Please note that the annoying sound you hear is caused by the "zoom" button of my camera
Pros:
- realistic
- unique and original
- lifetime warranty
- 1 'D' Alkaline battery included in the bundle
Cons:
- smaller than it appears in the advertisments
- you have to look closely to see that it's breathing
- makes weird noise when it breathes
- no ON/OFF switch (you have to get a screwdriver to remove the battery when you want to turn it off)
- the head is not as soft as the rest of the body, and the whole dog could have been even more softer (the plush bed is much softer than the pet itself!)
- moveable ears would have been interesting (why just the tail?)
What I think:
I was thrilled to have the opportunity to review this product as I've been obsessed with it since the first time I saw it.
First of all, it is not stated clearly on the
Perfect Petzzz website wether it's a toy or not, but I would not recommend this for little children. The pet is advertised as "huggable", but it's not that soft (the plush bed is much softer than the pet itself!), and it's not really interactive. I guess after the first few minutes of watching the animal breathing, the kids will be bored. I see this product more as a collectible.
However, I have to say that I've been a little disappointed by this pet. I thought the dog would be bigger - the size of a real golden retriever puppy - but it is so small! This is tricky as you don't get to see the size of the pet clearly in the advertisments. I was also a little disappointed because you can barely see the dog breathing. Don't get me wrong - it does breath, but you have to look closely to see that it's breathing.
Also, this is no big deal to me, but I was surprised to see that there was no ON/OFF switch! Instead of unscrewing the battery's cover everytime I want to turn the pet on or off, I just removed it completely. Another little thing that could be improved: make the ears moveable, just like the tail.
Oh and maybe it's just the pet I received that does that strange noise when it breathes... but it's definitely weird! I don't know how to explain it... it's a little like the noise of two plastic thing rubbing together O_O
But I must acknowledge that this pet is realistic, and the idea of a breathing animal is absolutely great. This dog cheered me up a little after my beloved Balou passed away. It is also great to have included a 1 'D' Alkaline battery the package, but the greatest thing of all: lifetime warranty!
