Product Description
You can name your puppy using your voice and then call her name to make her appear. Your Puppy needs praise and attention to grow, and make sure you feed and walk her everyday. As puppy grows you can start playing games. Once fully grown she can enter dog shows and win ribbons! This is the first virtual pet girls can raise, train and love with their voice using voice recognition technology. Your adopted puppy only responds to the sound of your voice, Teach puppies tricks like sit, rollover and dance and play maze games to help challenge and train the puppy. The older she gets, the more levels of interaction become available.

 Not very good at all November 27, 2008
Charles Gosling (Brighton, England)
I bought this for my daughter as a "fun" gift. It is anything but. The password facility is infuriatingly unreliable. IE you may set up a password but try as you might it won't work afterwards unless you manage to recreate the exact tone of voice you used originally - not easy. I can't really say how it is to play with the puppy as my daughter got so frustrated with the password that she gave up playing with it.
Other than this the thing looks like it is supposed to have an alarm clock on it, this certainly didn't work though.
Not a toy I would recommend to anyone.

My daughter (8) got password puppies for christmas.
We have at times struggled with the voice recognition, but you get more used to it over time. She wanted to call her puppy Millie, to register a name you have to say its name exactly the same twice and then again every time you turn it on. (a little frustrating, I didn't realise there were so many ways to say Millie) However the rest of the voice recognition is good and trying other names might be easier.
To make your puppy grow, you have to feed it 3 times, walk it twice and praise it 3 times in a day. Once you reach full grown there are no more limits to how often you can feed and walk your puppy which is much better for children. There are also games for your puppy, tricks to teach it and then pet shows to compete in.
If you don't want a real puppy its a lovely way for children to be able to look after their own pet.
The only downside is that when the batteries run out and you need to change them you have to start from scratch with a new puppy. We've only changed the batteries once though and that was to put new ones in before a holiday not because they'd run out so they do last a long time.
Overall I'd give 4stars because of the difficulties with naming, but my daughter says she would still give it 5stars even so.
Well worth the money!
