The EcoTug™ is a dumbbell — two paw-print tennis balls at each end, connected by a thick twisted cotton knot in the centre. That dumbbell shape is what makes it so versatile: the balls are easy to grab, carry, and fetch; the rope middle is perfect for tug-of-war and chewing; and as the cotton fibres work between teeth during play, they passively floss away plaque in a way a plain rubber toy simply can't. At 25cm long with 6.5cm balls, it fits comfortably in the mouth of small to medium dogs and gives larger breeds a satisfying carry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"margin: 0 0 28px 0;\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"background: #f0f3f7; border-radius: 10px; padding: 22px 24px; margin-bottom: 14px;\"\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700; color: #3a4a5c; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 1.5px; margin: 0 0 8px 0; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', sans-serif;\"\u003eThe dumbbell shape\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.7;\"\u003eTwo soft tennis balls weighted at each end give dogs multiple grip points — they can carry it by the middle, bite an end, or shake the whole thing. That versatility is what keeps it interesting after the novelty of a plain rope has worn off. The shape also makes it easy for owners to throw cleanly for fetch, with the balls providing natural aerodynamic weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"background: #f0f3f7; border-radius: 10px; padding: 22px 24px; margin-bottom: 14px;\"\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"font-size: 14px; font-weight: 700; color: #3a4a5c; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 1.5px; margin: 0 0 8px 0; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', sans-serif;\"\u003eNatural cotton \u0026amp; dental action\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.7;\"\u003eThe rope is 100% natural cotton — non-toxic, free from synthetic dyes, and safe if your dog ingests the odd fibre during play. As the cotton fibres push between teeth and along the gum line during chewing, they lift plaque and food debris in a way that mirrors the action of floss.
