I’ll add that traditional-sized dog soccer balls, which are around 8 inches, are best suited for medium to large breeds. Smaller dogs can have difficulty wrapping their jaws around the large ball size. If you want to play soccer with your pooch, then you need a dog-proof soccer ball. These hard-wearing balls are designed to stay strong, even when your dog bites down hard.

Now, I must stress that this recommendation is only suitable for dogs that don’t enjoy chewing and ripping the stuffing out of plush toys or aggressively shaking their toys. Take our Golden Retriever, for example. She was happiest just holding the soccer ball in her mouth and carrying it around the house. While the glow-in-the-dark version held up just fine during our testing, I want to point out that users found this model less durable than the bright orange version. Perhaps this is why the glow-in-the-dark version is considerably cheaper. Big, small, bouncy, squishy—balls are beneficial toys for kids. They can use them for open-ended playor directed games and sports, alone, with a buddy, or on a team. According to Heather Shafi, MD, FAAP, a pediatrician in New Jersey, playing with balls is good for hand-eye coordination, muscle development, and social skills. Moreover, kids will be working on fine motor skills, spatial awareness, problem-solving skills, and balance, too. Made from durable materials like rubber, these balls are puncture-resistant.

Not that this should be an issue. Like any other fetch toy, the Jolly Soccer Ball should be used as a fetch-and-play toy only under supervision – not given to your dog as a chew toy. We didn’t have any punctures during testing. However, based on my observation of how the dogs carried the larger ball, I have a suspicion that the larger size will break first.We found the best toy balls for a wide range of uses, ages, and categories by studying the design and features of more than 30 balls on the market. We also surveyed 875 parents about the toys their children play with, how they play with them, and why they love them. To further our research, we reviewed guidance from Nemours Children’s Health on toys for every age and how children of all ages play differently, along with guidance from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) on how to buy safe toys. Moreover, we reviewed a study on the efficiency of exploratory play for infants and its relation to longer-term cognitive development. If you do want to buy a traditional soccer ball, then I recommend choosing a size 3. This is the smallest regulation soccer ball and are generally used for children under the age of 8. At 24 inches in circumference, it’s is easier to grip than adult balls.
