Tiny bit mighty!
1) requires 2 AA batteries and they are not included. If for a gift, keep that in mind! You will have to open the box and battery casement if you want to install. You will also need a micro screwdriver or eyeglass kit to open the door as well. This is a good thing, because the batteries will stay in once placed.2) There is an on/off switch. Mine was received "on" which didn't matter because there were no batteries.3) the size is perfect for a small gift. It's one of the smaller plush toys that is battery operated, most are much bigger. And tiny plushies don't usually have this capability which is nice. This is important if shipping because it will fit in a small box to send.4) the face is adorable with expressive eyes, a realistic looking nose, and open mouth with pink tongue. Very cute.5) it is soft, but NOT fluffy or cuddly. It is battery operated so not meant for toddlers. It says not for under 3 because of choking hazard, but it seems more like not for under 6 or 7 only because it would break easily if encountered by an overzealous child. Under 3 is for the small parts and miniscule screw attached. If your child can respect it is not something to be thrown or hit (it is also an animal after all!), then it should last as long as the replaced batteries do - over and over.6) "collect them all" means there are PawPals of: Chi Chi the Chihuahua (item no. 3160, Barney the Beagle, Redley the Retriever, Dottie the Dachshund, and Pete the Pedigree (whatever that means in the scheme of things).7) box is dated 6/1/23 Made in China and put out by Westminster, Inc in ATL, GA.Bottom line- everyone of all ages can enjoy this as a collectible, novelty item, or toy. Even your fellow pets with be mesmerized or annoyed. Just fair warning that a toddler, active child or animal could destroy this easily and/or choke if not monitored or used correctly (Screw, eyes, nose, small bandana, plastic battery cover and button, etc could be dangerous if torn off, swallowed, etc).8) dogs are all unisex and walk, bark, wag tail. Older children could add appropriately sized clothing if desired, but there aren't buyable outfits. You'd need to get creative.9) price is appropriately valued and item comes in a small viewable box so presentation is gift worthy10) buy it, you won't regret the cuteness. It's on your bingo card for 2024.

I actually bought this toy as a gift from my Chihuahua. She loves toys that move and barks.. It’s a great size. Very good quality.

Great For The Price!
My daughter is crazy for chihuahuas and we could not get her a real one. We already own a real dog. So when I saw this little guy at Amazon.com, I knew she would love it. Despite of some negative reviews, I still purchased it - and as long as she doesn't keep it on for too long, it is still going strong. No faults yet. It is absolutely adorable, and even if it eventually stops barking, she can still play with it. I definetely recommend it!

A loyal companion
I bought this for my 2 year old son for Christmas. He already loves dogs and while we have stuffed animals he doesn't connect with them. When he opened it he lit up, hugged the box and was happier than I had ever seen him. He was even more excited when he saw it walks and barks (really squeaky toots). The fur is very soft and if you hold it when it moves it even feels like it is wiggling similar to a puppy. He carried it everywhere, played with it all day and still spends time with it regularly. He takes it to bed and sleeps holding it sometimes. I can tell when he wakes up because he turns it on and we hear the squeaking in the morning.We have only had two issues, but they are nothing to do with the quality or design.1. He and his brother were playing rough throwing stuffed animals one morning and he threw it out of his crib. A piece inside the mouth that aligned the jaw broke when it hit the floor so it looks like it had a stroke. I was more disappointed than he was.2. We rescued a dog from a shelter around the same time and he gets into a frenzy when he hears/sees it moving. It's really attractive to dogs since it sounds like a squeaky toy. We are doing everything we can to keep them apart.Overall he absolutely loves it. I highly recommend it for any kid that loves dogs and it could be a good substitute for a real dog for younger kids where circumstances/allergies/concen about them being knocked down or stepped on by a dog are issues.

Hilarious and fun for other puppies (real ones)
We bought this for our puppy to play with. Her reaction was priceless. Barking, pouncing, inquisitive stares and finally dragging it to her bed (we took it away at that time to play with later).Scoots along nicely and makes the little yip yip sound as it shuffles across the floor. We used this on hardwood floors, so not sure how it would work on carpet.A great little novelty and fun for the whole family (as we watched the puppy play with it).Fair price, fast shipping.

At least my child will be happy.: )
My daughter is very much hoping for this at Christmas. I can't wait to see her face when she open it. It's very small for the price. Paying more for the name than what the product actually does. I know I could of got a toy dog that goes these actions and flips over, for less than half the price. But my daughter really wants chi chi the chihuahua. Was just a bit shocked to have to pay just over £40 for a little machnical toy. At least my child will be happy. :)
