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.

Oh for fuck sake.

"Barbie takes this kind of fun very seriously."

Confused
DangerousBeanz · 03/11/2014 21:09

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?

BlinkAndMiss · 03/11/2014 21:11

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!

DangerousBeanz · 03/11/2014 21:30

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.

WitchWay · 03/11/2014 21:44

That is awful Confused

gentlehoney · 03/11/2014 21:52

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

Oh. Hang on.... Hmm

TheBatteriesHaveRunOut · 03/11/2014 21:53

omg

Mattel are literally selling us shit.

Alisvolatpropiis · 03/11/2014 21:53

When you put it like that op...

I'd get her a different Barbie Grin

Failedspinster · 03/11/2014 21:55

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.

whyhasmyheadgonenumb · 03/11/2014 22:01

My DD wants this too, it's £22 quid so unfortunately Father Christmas has run out.....

nicky2512 · 03/11/2014 22:03

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!

nicky2512 · 03/11/2014 22:03

off to look for it!

NoArmaniNoPunani · 03/11/2014 22:05

Get a lammily instead, much healthier proportions than Barbie

www.lammily.com

DangerousBeanz · 03/11/2014 22:23

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.

DangerousBeanz · 03/11/2014 22:36

nicky2512 was it this one? Old Crapping Dog It's worth a fortune!!! I might get DD about 10 of the new ones as an investment.

Hopingforpeace · 03/11/2014 22:41

I saw an ad for this in the morning. No way would I be buying that. Yuck.

LuckySaint · 03/11/2014 22:59

Ds1 (10) had the old crapping dog and Barbie. He loved it, it was quite funny.
I soon hoovered the poo pellets up though
