I have never purchased a Barbie product...until now. I simply couldn't resist "Barbie & Tanner". I love this! God bless America!
Does this toy teach young girls moral lessons about the responsibilities of pet ownership and the importance of cleaning up their mess? Or, is the feces-eating devil dog teaching impressionable young kids that its ok to consume their own excrement? Who knows, and who cares. I'm sure the kids will enjoy it. I bought two. I gave one to the Toys for Tots drive, and plan on keeping the other for myself.. I can't wait to show the gang at work!

this doll is hillarious. my six year old daughter loves barbie and HAD to have the "pooping dog". everyone poos....so do animals....isn't it teaching kids to be responsible and pick up your pets poo so others don't have to step in it? don't most states have pooper scooper laws? anyway, it's not like it's real poo, they are little brown magnetic pellets that look like tic tacs. parts are small so be careful with smaller children. barbie and dog are great!

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Barbie Forever Barbie Doll with Tanner the Dog (Toy)

I saw this in stores last year, and loved it. I've waited for the price to lower, but it still stood it's place. So I gave in and bought it. I didnt regret it even for a bit. I read the reviews from here, and thought, wow. Pooping dog???!!!! SO CUTE.

So i got it on my To-Buy list, and bought it with the money mom gave me. I quickly got home, and opened the box. Loved it to bits! At first, I thought that the mouth was stuck. But then i pried it open with my fingers, and the "lifting-the-tail" worked! I was so happie! Tanner has a very very soft fur. Not the kind of quality it has on Barbie's hair, but the kind of cute, fuzzy ones.

When I make Tanner eat the dog treats, the treats automatically makes a "tok!" sound, asuring me that the treat is saftely in her stomach. One thing though- When you move her head when she has treats in it, "poo" will come out. It was hilarious!

The "carpet" provided is just plain carpet. But It did'nt really suprise me. Since Mattel is, alittle Cardboard obssesed.

OKay back to Barbie-- Barbie wears a cream brown capris, purple long sleved doggie shirt in side, and a small jacket out side. She has white and blue sneakers, and her makeup is very light. Barely visible, very smooth looking. Oh ya, and she has a belt oh her capris! Very trendy! Her hair is very smooth, and light. The box comes with a pooper-scooper, Barbie and Tanner (duh) Food container, Food Bowl, Trash Bin, "carpet", Green Base ( For the trash bin and the Food Container), A yellow bear, a yellow "bone", Blue rope, and a purple ball, and tons and tons of Fun~~

I love to put the rope, or bones, or anything that is long and narrow between Tanner's mouth, and pretend that she just caught something Barbie threw for her, or even she's carrying the toy to the beach, so Barbie and play fetch with her! Anyways, I loved this dog, and it brought alot of fun-- for me, at least. I highly recommened it to everyone! Hope this Helps!!
