If your dogs all like tennis balls, get a Chuck-it.

If your dogs like other kinds of balls and you want to exercise them, a parametric ball chucker tuned for their favorite kind of ball will save your arm.

This one attaches to a standard broom handle (or squeegee handle, in my case) using http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:8478

Note that the STL's are tuned to work with very specific types of balls (i.e. the 80mm is for a fairly squishy Hartz Dura Play, the 100mm is for a large Sprong! hex ball) and may not work well with any random round thing you try. It's worth taking the time to tune and test with your own toys.

Resolution:

0.2mm

Notes:

Printed in PLA and PETG.

It likes a raft and/or brim to print successfully on its side as the tips have a tendency to curl. I've managed without, but it's not as easy.
