Would like it to be larger than a soccer ball but like that its softer than hard plastic

It's roughly the same size as a soccer ball, and it's definitely softer than plastic. Unlike a soccer ball, it retains its shape even after being punctured.

Are materials used non-toxic and safe? Why no mention of this in product description?

I've learned if it doesn't say non toxic, it probably is toxic and not safe.

Does this ball have a hard shell or softer? Wondering if my dog can get a hold of it to carry it around

Depends on the Ball Size, and its backwards to what you would assume... I bought the larger for a large dog and the small for a small dog. the larger ball size seems to easy enough to temporarily deflate so that most size dogs can pick it up without a problem. The smaller ball size seems to be extremely difficult for even my largest dog to get his mouth around it/get a grip. Only get the smaller size if your dog has a really strong/large jaw. The larger one is more like a regular soccer ball and even after a year, its dirty, but it certainly bounces.

Is this ball squishy so the fog can grab it?

My Labrador carries this ball no problem. I also got her the 6inches version of the same ball https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01EMSVUZ4/ref=twister_B01I6WCRMM?_encoding=UTF8&th=1 which fit nicely in her mouth. She loves play with both as do her doggie friends at the park. I highly recommend this toy.
