The wheels often stick so that the toy just drags on both wooden floors and carpet. I looked at it, and it seems the leg & wheel pieces often wiggle into a position where they are too tight together and they just can't move. The design is clunky too and the pull string is a bit too short.

PASS on the puppy pull toy and go straight for the Frolicking Frog by the same company, Melissa & Doug. The frog is great!

This toy does not roll. You might as well tie a string to a box and drag it around the kitchen or the family room.

The wheels on this toy do not turn properly, so it cannot be pulled as intended. When my daughter pulls it, she's really just dragging it along because the wheels don't roll. Very, very disappointing :(

I bought this for my 18 month old son after he was dragging my work ID badge and lanyard around like a pull toy. He still likes my work ID, but this is a close runner up :). It's very sturdy and doesn't fall on its side too easily, which is great for when he takes corners. he got another pull toy as a gift that has a much narrower base, and it frustrates him a lot when it constantly falls over, so I appreciate the construction of this puppy. The string is a good length, my only complaint is that it doesn't have something easier to grab onto on the end--it has a tendency to slip out of my son's hands, since he's still working on that fine motor gripping. This is easily remedied by a little craftiness to tie the string onto a small wooden cylinder (think kite flying). overall, a great simple toy.

My daughter "walks her dog" all the time. We have hardwoods and carpet and don't have any problems with the wheel jamming or not turning.

Gave this to one of my twin granddaughters and she loved it because A) its a dog and b) because it wiggles as it rolls. Didn't buy it for any education value-just a fun little toy for a baby to learn how to pull things behind them. Very solid construction. Too Bad its made in China. Won't be purchasing any more toys made there.

I purchased this dog for my daughter for Christmas. It was smaller than I expected, but well made and my daughter has enjoyed it.

This was made well but my daughter didn't find much interest in it. I bought it for her when she was 1 and never really played with it. It does tip over sideways when you pull it.

It is a pull along toy that does not roll well -- beats the purpose. The movement of the wheels controls the movement of the head and the body. The wheels however get jammed 80% of the time (on carpet) as a result the dog just skids along and all the fun head and body movement -- that's the design hallmark-- does not work.

my 14 month old loves dragging this cute little toy around the house, great buy for someone looking for cheap hours of fun
