This flexibility is intentional — as the ball compresses during chewing, the textured nubs make contact further along the gum line compared to rigid ball toys. The nub-covered surface creates a gentle abrasive effect against teeth and gum tissue throughout each session. The overall build is moderate duty, appropriate for medium dogs with light to moderate chewing intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTexture, Size, and Play Duration Guidance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe surface texture is soft and nubbed, providing tactile stimulation without excessive hardness. Sized for medium dog breeds, the ball is proportionate for comfortable gripping, carrying, and fetching.
