Fetch, Chew, and Reward — A Ball Built for Small to Medium Dogs
The KONG Rerun Whoosh Ball is a multi-purpose dog toy designed for small to medium dogs that thrive on fetch, chewing, and treat-based engagement. Its round shape delivers an erratic, unpredictable bounce that keeps dogs alert and active during retrieval play, while a unique whooshing sound triggers natural prey instincts mid-flight. Special nubs along the surface provide passive dental support during chewing, and a built-in treat compartment rewards curious, food-motivated dogs. Made with 51% recycled material, it brings together active play and responsible manufacturing in one compact toy.

Material and Construction
The KONG Rerun Whoosh Ball is constructed from a recycled rubber compound — 51% recycled content — built to KONG's durability standards for moderate-duty use. The nubbed surface is molded into the ball's exterior, providing chewing texture and passive dental engagement without separate attachments. The treat compartment is integrated into the ball's structure and is compatible with small treats and training rewards. This toy is rated for moderate chewers and is not designed for aggressive power chewing.
Texture, Size, and Play Duration Guidance
The ball has a firm yet slightly flexible feel, with a nubbed exterior that adds grip and chewing texture. The small/medium size is suited for dogs up to approximately 35 lbs and is not recommended for large or giant breeds. During fetch, the erratic bounce and whooshing sound tend to produce high-energy, shorter play bursts. During solo treat-seeking or chewing, engagement duration is typically moderate to extended depending on the dog's food motivation and chew style.
Play Style and Functional Use
As a fetch toy, the KONG Rerun Whoosh Ball's round shape produces an unpredictable bounce pattern that differs from standard balls, keeping dogs engaged through varied retrieval angles. The whooshing sound adds an auditory stimulus during flight that heightens chase drive. As a chew toy, the nubbed surface provides texture and passive dental support. The treat compartment introduces a light puzzle element — dogs must interact with the ball to access rewards, encouraging movement and problem-solving during solo play.
Safety, Usage, and Care Guidance
Moderate supervision is recommended, particularly during fetch sessions and initial use. Select the correct size — the small/medium ball is not appropriate for large dogs, as an undersized toy presents a choking risk. Inspect the toy regularly for signs of wear, cracking, or deformation, and replace if structural integrity is compromised. Clean the treat compartment regularly to prevent residue buildup. Store in a clean, dry location between uses.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Hand wash with warm water and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly, paying particular attention to the treat compartment and nubbed surface where food residue may collect. Allow to dry completely before refilling or returning to use. Regular cleaning maintains hygiene and supports the toy's long-term material performance.
