Too short, I wanted it soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo badly, but now I'm going to get rid of it. I's also kind of boring if you think about it.
Toodles!
Could Have Been Rated M For Mature.

I played this game a couple of times today And it's okay for mature content. But I find this REALLY crude for children.
When I heard Jake say: "Woo-hoo! I smell underpants!" it made my stomach turn. It should have been rated M For Mature or A&O For Adults Only.
Don't Buy This!

Although it seems fun, it really is a very boring game. Besides the awful graphics, the pooping and peeing? Really, is that necessary? In the game, the whole point is to find all of the scents(BORING!)and collect all the bones(YAWN)it really has no point to it at all. For the 20.00 I spent my birthday money on this for, it is definitely not worth it. Oh, and about the teen rating, it is for crude humor, and it was a very good reason to put that rating on. Some of the things on here are VERY inappropriate! Don't buy this for your kids!

I think the title of this review made my review. The game is really short! I'm just warning you! Even though it's fun to play around as a dog, it isn't worth $20 for it! It might be worth $5, but it isn't. Trust me. Don't think I'm a conartist, because I'm not. I hope I saved you $20 dollars. Thank you for listening to my warning, even though you probally didn't even believe me, because I heard almost the same exact thing from someone else, and I didn't even bother.

Dog's Life is a game for animal lovers, no doubt. the gaphics are so-so and the humour is cringy, but apart from that it's a pretty good game. the teen rating is totally wrong, and this game is great 4 kids, apart from the cringy jokes.
The dog is cute enough (not as cute as my dog) but the people look like torn out pieces of cardboard of a cornflake box. easy gameplay (took me a day 2 complete) and is chalenging for younger gamers i suppose. I think the teen rating is only because of the dog can pee and poo and fart (eww gross)
overall though a cute, decent game suitable for under 13 year olds I'd say.
Don't Let the Teen Rating Scare You....Good for Kids!

This game is classic! I just bought it, and it cracks me up. The humor is a little off color, hence the Teen rating, but it isn't anything worse than cartoons kids would see on Saturday mornings.
The graphics and sounds are good, and somewhat realistic. The game centers around Jake the dog, whom you direct to complete various tasks to collect bones. The jokes will crack adults up, and kids will like the running around as different kids of dogs.
The key to the game is smell-o-vision, where the view switches to first person and now smells are visible as colored clouds. You need to collect different colored clouds to compete in challenges, like tug of war and peeing competitions! Once you win a competition, you can then play as that breed of dog (e.g. chihuahua, mini-doberman, husky).
At $20, this is s a great game for kids and adults.
Fun, amusing game.

I am a teenager, and I really enjoyed this game. In Dogs Life, you control a dog, Jake, who is trying to find his friend. If you win some of the games, you can control another dog for a limited amount of time. Here are some of the pros and cons of the game:
Pros:
*easy to move Jake around.
*if you are bored, you can always collect smells
*you can meet and talk to different people
*you can use or not use a memory card and it is fun both ways
Cons:
*is not really that inappropriate to be rated teen
*you sometimes have to find items for someone like eggs or batteries and that can get a little tiresome.

I think it will be a good game. I think it will be cool because you can poop and sniff also mark your spot anywhere. I know it will be good to poop and pee anywhere you want.
Great!!!!

This game is the best game I have ever had! Don't worry about the Teen rating. Its very fun. The only problem is, you can't pick what dog you can be. When the game starts, you just end up controling that Jake dog. The other thing that I'm annoyed at, is that my 6 year old sister wants to play badly. Why can't this game be for 2 players so that I can verse my sister at mini games?! Howerver, the game is still is very fun.
