Toy ball almost killed my great dane puppy.

PGAA received the following e-mail today (11-25-10). This e-mail has not been verified but the Cuz Ball may have the same issues as the Pimple Ball that was removed from sale in 2008. This is simply an advisory for all pet owners verify the safety of the toy before giving it to your pet.

Snopes article on the Pimple Ball

On November 22, 2010, Bella, my almost 8 months puppy broke the squeaker of her new toy large Good Cuz and thus a hole was created. This hole turned out to be a powerful vacum and sucked up Bella's tongue into the small hole. What the Cuz did to my Bella was exactly the same as the Pimple Ball did to Chai. Fortunately, Bella's tongue is saved but poor Chai's has been amputated. This whole incident was so distressful which I would not like to repeat it. I have already report the incident to the JW Pet company to request a recall of this dangerous toy from the market. IF THERE IS ALREADY A HOLE IN YOUR CUZ, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE THROW IT ALWAY IMMEDIATELY.

The following is the 2008 notice by Four Paws Rough and Rugged® Pimple Ball with Bell. PGAA is not sure if they are the same product but care should be taken with the Pimple Ball and the Good Cuz ball. If you have ever taken a hollow ball, cut a slice in it, and then stuck your finger in the slice you can see the danger it poses.
