Most plastic electronic toys have a lifespan of several days. Some break, most just really aren't as interesting as they appear to be. iDog is different: my son really loves his and he uses it regularly.

It's not a great speaker, but it is an amusing little device with some clever "behaviors". It gets happy, sad, dances and its ears wiggle to the beat. It doesn't eat batteries. It's not as "smart" as the manual would have you believe, but it's smart enough. Hey, he's just a dog :-).

The iDog will accept music from any audio source that has a mini plug for headphones (not just iPods). It has a little speaker, but also comes with a cord that you can plug headphones into, as well. It also can "listen" to music (and respond) without being plugged in at all. Simple, and pretty neat. And the price is right.

Nice job, Hasbro!

This is one of my favorite toys. I got him at Target and I couldin't wait to open him. Little Dj (that's what I named him) dances when he hears music and works on mp3 players. The speaker is great and I use it for my cd player. Although I don't have an ipod, this little guy is still a good toy. Now i'm working on getting some clothes and a little purse for it. Oh, and I forgot, get the black idog not the white one! I highly recommend this toy.

PROS:
1.Decent volume
2.Very durable
3.Pretty fun
4.Don't have to clean up after it LOL
5.Colorful
6.Works with almost all types of mp3s

CONS:
1.Takes awhile to put in batteries
2.Takes a little longer to turn off
3.Has little battery time (i suggest get rechargible batteries so u don't have to waist money on batteries)


Conclusion: VERY CO0L!!!!!!!!!!!!

This toy is really cool. i like to watch him groove to the beat! though it takes time to put in the batteries, it's still a very cool toy!

I think this is a very great toy.It plays great with my ipod video.I always have to close the door when i play with it because it scares my dogs',but they've got used to it.This is a great buy for a great toy.The batteries do take a little while to put in ,but besides that its great!

If you are looking for a high quality speaker for your MP3 player this is not for you. It is however adorable and a lot of fun. Another plus is that it does work with different MP3 players. I use it with my Creative Zen.

This is such a cool item for kids who love music and have and Ipod. I purchased this for the boy I nanny for and he loves it. He carries it around with him. He loves dogs so this was perfect. It's cute. The dog does not like his tail pulled though, it's so cute. You interact with the dog to see what kind of music he likes the best that you play through him.

I bought this item as a holiday present for our child. It was opened with great excitement - followed by great disappointment when we realized that it was broken. The lights work but it will not play music through the speakers.

After a dozen attempts to call the manufacturer on their 800-line, I finally got past the busy signal, to some time on hold, followed by a human who took down the information. She said she'd send a mailing label for us to return it, and we could expect the label in a week. Once they received the product, they would send a replacement (after a week or so for processing) - though they could not promise it would be the same color. Shipping might take a little while, too. So, in a little under a month, I would get a replacement. So much for happy holidays.

After some complaining at my end, she agreed to send out the replacement sooner ... but that was two weeks ago and we haven't received it yet.

Happy holidays, Hasbro!

It's a nice addition to a desk, and mostly novelty in its uses. My dog ended up chewing mine up a few years later. It does last for a while and people always ask what it is. Its basically a toy.

Got this little guy from Woot as a Christmas gift for my daughter and I think we've all just fallen in love with him. His lights, personality, his dancing, what's not to love! Only complaint is that sometimes it's hard to get him to dance using the lights on his face, but nothing insurmountable!

Go iDog, GO!! :)
