Is the ball hollow and does it retain its round shape once a hole is put through it

Yes it is hollow. My dog has chewed it up quite a bit, but it still retains its shape. However, the handle had been destroyed.
1634207
yes. it works great. you dog can carry it around and bite down on it and it comes right back to its shape. My rotties love this ball.

the ball is hollow but it keeps it's shape even after being punctured multiple times. My dog has chewed half the handle off and it still bounces and keeps the round shape. He loves it!

Yes, the ball is hollow, but does retain it's shape regardless of the number of puncture holes created by biting and chewing. The handle didn't last very long, but this doesn't seem to decrease the fun factor for my boxer/pitbull dog.

The ball is hollow and rigid. I don't know about retaining shape if it had a hole since mine doesn't have one.

Yes it is hollow. Made of thick rubber. it does have a drain hole. We play fetch with it so it is an outside toy. And yes if a chunk goes missing it retains its shape. It is not indestructible but it lasts a long time with my 50 pound border collie. He fetches it and does chew on it like a mouth stress ball, then we throw it around again. I have tried the larger jolly ball, but I like this size so I can throw it like a tennis ball. I have heard other people complain that their dog chews the handle off, but I don't have that problem.

The ball is hollow, but it is molded, not inflated, so it holds its shape . In fact, it actually comes with a small hole in it, I assume as a result of the molding process. My boxer loves biting the ball and forcing air out the hole--I think she likes the sound.

It is hollow and Axel our German Shepherd has put small punctures in it and so far its still the same. I have to say it's very sturdy. We were leary about it also and are very satisfied

My dog has jaws of steel. Even when he has finally made a hole in the ball it still maintains it's shape and provides plenty of entertainment for a long, long time.

the ball holds it's shape but because it is hollow I found it to be flimsy. I would highly recommend the 8 inch jolly on a rope. although my dog went through the rope in about 15 seconds, the ball has lasted a year and believe me my dog has had his way with it!

I dont know where you got this information, but who ever provided it is crazy. The round ball is about 2 1/4 inches diameter. It is always fully inflated and bounces very high.

Completly round but there is a seam. We had a friend cut the hole bigger for us , we used it for costume "space helmets'.

Yes it is hollow but not openable without a saw. It is still working perfectly after a year!!

The ball itself , It will squeeze flat yes. It doesn't stay flat on its own. It's like a spring .

It is not completely flat. The edges round to touch the surface bit the center is slightly concave.

It is hollow but sturdy enough if you don't exceed the bench's maximum capacity. I haven't had any problems with it.

Yes it is P shaped with adhesive on the flat of the P. the round section is 3/8 diameter and collapses to about 3/16, it is hollow. The flat side is 1 inch.

Sort of. It's not completely hollowed out but it also is not a smooth surface. Hope that helps.

It isn't a hole that keeps the ball in place, but 2 low pieces of plastic jutting up from the base about 5 inches apart that the ball rests on. I hope this helps.

I am not sure if it's hollow or not, it was very easy to squish in your hands. I would think you could cut it open and hollow it out with a sharp knife if you are a bit crafty. Great idea!

There is no sand in the ball to keep it stable. There is a steak knife in the ball to keep it flat, but it did not come that way. Someone had to install it. I suppose that after the steak knife was used we could have put sand in through the opening. Then the ball would have been stable and flat, but I don't think that's what you're after.

Hollow with a squeaker. I ordered 2 balls and the first ball lasted about a week before the squeaker quit squeaking. The second ball is still fine and my standard poodle plays with it constantly. She loves it. I am bumbed out about the first one, they are expensive.

It is larger than normal, however, they do make 2" balls that will fit this diameter hole. The bar is very heavy because it is solid, not hollow like most.

We bought this a couple years ago, and while it appears hollow by sound, it does have a bottom on it, and a spike to stick in the earth to hold it steady. Even if it is hollow, it is very THICK, and does have a bottom to it. Leah

You should not have any problem as it will flatten out and will not mess with its shape
