Don't listen to that other guy

Do not listen to that other kid who says nintendogs is ridicoulous and pointless. Listen to the other 99% of the people that see that nintendogs is FUN. And I do believe raising a dog does require skill.

The graphics on this game are SUPERDYDUPER. Your dog looks alot like a dog, and all your stuff looks like what it's supposed to.

Basically, you buy a dog and then you take care of him/her. You can take them on walks, enter them in contests, give them baths, dress them in assorted accesories, sell your unwanted stuff, and buy other stuff. You must teach your dog their name and then how to sit. My only complaint is that your dog will sometimes forget their name.

Now, if you have a real puppy, would you agree it takes skill to raise? Same with this dog.

THIS GAME IS GREAT!

this game is wonderful , i have got it for christmas and love it . Me and my cousin have it and we love leting our dogs play together in bark mode! It's just like a real dog, you have to bathe it , brush it , take it for walks, play with it , go shopping for Ex: water, food , treats , toys, collars, milk , and some times they get new stuff in ! Id like to say that when you first get the game you will pick a dog out and then take him home .... after awhile you will be asked to say the dogs name ... if your dog learns it and then forgets .. ITS OK! i had to do it like 10 time into my dog got it! Also once you teach it sit then the real game begins bc you wont be able to go out or anything into you teach it sit and it's name . there are contest to go into and more dogs to unlock !

~ If you cant have a dog because of medical reasons then this is the game for you , and for any other person IT'S GREAT!

Nintendo Has Done it Again!

I got Nintendogs about a month ago, and I must say that it has become one of my favorites for my DS. This game is such an irresistably adorable experience, and I am quite sure that anyone my age would enjoy it. Not only is it fun, but it also teaches responsibility.

Bear in mind that if you are waiting for a PSP version, you are wasting your time. Nintendo and Sony are the largest rivals on the game-market, and the day my Nintendogs fly will be the day that Sony gets a liscense to recreate Nintendogs. Besides this, the PSP lacks a touch screen and a microphone, two essential resources for Nintendogs.

This is one of the best games I have seen for the DS, and I reccomend it for everyone! Thank You!

This game is the best nintendo game ever, as a teen, I enjoy this great game. the graphics are real like! you can teach your dogs tricks with voice command. enter agility, obediance, and disc ( frisbee) compettitions. Take a walk to the park, go to the store, practice agility, and even meet others on nintendogs by "bark mode" where you and another persons dog can play together. #1 BEFORE YOU BUY EITHER dauchson dalmation, lab or chiuaua, check out the already unocked dogs on the back of the box. wich your is your fav. kind of dog and check to see if its on the back of any nintendogs case. Dalmation one is the only one that has dalmation, although if you find a firemans hat on the walks, you will be able to buy dalmations. So, I consider you getting the dalmations one, because i have been playing for 2 years nintendogs, and still havent unlocked the dalmation.

Totally Fun!!

This is a great game, no doubt about it. It is very fun. You can choose from six different breeds and pesonalites. You can take your dog on walks and train it for agility and disk\frisbee competions. You can accessorize your dog with bows, hats, collars, and sunglasses. You can win money by entering and winning
contests. You can buy food and water for your dog, wash, and bath him or her. Your dog loves to be played with or rubbed. You gradually get more items and accessories as the game goes on. There is no end to the game, nor do the dogs ever die or grow. You can have up to eight dogs.The graphics are wonderful and clear!! Also you always use the stylis. This a great game and I own it! I almost forgot, you get trainer points the more you win contests and every 2,000 points you get a new breed in your kennel!! You can collect every breed from every nintendogs game!!!!! My sister has a nintendogs too and wants another one so she can own even more dogs!! I highly recommend this game!!!

Better than any other virtual pet game. . . .

Nintendogs isn't like Puppylove, Dogz, or anthing else like that. You teach your dogs how to do tricks on command, enter them in GREAT contents, bathe them, brush them, feed them, take them on walks (where you can play with other neighborhood dogs, find fabulous surprises, or even a broken disposeable camera, and train for disc and agility.), and.... so much more!!
the graphics are awsome. my four puppies look as real as if someone took a pictures of a Shih Tzu, Husky, Shiba, and Cavalier then animated them. it's great. this game totally brings out all the potential of the DS in every way that makes it unique. You can call ur dog and teach it all sorts of tricks with your voice, and it will respond to u and only u. you can pet ur puppy and guide it along an agility course with the stylus on the touch sreen.
There are four versions of nintendogs, Chihuahua, Dashund, Lab, and Dalmation. Each version starts you off with six breeds to choose from and different special items that u can find on walks. You can unlock every breed on your own by earining trainer points (u earn those by entering contests, going on walks, teaching new tricks, etc.), but the special items can be unlocked by going on Bark Mode with ppl who have different versions. You can also unlock one breed from each person u go into Bark Mode with, too. Example, If they have a Corgi on Bark Mode, and you haven't unlocked that breed yet, then it will become available to u. and Vice Versa. So basically EVERYTHING in all of Nintendogs can become available to u.

This game is absolutely gtreat. I can understand how some ppl would get bored of it, but those are also probbably ppl who could get bored or tired of a real pet, too. Go on, give it a try!

Fun but could get tedious for some

Nintendogs is a cute game that any dog lover could appreciate. Where else can an average person have up to five dogs at once and still live a normal life?

Once you get the hang of it the training for the dogs is a breeze, although I may just be picking the right dogs. The animation is fairly realistic as far as animal games go.

The contest options are also fun. The disc competition is my favorite as it doesn't require you to speak perfectly, like the obedience competition, and the dogs seem to catch on quicker than they do with the agility competitions. Regardless, all three modes can be a fun way to earn more money to pamper your dogs and upgrade your living environment. I'm currently saving up for the most expensive home style.

As you train your dogs, you also earn trainer points which unlock different dog breeds in the kennel. This is also a fun option, leaving you plenty of choices when choosing a new dog.

My only dislike, however, is that Nintendogs runs on real time based on the clock option in your DS, making it a necessity to play every day if you want to keep your dogs happy while continuing to train them. If one's leisure time is limited, this could become an issue. Sometimes you have to neglect your dogs if you want/need to do other things, possibly leading to runaway dogs or who knows what else.

Great for kids, good for adults too!

This would be a terrific game for kids--it's good fun, easy to master, and sneaks in some educational lessons on responsibility. That said, I'm an adult and I like it too! It's a little simplistic, but the puppies are cute and since I live in an apartment where I can't have a real pet, this is a nice alternative. Plus you get to take it for walks without getting off the couch, and all you have to do to clean up its poop is tap it with the stylus! If that's not a perfect pet, what is? The one downside is that if you want your puppy to stay with you, you have to make time to feed and walk and play with it even when your schedule gets busy, but I guess that's good practice for raising a real puppy too.

My Favorite Game

Nintendo DS Nintendogs Dachshund & Friends
This is my favorite nintendo ds game ever! I love playing it on my friends ds because I can't get on until my birthday. My friend has lab and friends dalmatian and friends and dachshund and friends. I don't know why she has to buy all three because you can only have one if you want to because you can buy all the breeds once you get enough trainer points.I also finally figured out how to walk your dog for a long distance.There is the meter thingy and it shows you how much energy your dog has and if it's meter runs down quickly that means that your dog is tired or depressed. Overall I love this game as I said before.I have a mini dachshund that looks just like the dachshund on the cover,and her name is maggie I love all the dog breeds on the game and hopefully I can get this game for my birthday until then I'll just keep on playing my friend's ds.

Contrary to Popular Belief...

There is one statement going around about Nintendogs that isn't true. It is a popular belief that you can only unlock new breeds in your game if you connect wirelessly with another gamer player, who has a different edition of the game. This is untrue.

Every time your trainer points increase to a certain amount, you unlock a new breed. A new breed is added to the kennel, for example, when you reach 2,000 trainer points, and again when you reach 4,000.
