Want An Easy Way To Keep Your Dog Happy And Healthy In Less Than 10 Minutes A Day?
According to a 2012 survey conducted by the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention, 53% of adult dogs were classified as overweight or obese by their veterinarian. In addition to the health concerns, many experts say that lack of exercise is a leading cause of hyperactive and destructive behavior in dogs.
As the adopter of two beloved pit bull dogs, I'm always looking for ways to keep them well exercised. My busy schedule doesn't allow for the long walks recommended by professional dog behaviorists. I read about something called a flirt pole and thought it would be worth trying out. It works by converting the natural prey drive instinct in dogs into exercise as they attempt to catch the lure by sprinting, changing direction, and jumping.
So I bought one of the fiberglass rod flirt poles that are made in China. The good news is that the dogs went crazy chasing the lure. The bad news is that it lasted one day. One chomp on the tip of the rod and the fiberglass broke, splintering in my dog's mouth. I was angry and decided to design my own.
Sure, you can make a simple DIY flirt pole following instructions online. But I didn't want a simple flirt pole, I wanted the best flirt pole possible. So I developed the Squishy Face Studio Flirt Pole, which I truly believe is the ultimate dog exercise toy for busy people. Our Flirt Poles are made in the USA using components tested for durability, strength, safety and light weight.
Here are some features that make our Flirt Pole V2 the best:
- The only flirt pole on the market that uses bungee cord to prevent “whiplash” when lure is caught
- Perfect for people with limited mobility
- Our tough dog toys can be used with dogs of any size
- Also works great as a training tool and provides the mental exercise dogs need
- Regular size flirt pole has a 36” pole section and 52” cord
- Jr size available for smaller play areas with 24" pole and 42" cord
- Includes your choice of durable polyester lures in different color combinations, with or without squeaker
- Easily change lures without the use of fasteners that can injure your dog's mouth
- Lightweight. The Flirt Pole with the included lure weighs less than one pound
- Soft, non-slip grip and wrist strap for easy handling
Imagine a quiet evening at home after a long, grueling day at work. The only sound you hear is an occasional “snort, snort” and the muffled “fruff, fruff, fruff” of dream barking. Your furry best friend is sleeping like a log, tuckered out from playing with the Flirt Pole. You are relaxed too. Comforted knowing that you are helping your four-legged family stay happy and healthy while still having time to put your aching feet up and let your body soak into soft cushions. This could be your night too!

New favorite toy
My dog loves this and is a well behaved boy now that he is tuckered out. The only down side is that he loves this so much that I have to put it up and out of his reach when we are done playing.

Good toy for energetic dog
My almost 6 mo. old lab loves it....she has so much energy and I need something besides walking and bike riding to get some of that energy out and it's fun for her. It also speaks to her hunting instincts. I gave it 4 stars because I wish the pole was longer...and nothing is perfects.

Most favorite toy.
My dog thinks this is the only toy worth having. He is a pointer and takes great delight in "pointing" the "critter" when it is on the ground. Ten minutes with this and he is exhausted for several hours. Think part of the exhaustion is the mental work in locking a point on the "critter".
Only negative is that the rubber cup holding the bungee cord wears over time and eventually breaks. Have to realize that I do use it daily and a lot. Was without one for about 4 days and it was a major crisis! -
Very sturdy and safe
Flirt poles are one of my options to teach impulse control to highly excitable canine clients. I love the Squishy face flirt pole as I can rely on it to hold up to even the most powerful, excited dog.
It is important to my business that the items I choose to offer for sale are high quality, and worth the money spent. Squishy Face flirt poles meet my high standards, and all of my clients love them! -
Flirt Pole V2 is Great!
Our pitty LOVES this toy! At first, I was skeptical with how powerful of a chewer she was and how she destroys every toy we get for her, but the quality of this is mind blowing! We had our first one for 2 years before she finally got the best of it and we then ordered a second one! She plays for hours with this!

More fun than chasing the landscapers
My high drive, reactive, doggie-daycare expelled doberman will work for this toy. He plays frisbee and fetches balls but nothing holds his attention like his squishy face flirt pole. When the neighbors landscapers are working on the other side of the fence, formerly an irresistible game of "just how sure are you that fence will keep you safe?", I can redirect Gustav's attention with the presence of the pole alone. Actively playing with it is the best, but he finds it so rewarding that even the possibility of playing with it is worth passing up on delicious mischief. He has to watch when I put it away in the shed when we are done or else he won't release hope that there is another round to be had. Absolutely the best training currency I have for a difficult high energy dog.

Have your Dogs Crawling back into their beds at night
Love these Products, the only thing my Dogs love more than the Super Tug is the Squishy Face Studios Flirt Pole. They would play it all day if you let them. ( Make sure to give plenty of breathers in between play sessions and water.)

My dog's face squishes to new heights!
Love this toy, great exercise for both of us. Sturdy and holding up to the tug when my small horse catches it!

Best way to exercise pit bull-type dogs!
We absolutely love these poles and have not only used them for our dogs and our fosters, but also for dogs at the rescues we volunteer for. Great for incorporating impulse control training into fun playtime and it really helps to keep the dogs fit!
