What is a Jumbo Tennis Ball?

It's often lightweight, easy to grip, and great for indoor or outdoor play. Whether used for training, decoration, gifting, or playtime with your pup, the jumbo tennis ball is both fun and functional.

How It’s Different from a Standard Tennis Ball

Caring for Your Jumbo Tennis Ball

To extend its life and keep it looking great:

• Store indoors when not in use
  
• Keep away from sharp dog teeth if used for aggressive chewers
  
• Spot-clean with mild soap and water

If used outdoors, especially on wet grass or dirt, just wipe it down and let it dry naturally before storing.
