Yellow is hard enough to find. Actually, labs like Rover use scent more than sight. I’d spit or rub my hand over a new ball to make it easier for my golden to find.
Wilson Championship 100 Years Anniversary … – Amazon.comwww.amazon.com › Wilson-Championship-Years-Anni…Premium white tennis balls play great on all court surfaces with extra duty felt for additional durability and performance.
My Rugby gets teeth freeze after the third or fourth toss from the snow on the ball. Maybe it’s a brain freeze like from ice cream, ouch! Pretty funny, then he does kind of like a drop the Mic bit.
Yellow and white are the only colors approved by the ITF, and most balls produced are a fluorescent yellow known as “optic yellow”, first introduced in 1972 following research demonstrating they were more visible on television. Tennis balls are filled with air and are surfaced by a uniform felt-covered rubber compound.
One day, back when we had 2 Labs, I was picking dropped apples up from the ground and throwing them out into the field. One of the dogs ran out and thought it was a game of fetch. Only…she would eat the apples before returning to resume the game. She didn’t last past very many throws…
We used colored lacrosse balls with our lab. I think it took us more than six years to lose all of the balls in the bag of six. One of the balls glowed in the dark.Drool wiped right off.

Do white tennis balls even still exist? (I’d Google but I don’t wanna.)

Color doesn’t matter to dogs. They smell stuff.

With that much snow on the ground, Red, a frisbee is a better choice.

Surely there would be a small hole where the ball landed. But it looks like they are trying to find balls that have been there awhile. I donno!

I had a friend who painted golf balls black so he could play in the snow. I’m not a fan of golf, so…
