Cookie My Playful Pup

If your children are begging you for a dog but you can’t take on a real one, Cookie My Playful Pup, the latest addition to the Hasbro FurReal Friends collection, is the next best thing! This incredibly life-like toy offers you all the best bits of pet ownership, without any of the mess, smells, chewed furniture or hairs.

Sensors allow Cookie My Playful Pup to respond to tiny hands. She loves being stroked and it always makes her wag her tail and bark! Tell her she’s been a good girl and she’ll reply in doggy speak, thanks to her voice recognition technology. Squeak her pink toy bone and she’ll move her head towards you, all the better to be stroked and petted. Put it to her mouth and she’ll make sure she gives it a proper chew.

Cookie My Playful Pup has a fully poseable body meaning you can put her in a sitting or lying down position.

Your little princess will also love brushing Cookie’s gorgeously soft white hair, and her pink collar and purple bone-shaped name tag.

Suitable for young dog lovers aged four and older, Cookie My Playful Pup is 35cms tall, and the four C batteries she needs come supplied with this product. Priced at around £75, Cookie My Playful Pup is set to be one of this year’s bestselling Christmas toys, and has already been singled out by toy experts Hamleys as a top pick for 2011.

This very special toy is brand new for this Christmas. Judging by the speed at which similar toys have flown off the shelves in recent years, you’d do well to snap one up now.
