BG Scent Rabbit Ball
The BG Scent Rabbit Ball is a trainer-led gundog training tool designed and tested by gundog trainer Ben Randall of Beggarbush Gundogs. Built to create a stronger, more realistic rabbit scent line, it is covered in rabbit skin and weighted to travel at speed, making it ideal for developing nose-led retrieves, marking and committed hunting on the ground.
This is a purposeful training aid, not a basic play ball. The balance and weight help it run on hard ground and down hills, leaving a clear rabbit scent line from the fall, helping dogs learn to hunt the line and locate the retrieve with intent.
Sizing and Weight
- Small: approx. 4.1 inches including rabbit skin, approx. 290g
- Large: approx. 5 inches including rabbit skin, approx. 500g
Why Use a Scent Rabbit Ball
The rabbit skin helps lay a natural scent line as the ball moves, encouraging nose-down hunting rather than purely sight chasing. The extra weight and balance increase ground travel and consistency, so the dog has a clearer line to work from the fall and a more realistic retrieve task to complete.
