Editorial Review

While there exist numerous trainable robotic dogs on the marketplace, there's something a little refreshing about a furry mechanical pup that simply does whatever he wants to. Because really, haven't we all met or even owned dogs like that? Once Go-Go is turned on, he moves back and forth on tiny wheels hidden under thick blond fur all the while pivoting at the shoulders and hips to give a more realistic depiction of walking. Go-Go is a noisy little critter as well barking and panting while moving about the floor. While the real dog movements and sounds were lots of fun, such entertainment does come at a price, in this case five "C" batteries. Like a real dog, Go-Go wears a fetching purple bandana but unlike a real dog, Go-Go has an off switch. --Charlie Williams

2.0 out of 5 stars Boring and doesn't easily come when called, December 11, 2003

This review is from: FurReal Friends Go Go My Walkin' Pup (Toy)

I had purchased this toy for my daughter for Christmas, but after reading (and trusting) the reviews I decided to let her play with it now so I had time to get her something else if this wasn't a good toy. Turns out the reviews are right. My daughter had to repeatedly call the dog, only to have it move two feet, turn its head and bark at her. She got bored with it after twenty minutes. The dog isn't useful as a "stuffed" animal either. It's just a machine with fur over it so it's not something she'd cozy up with. The fur was sliding around on it too. Not a good toy and not worth the price. I returned it the next day and my daughter hasn't asked about it since.

2.0 out of 5 stars Go Go is a No Go, November 29, 2003

Bought Go Go for my 7 year old daughter who tried to call it once with no success. This toy does not come when called unless you are screaming loudly and continuously for a long while.

The fur is fine and brushes well, and the sounds made are real enough. The biggest complaint is that the motions are too hard to "train" and this toy does not respond as described to sounds.

This toy is good only for a stuffed animal and even then it isn't very good; white fur, too heavy etc. It does NOT listen to it's commands. We gave this to my daughter for her 6th birthday.

She had a hard time with the instructions "pat the side twice to follow you, pat the head to stay, rub the back and..." Sorry but it never (and I do mean never) did what we asked it too. Instead it would just go around and around to the right. Bad toy!
