My daughter loves this game,,,,she is 10 and checks on her pets everyday, waters them, feeds them and shows them. It does teach some responsibility.

This is the first game I bought my daughter (8) to go with her new nintendo ds lite that she received for Christmas. I have tried the game myself. It really is great: it is entertaining but also a good "learning" tool (know your dog breeds, handling your money). I don't want to be sexist but it does, however, seem more to be a game for girls (my son (7) has yet to show any interest, preferring Mario).

My seven year old daughter can't get enough of this game. We have had the game at least a month now and she plays non stop. First game my daughter has played, out of about a dozen, that she can't put down.

My daughter loves this game and loves all the cute puppies - as any child would. The only complain I have is that the packaging was not as shown in the picture here at Amazon. It did not have the "Limited Edition" logo as shown.

I bought this game for my 11-year old daughter. She absolutely loves it, and I can see why. The graphics are beautiful. She says, "It's really cool, especially how you can unlock every breed in every version. One of my dogs has made it up to the championship." Her dad and I are very conservative when it comes to electronic games for our daughter; this is one we can feel really good about.

it's a cute looking game but my child and i find it quite difficult would recomend it more for a pre teen than under 10. it takes quite a bit of patience and seems to be to close to really training a dog.great game to buy if your child is asking for a pet so they can get the experience

Neat game - and the progressive nature of it is pretty cool - you can teach your dog tricks and play games with them to get them better at competing in certain events.

I bought the Dachshund version at first because I have 4 Longhaired Dachshunds myself, I LOVE IT! I played it so much that I had all of the other breeds unlocked fairly quickly. The only issue I had is that you have to be VERY carful with the words you choose for your voice commands and speak very clearly into the microphone or the dog will act confused and you have to keep trying. But if that is the worst problem, then that isn't much of a problem to me :) You can unlock all of the breed available in each version but I have every version available just because I like it that much! Now if they would only come out with a version with Rare/Large breeds like the Bernese Mountain Dog (which I also have in real life!), St. Bernard, Great Dane, Irish Wolfhound, and Great Pyrenees! That would be HEAVEN for me!!!!

Bought this game for my daughter and she absolutely loves it. I find myself playing with it every once in a while too.

My little girl loves this so much that I need to set a time limit or else she'll forever be glued to it. It is like having a pet minus the "real" work. Get it for your pet loving kids!

I bought this game for my 9 year old daughter for Christmas and she LOVES it! She spends hours taking care of her dogs, taking them for walks and entering then in "dog shows". She told me this is her favorite gifts this year

My daughter has truly enjoyed playing this game. There is only one note of caution. For those that own other Nintendog games, the dogs in this version may duplicate ones that you already have.
