who makes this ball? found!

// 2009.11.04

For years now, folks have been asking me where I get these fabulous balls with the diamond shapes for Merry. And I've always had to apologise and say that I bought them all at local pet stores and, when asked, those stores had no idea who made them because they didn't carry them any more. Sigh.

Well, good news! My local pet store just started carrying them and I picked up a fab new one in gorgeous orange, which means I also got the scoop on who makes it.

The balls are called Grubber balls and they're manufactured by a Canadian company, Burgham. Here's the link to their web site and here's a link to their current dog catalogue which lists the Grubber ball. Sooo... bug your local (or online) retailer to pick some up so you, too, can enjoy the Grubber ball (in 3 different sizes) for your wee one.

One year ago: vote, get a kiss for free
Four years ago: stylin in pleather
Five years ago: please, mom, may I have another?

My puggy won't play with his! Even when I put a squeeky toy inside, he rolled it around once or twice then lost complete interest in it! Well, I think they're cool whether he does or not. ;)

The company should rename the ball, "Merry's Ball"!
Hugs and Kisses little one with ball in mouth.

They sell red ones at Target, too. Pretty cool.

Hi Angie and Merry,
Did my parcel for Merry ever make from cold and rainy England? As there might be something in there she likes:) :)

I bought one for my guys a while bakc and they have no interest in it. Until I put one of their mini tennis balls in it. Gus loved it! Then he got the ball out. :)

My pugs have a red one , they don't love it as much as merry loves hers. They love these ever lasting chew bones , they are hard plastic and they love them alot.
