Graubünden im Aufbruch. 1889 wurde die Strecke Landquart-Davos als erste Bahnlinie in Graubünden eröffnet; mit viel technischem Geschick legten Bauarbeiter und Ingenieure in den folgenden Jahren bis 1913 weitere Schienenwege durch die Bündner Täler. Sie bildeten die Grundlage für den touristischen und wirtschaftlichen Aufschwung in der Region, förderten aber auch den kulturellen und gesellschaftlichen Austausch. In vielen hervorragenden Fotografien ist diese Anfangszeit der Bahn in Graubünden dokumentiert. Die Bilder zeigen die Eisenbahn in der wilden, bis dahin kaum erschlossenen Gebirgslandschaft und vermitteln so auf einmalige Weise den Geist von Fortschrittsglaube und Öffnung nach aussen, der in jener Zeit auch in die Alpentäler gedrungen ist. Beim heutigen Betrachter wecken die Aufnahmen aber auch nostalgische Gefühle, zeugen sie doch von einer Technik, die sich den Kräften der Natur noch bedingungslos unterordnen musste. In diesem Bildband sind die 138 besten Fotografien aus dem Dampfzeitalter der Rhätischen Bahn vereint. Es sind dies keine technikorientierten Abbildungen von Lokomotiven und Zugskompositionen, sondern grossartige Aufnahmen von Landschaften und Alltagsszenen, in denen die Dampfeisenbahn zuweilen nur eine Nebenrolle spielt. Bildthemen sind etwa der Bahnbau, der Tourismusbetrieb, das Bahnhofleben sowie der Alltag entlang der Bahnlinien. Und immer wieder waren die Fotografen jener Zeit fasziniert von den kühnen Brückenbauten und von den Bahntrassen, die sich elegant durch die wilde Gebirgslandschaft schlängeln. Ein Einleitungstext, verfasst vom Publizisten Iso Camartin, ordnet die im Buch vereinten Aufnahmen im verkehrs-, wirtschafts- und kulturgeschichtlichen Rahmen ein; Detailangaben, auch bahntechnischer Art, sind in den Bildlegenden zu finden, die vom Herausgeber Peter Pfeiffer stammen.

My Baby loves his new baby!
Size: Medium, Size: Medium
Finally! A ball my 107 lb. pitty/pointer mix can’t destroy. He has torn up every single “indestructible” toy in a day or so until now. He peels fabric and fur off non-rubber toys. He is a 4-legged shredder. I’ve added pictures of him for a size reference of my dog versus this product. I know I had wanted that when shopping for this item. This ball is now his beloved “baby.” He goes absolutely insane looking for it, chewing it, chasing it, and even sleeping with it. He won’t rest unless he knows exactly where it is. It is his only toy, and he is good with that. After getting this home, I tried giving him other choices, but he won’t touch them. I was worried that he would rip it apart by putting his teeth in the holes, but so far, not a scratch. It is soft enough to collapse just enough to keep it from cracking when his jaws crush it but not so soft that he can rip it to sheds. The holes are large enough to prevent a suction or vacuum effect on his tongue or mouth. For his size jaws, it is a perfect fit. Other dogs might have problems with suction or be able to get their teeth in those holes and rip it apart. Who knows? The older version of the Chuckit squeaky ball was his favorite for the year and a half he had it, but the way they make them now, he peels off the orange triangle in hours flat, the squeaker falls out (choking hazard), and then he rips it apart. I’m going to stock up on these. I can’t imagine how crazy he will be if they ever stop production or change the materials.

This is a great ball for high energy dogs.
Color: Blue
I have a Belgian Malinois, so you can imagine the Maligator jaws. Just opened this today and let her play with it indoors. She LOVES IT. It wore her out and it’s a toy she can really stay focused on without needing me to throw or roll for her. It moves on its own! I supervised her play. I was hoping it was too big to get under the couch, but no. It goes right under it. I had to block off the gap so I didn’t have to keep getting it out from under for her. The outter “shell” is very durable! When she had resting moments, she chewed it pretty good - I could hear the material squeaking against her teeth. I was worried she was tearing it up, but nope! Not a mark on it. It’s easy to set up and operate. It needed charging before play. After hours of play, she was able to somehow unscrew the outter shell. This concerned me bc the smaller, inner ball mechanism came out but I saw it right away and was able to put it back together. So, make sure it’s screwed together tightly (which I thought I had done without breaking it) and check it from time to time to make sure it hasn’t loosened. This is a great ball for her incredible high energy drive. It gives her the work and fun play she needs to get tired, which I love. This toy is on the expensive end, but so far it’s worth it. Now we’ll see how long it lasts!

Love love it
Color: Blue
Best dog toy ever. I have a 1 year old boxer who is full of energy (understatement). This ball has provided more entertainment for us both than any dog toy I’ve ever purchased. Charge holds well and has a very resilient shell. I love it. Worth the price.

Great ball for limited entertainment. Replaceable outer shell is an amazing option!
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
Bought this for our 45lb, ball-obsessed Dutch shepherd/pit bull dog mix. I had one of these years ago with the hard shell and couldn’t be happier with the new foam shell. The new foam shell is much quieter and while our dog might put holes in it with his teeth, he doesn’t seem to ever pull pieces off. For engagement level, he found it VERY interesting at first and was scared to grab it, but once he got over that he started holding it in his mouth even when it shakes and just tries to keep it. Isn’t the best for fetch or anything as he has trouble letting it go when it is actively moving, but it makes him happy while he has it. We just make sure to monitor him while it is out. The ability to change the outer shell and just buy a replacement for the shell instead of a whole new toy is a lovely feature that makes me very happy to continue buying from this company.

Great Interactive Option
Color: Blue
To start, I have been very happy with this purchase. A couple of key points for me are durability and being able to keep my dog's attention. I have had it for almost a year, just a month shy, and she hasn't managed to get through the foam outer shell even though she tries real hard to do so. Let's just say, she's hard to find toys for because of her habit of finding the point of failure where she can pick and gnaw at until the toy is no longer safe for her to have. With this toy, she not only found her match, but it also has her watching, waiting, and even stalking. Only one small issue has recently occurred: the motor has started having an issue where the charge doesn't hold, and it doesn't remain on afterwards. I have reached out to Cheerble directly to see about replacing it since I am still within their 12-month timeframe, and they responded right away.
