I have a molten volleyball that my dog's tooth put a hole in. It is leather. I tried putting super glue over.

Question

I tried putting super glue over it but the air kept coming out. Does anyone have any suggestions so I do not have to throw it away. It is a leather volleyball.

Answer 1

If you try to inject something inside to try to seal it from the inside, all it will do is throw off the balance of the ball. You'll then have one of those balls that wobble when it's spinning in the air.

I think that ball is done in terms of using it for game play. You might be able to still use it for some basic setting drills to yourself around the house though.

Answer 2

Leather volleyballs have a rubber bladder inside (usually colored black). If the dog pieced the bladder, then there is little you can do to repair. You might find some kind of "flat fixer" at a sporting goods store that you can inject into the ball('s bladder) and hope it fixes the "flat."
