Mess dress uniform is the semi-formal type of uniforms used by military, police, fire and other public uniformed services for certain ceremonies, receptions, and celebrations, in messes or on private occasions. It frequently consists of a mess jacket, trousers, white dress shirt, often with standing collar and bow tie, along with orders and medals insignia. Design may depend on regiment or service branch, e.g. army, navy, air force, marines, etc. In Western dress codes, mess dress uniform is a permitted supplementary alternative equivalent to the civilian black tie for evening wear or black lounge suit for day wear - sometimes collectively called half dress - although military uniforms are the same for day and evening wear. As such, mess dress uniform is considered less formal than full dress uniform, but more formal than service dress uniform.

Prior to World War II, this style of military uniform was largely restricted to the British and United States Armed Forces, although the French, German, Swedish and other navies had adopted their own versions of mess dress during the late 19th century, influenced by the British Royal Navy.

While mess dress uniform is predominantly worn at occations by commissioned officers and non-commissioned officers, it may also be worn as an optional uniform by some senior enlisted personnel. It is also sometimes worn by members of royal courts or certain civilian uniformed services.

Miniature medals are suspended on ribbons one half the width of their normal counterparts, and are worn on the left lapel. Exceptions to the miniature medals are the Medal of Honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom (although the PMF also includes an optional miniature version), and authorized foreign neck-borne decorations (e.g., Knight Commander of Order of the Bath, Commander of the Order of Military Merit, et al.) Individual and unit awards that consist of ribbons only are not worn on the mess uniform. Miniature versions of combat and special skill badges are worn above the miniature medals, along with miniature versions of Ranger and Special Forces shoulder tabs, made of enameled metal. Marksmanship and driver/mechanic badges are not worn on the mess uniform. Regimental distinctive insignia is worn on the right lapel. Identification badges worn on service uniform pockets, such as the Drill Sergeant Identification Badge, Presidential Service Badge, Recruiter Badge, Office of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Identification Badge, et al., are worn between the top and middle buttons on the applicable side of the mess uniform.

Noise, but Has Good Qualities as Well
I bought this for my German Shepherd (117lbs). He is interested and will play with it for at least 15 minutes before moving onto other toys. The movement is great. Quite sporadic which keeps my dog guessing which way it will roll. Drawback: The sounds made by the ball while enabled are quite loud and can get annoying to us humans after a while. Heaven forbid if it gets stuck when it was in a movement mode...Continues to Buzz loudly until "rescued". My Shepherd likes to chew like any other dog. The pressure on his mouth is tremendous. This ball takes it. The size is also key. Large enough to not be a choking hazard for big mouths. So safety is apparent. The material allows a lot of "slobber", but seems to either wick it away (to where - haven't a clue). If I handle it - it is miraculously dry. This would be the perfect toy if the noise level wasn't nearing "10".

Exciting vibrating ball
My dog loves the Lovkid Dog Ball. The bouncing and noises keep his attention, keep him active, and he invites me to share in the fun. He chases, watches it bounce, and hides it in the furniture. This has been an enjoyable and entertaining toy and I recommend it.

Literally a ball of fun!!
We have a multipoo and he is only about 14 pounds and let me tell.you he absolutely loves his new toy. It was so easy and quick to charge. Very rugged and chew resistant which is a must! Easy to grip and fun while on or off. It hops with a buzzing sound which keeps his attention. Very happy with this purchase!

Quiet/lightweight and good quality option toy
Lightweight and good quality foam outer shell that helps keep noise level down compared to other similar interactive toys. My herding rescue pup absolutely loves this and keeps him busy and mentally stimulated for 15-30 minutes at a time. I only docked a star because the shell replacements are so pricey; if you have an aggressive chewer, getting a silicone cage cover or sock might be helpful.
