Abstract
The present invention relates to a toy ball. The toy ball has an exterior surface, an interior, a water chamber located in the ball interior, a water fill aperture that is located in the ball exterior surface and is in fluid communication with the water chamber, a first rope aperture located in the exterior surface, a second rope aperture located in the exterior surface, and a rope chamber extending from the first rope aperture through the ball interior and to the second rope aperture. A rope is placed in the rope chamber. The toy ball is particularly configured for use as a pet toy (e.g., dog toy). The water chamber allows the weight of the ball to be adjusted depending on the strength and weight of the pet.
