Wayne, please do not let your dog chew on tennis balls. One of my dog's prior owners let him chew on them for so long that you can see the dentin in his lower incisors and he has significant wear on his canines, as well. They are very very bad for dog's teeth.

I totally agree with this. There have been several threads here about this, and I meant to find one ... I'm glad you posted about it, Kristin.
I agree too. I used a tennis ball only for retrieve, and it took only a month to damage his teeth. He was only chewing on it while he was retrieving the ball. Now all 4 canines are flat. I'm not making that mistake again.
