Something similar to Nina Ottosons toy~

I just ordered a tetherball set for Beckon's birthday. I'd rather they exercise than eat!

 

I read that Shelties -- some, at least - just adore batting the tetherball around. The one I read about loved it so much, the owners had to put it away, or he'd totally wear himself to a frazzle. We've been talking about this for a couple of years -- and I decided now is the time!

 

That sounds like a fun game. I can see Miss Diva and her partners in crime Grizz and Pike having a blast with that.

 

KONG now makes a similar toy as well. It's called the KONG Wobbler, you can see it in action here: http://www.kongcompany.com/kongwobblervideo.html

 

I didn't read the whole thread so I'm not sure if someone mentioned this already but unfortunately that is a rippoff of a newer Nina Ottoson toy. She's thinking of going to court but because she's got such a small company she's not sure if its going to do any good, because Kong stole that idea as well. It's blatant patent infringement on their part. The distributor for her toys in the US is right here in town and I was talking to them about it. They are trying to get her to at least sue kong in the US.
