The Flying Animals are fetch toys with a built-in catapult. Hold the body, hook the head over a finger, stretch the elastic cord that joins the two, and let go. The animal takes off across the garden, the park or the beach, and your dog takes off after it. There's a squeaker inside for the catch, and the whole thing is made from the kind of Oxford fabric that wipes clean after a wet afternoon.
It's the toy for fetch-mad dogs and busy breeds like collies and spaniels, and for owners who'd rather not throw a soggy toy 200 times.
Why dogs love it
-
Slingshot launch – the stretchy cord does the throwing, so fetch goes further with less effort.
-
Squeaks on the catch – a squeaker inside rewards a good grab.
-
Swivel head – the head is joined to the body by the cord, so it twists and flops as it flies.
-
Tough fabric – high-density Oxford outer with stitched, bound edges all the way round. Wipe-clean, water- and dirt-resistant.
-
Fetch and tug – light and easy to carry. The Duck's braided cotton-rope tail is made for tug.
-
Easy to spot – neon and bright colours that show up on grass.

A quick word of honesty
It's a fetch and tug toy for playing together, not a chew toy. The fabric is tougher than plush, but there's a squeaker and soft filling inside, and a dog left to work on it will get there. The elastic cord is the clever bit and the vulnerable bit: keep it for launching, not for chewing. Play, then put it away.

Safety and care
Always supervise play. Not a chew toy: take it away if your dog starts working on the fabric or the cord, and replace it if the squeaker or filling is exposed. Launch it away from faces and never let the cord snap back towards your dog. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and air-dry.
