In a nutshell:
The ultimate evolution of virtual pet: Nintendogs gives you opportunity to preen and look after a selection of cute puppies in a virtual home, with virtual currency, where you can buy toys and accessories for their enjoyment. You can clean the pups, feed them, walk them, play catch with them, and even talk to them.

You can clean the pups, feed them, walk them, play catch with them, and even talk to them.
The lowdown:
Nintendogs is brimming with character. Each pup looks out from the DS touchscreen and paws longingly. You can respond to your virtual pet's need of attention by stroking the screen, using items such as balls and brushes with the aid of the stylus, and talking to your dogs through the DS's inbuilt microphone system. Impressive 3D graphics give lifelike animation to these canine wonders.
Most exciting moment:
After a few attempts to speak commands into the microphone, your puppy understands the meaning of "sit", barks approval, and sits down. It's good to talk.
Since you ask:
You can keep three pups in your home at any time. When left to their own devices, they'll play and play-fight together. And they call this 'puppy love'.
The bottom line:
A Nintendog is not just for Christmas.

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Nintendogs Labrador Retriever & Friends (Nintendo DS) (Video Game)
I bought this game as i liked the idea of having a virtual dog and having a DS i was yet to find game i was really hooked on, it all changed after i bought this game! It is highly addictive, with lots to do such as bathing your pet, feeding, water, training for shows and taking them out for walks to find new exciting items, will keep you occupied for hours!
Training your dog is very realistic, such aa teaching them commands you have to be patient! - you indicate what you want them to do then say the command into the microphone then after a few goes, depending on the dog, (some take longer to learn things) they learn what to do so it's all up to them to perform the right tricks at the dog show! The more time you spend with them, the more they will earn at dog shows if the place 3rd 2nd or even 1st if you've done really well! My favourite aspect to the game is taking them out on walks your dogs can find you little presents which can be something useful like a new style of collar or a new toy, or something totally random like a meteorite! and anything you dont need can be sold at the secondhand shop for cash - like the meteorite gets $150! So more cash to buy new dogs. Overall i highly recommend this game, it's great for anyone, i personally think its a very cute fun game you can dip into when you want, though if you leave it a couple of days, like real dogs they are very hungry and thirsty! - Another side that's quite funny but can be a bit annoying, in the dog shows you have to repeat the commands and make your dog do them and they have to perform well to score so you do find yourself getting into a bit and yelling ' SIIIIT!!!!' when the dog is just stood there looking at you sweetly with the timers ticking! So make sure there's no-one around to give you funny looks! Highly recommended, a definite must for any animal lover or those wanting their own dog and wanting to experience it, it's as real as youre going to get!

Excellent!,

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Nintendogs Labrador Retriever & Friends (Nintendo DS) (Video Game)
I got this for my 8 year old daughter when it first came out. She is still really into it, so that must be a good sign! I'm a cruel mummy, and wont get her a real dog, so she has to make do with this! She now has about 5 dogs on the go on this game, and has them all trained up and coming first in all the contests...
Its a really great game in my opinion. The graphics are great, and its good that it gets kids to realise that pets need feeding, walking and bathing too. By the time I let her have a real dog, (a long time yet!) she should be a pro!!!!

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Nintendogs Labrador Retriever & Friends (Nintendo DS) (Video Game)
This is a really fun and funny good innovative game.You start off with not much money and you have a choice of about three dogs to choose from.Then you have to buy hair shampooo and brushes for grooming your dog and toys to play with like a frisbee. Then you move into your house into a big spacious living room where your dogs are enterained and live.Then this is where the game starts you get to train your dog in three different ways like learning to catch doing special tricks and obedience.When you tap the screen the dog comes up to you and you can stroke him and he likes it.you can take him for walks to the choice of two parks a quiet one to practise and another to interact with other dogs.Sometimes on out for walks your dog will might bring back a present.when you enter competitios you do it for money and you get graded so make sure your dog is well trained.Everday see your dog make it come to you and an idea will come above his head touch it and you have some time to teach your dog s trick or just sitting.Overall this game is really good and innovative for the industry but once you have done it with your dogs and upgraded there isnt much to do so there isnt much replay value.Still get though its a brilliant game.
