago. It was accidently left out during a deep freeze and the band was compromised. Our fault, not the manufacturer. It's a great way to get your dog interested in fetching and keeping them well conditioned. It's a simple piece, and easy to use, even for kids. My dog loves this toy. We shoot it on the roof, in the air and across the fields, and he finds it every time. I would not recommend this for indoor play, as it is very powerful and could cause damage in the home. Overall I give this 5 Stars, but would give it more if available. It's that awesome!

I bought this for my very active AussieDoodle. I cannot throw the ball far enough to make him really run.I saw one being used for a similar dog. It was shooting the ball a good distance and the dog was getting to really run.When it arrived, I read the instructions. Tried it out in the small back yard and it was OK, not great. Took it to the dog park and was SO disappointed! After a few firings at the highest setting, the ball was landing about as far as I could throw it myself.The problem is most likely that the giant "rubber band" was either defective or not placed correctly.I returned the product for a refund. It wasn't worth the hassle to try another.Now I use a Chuck-It ball thrower. Advantage:no working parts, no rubber band

My dogs love it. I love it because I don't have to throw overhand over and over, which wears my shoulder out.I have both sizes, a full size for my mother's German Shepherd and a mini K9 Cannon for my 8 lb papillon. Both love the sound of the rubber band getting pulled back inside the cannon and sit right, away waiting for us to fire the ball. I purchased extra doggie tennis balls for my mom's dog - the kind that don't wear down their teeth, because she doesn't always retrieve what she chases. (A quick search on amazon will show you options. Regular tennis balls are coated with a substance that can wear down your dog's teeth enamel - so its best to choose these doggy-safe tennis balls, and they are not expensive.)That said, YES this thing operates on a giant rubberband - so it wont last forever. I haven't had to replace either yet and I got both of them around Thanksgiving 2015. They get used 3 - 5 days a week for 30 minutes or so.
