I bought it the day it was released and returned it within a month. I loved having my own dog cause I live in an apartment block and pets arent allowed, but the fact that it remained a puppy was annoying. People saying its so realitic, it may be, but dogs grow older and eventually pass on. Of course Nintendo wouldnt do that, but the dog could have grown into a bigger dog after afew months.

Also when you chose its name and give it commands, it has to be in a quiet enviroment, which is annoying. I hated leaving my dog wjen I went to uni, but I was happy when I came back to see him, Charlie the beagel (sp). Actually my boyfriend got a NTSC Lab version from work, I may keep it instead of selling it!
