Dogs can learn the placement of the ball in the hopper very quickly and that adds stimulation to the exercise. The electro mechanical sound as the device prepares to launch builds tension amongst the players, that’s you and the dog. In short, these are great toys. Of course, you could just get a ball checker stick for a few bucks and interact with your puppy a little more. I did both.
The #1 thing for me is that this one doesnt use wheels or rubber devices to launch the balls. With the wheels, when the balls get slobbery or wet, it basically no longer is able to launch the balls anymore. This one doesnt use any type of wheel or rubber device to launch the balls
did the company send you all the extra products because you reviewed the product or do they send them to all customers? Product's always sold out. I've been wanting to buy this for awhile now.
Hello, I know this is pretty old but fingers crossed you'll see my comment :) Can you use this fully manually too? As in, can it be set so that it'll only launch balls when you press the remote button, and not at various intervals?
I never saw him put a ball back into the bucket. I thought that was the whole point of this thing, to play solo fetch. I don't think my dog would figure that part out, he'd just drop the ball on the ground and look around.
This video was literally shot with this dog the first time using it. I do think after some time depending on the dog you could train them to put the ball back in to launch it. I’ve seen some other videos that depict just that.
InsomniacReviews I’m sure Theo could figure it out. : ) I’ve seen some of these that appear to give the dog a treat when they put the ball in, but I’m guessing this one doesn’t do that.
once my dog gets a ball in his mouth, its covered in his saliva, and would pick up grass on the field, if the ball is dirty like that, does this still work?
I have tried the IfetchToo. It kept hanging up and did not launch at the distances It claimed. Does the Godoggo hang up with slobbery balls or grass getting in it? We have tried two different brands, same problems. Haven't tried this yet. Why no rechargeable battery?
Never once do we see the dog actually drop the ball in the bucket. If we have to load the bucket every time, what's the point? We can save the $150, get off our lazy asses, and throw the damn ball ourselves!
This was the dog's absolute first time seeing or using this product so it took some time but he brings it back and drops the ball in the bucket every time. Alot of other great reviews showing the same. Didn't take very long for the dog to get the hang of it and you're welcome to do whatever you like with you $150.00. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
niceneezy You must not have experience with dogs that have extremely high exercise needs. It doesn't matter how many times I throw a ball, my dog never gets tired. I'm not saying that a toy should replace human/dog interactions but it's a nice tool for those of us with really busy dogs!

I loved the tune you used. I liked review and think my golden will get this for his birthday!
Thank you and I hope you and your dog enjoy it!
Nice, but the price too high for me ~
Happy doggie!!!
Great product. Thanks for showing it..
Agreed and you're welcome! Thanks for watching.
Thank you for posting, I am going to get one for my dogs
need to see the dog place the ball in the bucket, that is half the fun.
Dogs first time using for video but I agree

The company sent me everything to review and its not what every customer gets. Hope you get yours soon!
I think your dog will thank you for it :)
I have read this thing is loud when it shoots the ball out. Is that true? Every video I have seen is a video with music in the back ground.
Negative on being loud at all. I would compared the brief sound to an electric can opener for a few seconds when the ball is launched.
You are the greatest! Thank you so much for answering. I am about to get one of these. And MAYBE just maybe - I will let Cricket play with it too. :)
+L.A DiNiro You are very welcome and I hope you and your dog enjoy the launcher!
You didn't show the most important part of this toy... the dog putting the ball back in the bucket.
This was the dog in the videos first time so we were learning. Agree best part is when dog returns the ball for the next launch!
your dog is so cute...may I ask what breed and where you got him/her? TIA
Says outdoor but wonder if it’s fine to use for a long hallway indoors.
I think you’d be just fine w it indoors. I’ve seen videos online w indoor use
I thought that ant at 3:08 was crawling on my screen.
Hallo! Perfect video! We have to do also some video for customer in Europe :-)
Glad you liked the video!
Are you involved w the Lishinu? If so, I'd love to review that!
Where did you get one for $144.99? Here in the US, there $174..99

Superstitious Pyalicious hi! Yes you can use with just the remote to launch the balls!
Yeah, he said it in the video…
Planning on using this at a Tennis Court…
Anyone tried it?
If so, any Pros and Cons?
I was thinking about getting one for pickleball...BUT when I read the reviews on other websites I am hesitant....

niajef you’ll be fine. This dog had the same issue w slobber. Balls had no issue being launched dirty or wet from dog.
cool, thanks! now i just gotta decide between this and petsafe, do u have any experience with that brand?
Sorry no exp with PetsSafe but would recommend this brand based on my testing and use.
i see, ok, thank you!
I really want one. Now I just need a dog.
Actual dog recommended but not required :)
Would this be able to launch a pickleball (also known as a wiffle ball)?
It would depend on its size vs a tennis ball.

Laura Shepherd no hang ups or issues with distance from my review or continued use.
