Houten dumbbell gripcorrector

My dog used to spin the round dumbbell around and gnaw on the ends, but the oval bar changed that completely. He actually holds it steady now during retrieves, which is exactly what my trainer wanted for grip work.

My pup finally stopped trying to re-grip and turn the dumbbell during retrieves—that oval center bar really does the trick. It’s been a week of daily use and he hasn’t once tried to roll it sideways like he did with our old round one.

My older dog tends to mouth things when he’s excited, and the oval center bar clearly makes it awkward for him to get a sideways grip, so he’s stopped trying to chomp down. The wood feels smooth and sturdy in my hand, though I do wish it came in a slightly larger size for bigger breeds like his. Sti
