Overview
iFetch is an award-winning automatic ball launcher that can be used indoors or outdoors to play fetch with your pup! iFetch throws a ball a variable distance when a ball is placed in the funnel by your or your dog.
iFetch comes in two sizes, the smaller version launching 1.5" diameter miniature tennis balls 10, 20, or 30 feet. This version runs on an AC Adapter (included) or 6 C-cell batteries (not included).
The larger iFetch Too launches balls 2.5" in diameter (standard tennis balls can also be used) either 10, 25, or 40 feet, and operates thanks to a built-in, rechargeable battery powered by a 110 and 220 volt AC charger.
Each iFetch includes three balls that are felted like tennis balls, but made for dogs with non-abrasive material safe for teeth. Owner supervision is recommended.
