Barbie with crapping dog Why???just why?? the whole point of having a toy one is so that you don't need to do this? It's my daughters first Barbie request and i'm mortified.

That's what I said when My OH told me. There is also a pissing cat complete with litter tray.

Suppose it teaches children about the responsibilty of having often desired pets?

What a vile toy, if can even be classed as a toy. Very OTT.

meh. doesn't it introduce the responsiblity involved in having a pet? might put them off nagging you for a dog for a while!

No it introduces the possibility of tiny plastic pellets of poo lost on the floor, blocking the vac and demands to be bought more poo cos she's lost it. I can't see any redeeming features in a toy that craps on the carpet.

I'm glad to see Barbie taking some responsibility. I always had her down as being a bit feckless.

Nice to see Barbie in sturdy flat dog-walking shoes.

No, I agree - its minging! That said, a lot of toys and games advertised on Milkshake in the mornings seem to be a bit minging. Personally the Gooey Louie ad gives me the dry boak.

Its not new. Barbie had a pooing dog years ago. DD (nearly 13) had one when she was little (bought by her Granny). She loved it!

Get a lammily instead, much healthier proportions than Barbie

I think Lammily is much better, but I fear my daughter really wants the shitting dog.

Gooey Looey's 'brain' looks rather unfortunately like something Ann Summers sells.

I soon hoovered the poo pellets up though
