(Most) Dogs love to chase tennis balls. A fun gift for a neighbor dog -- as you can never have too many tennis balls!

The name brand tennis balls (Wilson, etc.) are often a bit more expensive than the non-branded type. However, they will last longer and therefore be safer for your dog.

Can be purchased at sporting goods stores and/or discount department stores (i.e. Target, K-Mart). You can sometimes find them in the "seasonal" area of your local grocery store, as well.
