I've tried a number of things for this and haven't been to happy about any of them as stuff happens.
Some one suggested a tennis ball in some thread but they only weigh about 1oz which isn't enough really. My dog eats rubber balls and there are some available in pet shops that are hollow, a bit spikey and have a small bell in them. Haven't bought one for ages, she destroys them in about 10mins. One of the girls in the pet shop weighed one for me and it comes out at about 4ozs so I've bought one. Cheap for a pet toy at £1.20 and it should last some time providing the dog doesn't get hold of it. Should be easy to add additional weight too if needed as there is a large hole in one end.
Will try it next week - to many kids on the playing fields on weekends - must keep and eye out for dogs too
