A classic retrieve dumbbell for gundog work, formal obedience and everyday fetch. It floats, which makes it far easier to mark and pick up in water than a ball, and the shape encourages a dog to carry it across the middle rather than crushing it. Important limitation: this is an interactive toy, not a chew. It is built to be thrown and carried, not to be left with a dog who will settle down and take it apart, so it comes away at the end of the session.
Three sizes: Small at 10cm, Medium at 14cm and Large at 19cm. Match the size to the dog's mouth rather than to their body weight — a dumbbell that is too small can be swallowed, one that is too large will be dropped. Pairs with a marker such as the Multi-Clicker and a whistle recall from the Training Whistle. See the full Coachi training range.

How to Use
- Pick the size your dog can hold across the middle of the mouth with the ends clear of the lips.
- Build the retrieve in stages: hold, take, carry a step, then throw — rewarding each stage before adding distance.
- Use it for interactive play only and put it away afterwards; it is not a chew toy.
- Check it for damage after each session and replace it if pieces are missing.
