If your life is like mine, then you also have a high-energy dog running around your house. I have an extremely busy schedule, and it can be hard to fulfill my high-energy pup’s playtime needs when I’m home.

I love playing with my pet as much as the next person, but sometimes I just want to put my feet up! That’s where the BarxBuddy Busy Ball comes in to save the day. 

This ball is fully automatic and requires absolutely no human input at all. Simply charge it up, throw it down, and watch your dog have the time of its life! 

In this review, I’m going to go over everything that’s special about the BarxBuddy Busy Ball and why you should consider getting one for your high-energy doggo. 

Hands-Free

First of all, let’s cover the BarxBuddy Busy Ball’s bread and butter. This smart ball for dogs is completely hands-free. You don’t have to throw it; you don’t have to control it; you don’t have to do anything. 

You don’t even have to turn it on! The BarxBuddy Busy Ball has a sensor in it and will activate with a motion from your pet. It will light up and roll around in random directions while active, keeping your dog entertained for hours.

Better still, you don’t even have to turn the busy ball off. If it senses a lack of motion, it will shut itself off, saving its battery life. 

Durable 

The BarxBuddy Busy Ball can withstand playtime from even the ruffest of dogs. It is made with  TPU — thermoplastic polyurethane, which holds up extremely well over time and is drool-proof. 

This smart ball for dogs is also waterproof, which is fantastic because if your pet is as clumsy as mine, it may end up in the water bowl. 

Rechargeable

This smart ball for dogs by BarxBuddy comes with a rechargeable USB cord and is fully rechargeable. This means you won’t need to purchase any batteries for it. 

The charger plugs into the USB of any charging bricks you may have laying around or to your computer or laptop. As I mentioned before though, the ball turns on and off by itself, which means it saves quite a bit of battery life! 

So you will not have to worry about charging too often, but it will be very easy and convenient when you do. 

Infinite Fun

Now, let’s talk about what makes the busy ball so great, other than being hands-free. The busy ball will bounce and roll around semi-randomly. 

It will create and follow a unique pattern during playtime, keeping your pet happy and engaged. The BarxBuddy Busy Ball never repeats its pattern, which means every time your pet plays with it, they’ll get a brand new experience. 

I can say from experience that your pup will never, ever get bored of chasing the busy ball around. This smart ball is perfect for energetic dog breeds.

30 Day Guarantee

Let’s take a second to talk about the BarxBuddy 30 Day money-back guarantee. Most pet companies are not going to offer a return on a toy like this because they know pets are clumsy and like to break things. 

But BarxBuddy is so confident in their engineering that they’re not afraid to give you an entire month worth of proof of their product’s quality. My pet plays pretty rough, has a lot of energy, and really loves to drool, so I was excited to see this return policy. However, I never had to test it out because my ball still works like a charm!
