3 out of 5 stars Dog loses leg   March 31, 2009

This is a cute set but the Mama dog's leg came loose in the first week and lost it in the second. I saw another set at the childcare place where my kids go and same leg was off on that one.


4 out of 5 stars "Mama Dog"   March 24, 2009
Linda J. Stuesser (Middleton, WI)
My granddaughters decided that this is a "Mama dog". They love the magnetic ability of the Mama to hold her baby and also the bottle that holds water. Lots of play value here.


5 out of 5 stars My niece loves it   January 19, 2009
S. Aponte (Long Island, NY)
I can't say I have much experience with this toy but my niece loves it! She is 4 years old and can't get enough of the doll and dogs.


5 out of 5 stars Barbie and dog-lovers fun..   January 8, 2009
Brenda Hodge (Portland, OR US)
Our 6 yr old daughter thought this gift was great. She LOVES Barbies and dogs, so we couldn't go wrong. She has had no complaints and for some reason, loves to make the one puppy go potty.. too funny! Decent doll and dogs and doll seem to be holding up well.


5 out of 5 stars Great product - BUT BEWARE of Amazon shipping bait and switch   January 2, 2009

My 4 year old is puppy crazy. She LOVES this toy and plays with the set almost daily. Got a great price on Amazon and it was available when no one else had it in stock.

Now onto MY RANT about Amazon shipping practices...

The Rock Band order fiasco. I found Rock Band for PS2 in local stores for $150 or more. I decided to check Amazon and was please to see that it was $99. SCORE - and with Prime, I would get it OVERNIGHT for only $3.99 more. I ordered Rock Band on December 27th through Amazon prime. I paid the extra money for the "OVERNIGHT" shipping option so that it would arrive BEFORE New Years Eve (as it was planned for a party). It was scheduled to arrive on Tuesday December 30th (since the order took place over the weekend)which would have left PLENTY of time.

HOWEVER - AMAZON's useless shipping department did not send this package overnight-as I paid for. They instead decided that UPS ground would suffice since it was shipping within the same zone. HERE is the problem with this fraudulent practice - UPS, like any other shipper prioritizes it packages based on actual shipping service purchased. Since this item was a GROUND package, it sat on the truck ALL day and ultimately was returned to the distribution center AFTER 7:00 PM. Also, since it was GROUND, it did not go out for delivery on the following day (12/31) since this was a limited service day for air packages only. AGAIN, if Amazon had shipped it properly, it would have been delivered on 12/31. REMEMBER I PAID for OVERNIGHT service.

I was able to prove this shipping problem was caused by Amazons practice of not properly handling a shipment, based on another order. The second order was also place with Amazon prime on MONDAY 12/29. Since it was not urgent, I opted for the FREE 2nd Day delivery. That package actually shipped via 2nd day air (as expected) and due to class of serivce (air) it was delivered on 12/31 (the holiday). It is now FRIDAY 1/2 and I still have not yet rec'd my Rock Band order. IT WILL BE REFUSED WHENEVER IT IS FINALLY DELIVERED as I bought the exact same product from Walmart on Wednesday morning for the SAME PRICE.

I complained to Amazon about this and the best they would do is refund my shipping and offer me $5.00 off my NEXT purchase. Why would I purchase from them again after this terrible experience.

In summary - BEWARE OF THE SHIPPING Bait and Switch! Use Amazon's site for your research and customer reviews. If you like the item and want to buy it, see if you can get it local for the same deal - if so TAKE IT. Don't trust Amazon's shipping dept. or expect good customer service! If they keep this up - they will go the way of SO MANY companies today and be gone in a heartbeat.
