Knows your name? ... NOT!
My 5 year old daughter has been begging for this for her birthday. We ended up getting it for her and she was super excited when she opened it.

We were the best parents in the world. We rushed to put in the CD and luckily we had a USB cable at home and started the naming process. Unbelievably, it did not have my child's name, Gabriella. That's when the hell began. Her temper ran wild. She exploded in an uncontrollable rage. "I want the puppy to know my name!!" and "Why won't it know my name!" As we tried to calm her and explain to her that her name was not available as an option, she became more enraged. We tried to persuade her to select "Ella" (yeah, believe it or not that is an option but Gabriella isn't. Not to mention the hundreds of other odd names it supports.) "My name is not Ella, my name is Gabriella!" "I don't want to be Ella!"

Don't expect that the "Puppy that Grows and Knows your Name" will really know your child's name. If anyone figures out a way to hack this thing, let me know. My little girl just can't get over it.

my 5-year old daughter loves "Fluffy".
She is so excited when she grows and loves to groom and feed her. It took us a couple days to figure out the programming, but no problems now.

puppy grows
We purchased the puppy grows for our granddaughter's 3rd birthday. It was a hit with her. She named it Princess and was excited that the puppy could say it's own name and also my granddaughter's name. It has become one of her favorite toys.

Jo Jo does the trick!
My daughter just turned 5 years old and was expecting a "real" dog for her birthday. With our schedule it is just impossible to take care of a puppy. So, we bought this for her. She was excited when she saw the puppy, but when the dog said her name she almost passed out. Not to mention what happened when the puppy began to grow. Needless to say, she has forgotten all about the "real" dog, at least for now.

Wish the disc worked....but still cute
We tried using the software for this product and could never get it to work. But it is a cute puppy and my daughter likes it. Though she has gotten tired of it - and it is only 5 months after she got it.
