Description

blind prickly pear cactus Opuntia RufidaOpuntia rufida is a species of prickly pear cactus known by the scary common name blind prickly pear! It is native to Texas and adjacent Mexico, where it grows on limestone. The species makes up for its total lack of spines with a profusion of red brown glochids which it sheds with abandon and is a menace to any gardener. Whether it's true or not the glochids have the reputation of detaching and flying on the wind and can blind cattle. Low maintenance

Opuntia rufida is a species of prickly pear cactus known by the scary common name blind prickly pear! It is native to Texas and adjacent Mexico, where it grows on limestone.

The species makes up for its total lack of spines with a profusion of red-brown glochids which it sheds with abandon and is a menace to any gardener. Whether it's true or not the glochids have the reputation of detaching and flying on the wind and can blind cattle.  

Low-maintenance and an excellent choice for anyone new to growing houseplants. This plant will thrive as long as its water only when it's completely dry and kept in a warm and sunny spot.

Great Ball Launcher!
Style: Sport, Size: Large
Our dogs love this ball launcher! I can throw the ball long distances without any arm strain. The balls wear out, and as described by others, tennis balls don’t fit. Buy extra balls if this is of concern. We bought a few of the “Chuck It” rubber 3” balls and they have worked well for our dogs. It’s a great value and fun for the dogs.

Chuckit!! Just Chuck it!!
Style: Sport, Size: Large
Chuck it further than your skinny little arms can chuck it. Doggo loved this, I loved this and when we were done Doggo promptly hid it under the porch so I couldn’t take it from him. It’s not a squeaky toy, it’s for fetch. You wing it out toward the yard and it flies, bounces if it’s lucky then is attacked in an adoring manner. We like it!!

The perfect toy for dogs!
Style: The Duo
This is perfect when you have 2 dogs who love to play Fetch! They no longer have to chase after the same ball! The balls that come with it are very sturdy, and the launcher sends both balls far enough away so that both dogs get plenty of exercise. It’s definitely worth the price!

PERFECT RETRIEVING TOY
Style: EcoFetch
You can barely whip it and it sails far and fast. This is the perfect retrieving toy for my GSP. She's used to average and we now have a small yard, so the dog park is where she gets to run hard and fast. You can also throw tennis balls with it, which is a plus for when her sister steals her ball. 5 star fun!
