Toy Buddies Exerciser Mini Tennis Ball

BEWARE!

I bought Toy buddies Tennis Balls at Petco for my toy Yorkshire Terrier, Bella. I became alarmed awhile later when I noticed that she ripped up the ball at the seams in a very short time period. Also, I noticed an odor right away. It smelled of petroleum, like oil or gasoline. It was very strong. There was also some black rubberlike substance in the middle of the ball that came apart in bits and pieces, which were all over her mouth.

The packaging says they are made using non toxic materials. That truly was not my experience. These sure smell toxic to me. I would advise consumers to be cautious about giving this to their beloved pets. Especially small dogs. These are made in China and may not meet the same "non toxic" criteria as one should expect.
