Testing method: XRF (x-ray fluorescent) tests for heavy metals.
Findings: Many of the tennis balls produced for the pet industry only obtained a "moderate level" rating. The few that did get a "low level" rating still had levels of lead, tin, chromium and or other heavy metals. Penn & Wilson tennis balls attained a "none level" rating with zero harmful chemicals.
Facts: Approximately 300 million tennis balls are produced each year, contributing roughly 20,000 tons of rubber to the landfills. This does not include the balls produced just for the pet industry.
We will continue to add any further testing or other information that we find.

The market is flooded with collars of all types,
materials, colors. .etc. We decided to go "Natural", utilizing 100%
natural grown hemp webbing, creating a very light weight and strong
product. The collar is very soft and comfortable for your dog to wear.
The findings used for the connections are high quality YKK buckles and steel, which contains a good
percentage of recycled product. When the
collar has completed it's work then clip off the
findings, put them in the appropriate recycling bin, and then toss the collar
into your compost pile! (the sewn on Ballboy tag is bio degradeable ) We make matching leads that will be featured soon as well!
The collar can be washed and air dried. Washing makes the collar softer
feeling collar for your pet. Put the leash in a sock, knot the top of
the
sock, and put in the wash with other non color items. Using the sock
will keep the steel findings from banging around in the tub. Remove the collar from the sock and air dry!
The Natural collar is made using 100% natural hemp webbing.
There are several sizes to choose from.
