Our little princess wanted this game for her 8th birthday because our two Huskies she used to play with aren't puppies any longer and grew intimidatingly large. A couple of weeks later she's now telling me that this is the best DSi game ever and she's played a few.
WHAT'S TO LIKE?
This could be a long list but, to name some of the more striking features I should begin with the gorgeous graphics and animations. The little puppy looks and acts very much like the real thing. She also loves the ability to teach her puppies (can have up to three at a time) voice commands and, if proper trained, the dog will obey them. And, since I mentioned it, it's the training, of course. It's not easy to train your puppy but that's what makes the game fun because, being hard makes our girl so proud of her achievements - she runs to show me every time her little pet learned a new trick. And then it's the contests - obedience, agility and disc catching - which reward her patience and perseverance.
And, this really stands out, on a DSi you have the ability to let your puppy play with other Nintendodogs that happen to be nearby while in wireless mode.
WHAT'S NOT TO LIKE?
The price, of course. This is a very expensive game if bought new. We bought ours used in a 'as new' condition for a fraction of Amazon's 'new' price and, maybe we were lucky, but I don't believe we're missing anything.
OUR RATING
It's our girl's rating because she's the one playing it and it's an enthusiastic 5 stars.
