Hands-off fetch sessions for small and medium dogs are the appeal, with adjustable throw distance and six balls included, though water play is off the table given its low resistance rating.

Overview
Six 2.3-inch ETPU balls and three adjustable throw distances between 20 and 45 feet make up this automatic launcher, built for small and medium dogs playing indoors or outdoors.
Automatic launchers let a dog fetch on its own once it learns to load the chute, which suits owners who can't throw repeatedly or dogs that fetch obsessively. The 20 to 45 foot adjustable range covers both a living room and a yard, and the six included balls mean play doesn't stop to search for one lost ball.
- 3 adjustable distances, 20-45 feet
- 6 included 2.3 inch ETPU balls
- Indoor and outdoor use
- Built for small and medium dogs
Who it's for
Small and medium dogs that fetch enough to tire an owner's arm are the target here, playing indoors or outside. It is not water resistant, so it isn't the choice for wet yards, rain or pool-adjacent play.

Performance notes
The launcher offers three distance settings across a 20 to 45 foot range, letting owners tune throw distance to available space, and ships with six lightweight ETPU balls so a dog can keep fetching without the owner refilling constantly. It carries no water resistance rating, so it's built for dry conditions.
