Twix (my collie's name) was a big surprise to me. But I instantly fell in love with it and play with it to this day. Although the hair can be a bit irritating since it is so stringy, you constantly have to brush it to make it look good. Oh, and if you ever want to wash it, DO NOT put it in the washer and dryer. All it does is poof up the hair and it refuses to go back to normal. But a great toy none the less and a great pet for young ones!

Very popular product. The Collie is adorable and unique. The tag has a code that enables your child to view and care for the virtual version of the collie. The site is very child friendly. There is no way to directly interact with other children so bullying, child predators, or foul language is not a concern. It teaches children how to care for pets. Be cautioned, webkinz come with accesories. Be prepared to seek out clothes, new pets, and trading cards. Kids love them. It's a harmless toy and adorable to boot.

My granddaughter is absolutely thrilled with Webkinz and the collie made her very happy! She would spend hours on the web site if her mother approved but is limited--so all her computer time is spent with her Webkinz "friends". It is a great toy for her and other girls her age (she is 9).

My daughter has spent countless hours playing with this toy. The educational value comes from the video link to the games on the Internet. (Without computer access, the educational value disappears.) That we own a collie is part of the attraction, I'm sure. The games, however, have taught her a lot about taking care of pets as well as other skills. I'd much rather she spent her money on toys like this instead of regular stuffed animals.

I bought the Webkinz collie for my grandson; and so far I have heard that he enjoys it very much.

Webkinz are fun toys that you can go online and play with! The collie is adorable and tons of fun online! I am now and owner of 5 webkinz and the collie is my favorite. I give this toy 5 stars. I recommend all Webkinz products for ages 5-13 years of age.

This is a nice toy. It is a very cute collie dog and is even more cute online.

All Webkinz come with a tag. Inside the tag there is a code that lets you into Webkinz World. Be careful though! If you lose the tag, you will not be able to access Webkinz World. You will need the tag if you ever need to change your password too, so don't throw it away after making your Webkinz account.

When you make your webkinz account, you will be greeted by a computer character named Ms. Birdy. She will lead you through the steps of adopting your webkinz, like creating a name for your webkinz pet, a username, the gender of your pet, and other steps like that. Don't worry about remembering your secret code because all you need to do is enter your username and password. Remember that your username is different than your pet's name.

When you are through the process of adopting your pet, you will be in your room. There you can see your pet walk around. You can also decorate your room. You can buy a room by pressing the map button in the upper left corner. There is a small room, a medium room, a large room, and a outdoor room. In the outdoor room you can buy seed packets and garden daily, you can place furniture in the outdoor room, but only certain items. House items you can't put in the outdoor rooms, and vice versa. There are some items that you can put inside and outside.

When you adopt a pet, you will start off with 2000 kinzcash. Kinzcash is what you use to buy furniture, food, games, decorations and more. You can earn kinzcash by playing games in the arcade and tournament arena. You can also get kinzcash by selling things.

Playing games is a good way to earn kinzcash. You can play games in the arcade, and the tournament arena. In the arcade there are lots of games. In the tournament arena, you play against real players. See below about kinzchat and friends. Anyway there are lots of other different games in the tournament arena. Some games in the tournament arena are not multi-player.


In the clubhouse you can make friends and chat with different people. Be aware that these are real people. With kinzchat, there are pre-made sentences that you use so there are no inappropriate words used. There are also no numbers, so personal information such as addresses and phone numbers can not be shared. You can also make friends. With friends you can invite them over to to your house and invite them to play multiplayer games with you.

You have to feed your pet, and keep it happy and healthy. Webinz CAN NOT die, but can get sick. When they get sick you have to bring it to Dr. Quack's Clinic. You might also want to bring your pet when it's not sick so your pet can have a checkup.

There are 2 places to shop. At the W-Shop you can find everything, and sometimes things are on sale. There is also the Curio Shop where you might find rare items. Arte Fact greets you at the Curio Shop. You can also do a gem hunt daily. If you get all 30 gems you get a Crown of Wonder.

There are some daily things you can do, like The Wishing Well 2 and the Wheel of WOW. Also you can do a gem hunt ( see above ), do a job at the Employment Office, do a daily care award, and garden.

There are a few other things I should mention. Quizzy's is a educational quiz corner with lots of questions for all ages. It is the fastest way to earn kinzcash. When you log in you will always arrive at the newspaper. The newspaper changes every week usually on Wednesday, and Thursday. Sometimes the front cover story changes more often to announce important things.

Sometimes there is a glitch in the site when the site is busy. You can have better luck getting on in the afternoon or morning. Weekends and evenings are VERY busy.

I really hope this helps you decide if you would like a Webkinz.

Its a collie webkinz. I say get it if your kid wants a dog. It won't poop on the floor.

A great gift for the grandchild who loves webkinz. The Collie is the "Hot" webkinz right now. It was a popular gift.

The collie came in a nice package and it was in very decent shape. It came in the mail fairly quickly and i was very pleased with the service.
