Title: annoying dog
Product review: My sister-in-law gave this to my daughter for her 1st birthday. The recorded voice on the dog is so cloying and syrupy sweet it can give you cavities just listening to it. Maybe others wouldn't mind that over-eager baby voice because a lot of kid products feature similar voices, but that's not the only problem. The real issue is that there's no way to truly turn it off. If you touch the OFF button on its foot is says "bye bye!" but then if you touch any ear, paw, nose etc. it goes right back into action saying "it's learning time!" or "got my nose, woof woof!" It's NEVER off. There's no turning it off. I've bumped into it crossing the baby's room in the dark after checking her in the night and the dang thing starts playing the "itsy bitsy spider" song at full bore -- of course my child sits up screaming in fright. I think the product is ill-conceived and if you are the sort of person who doesn't appreciate that kiddie voice, it WILL drive you nuts.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
