Spin Master has released a new $99 robotic canine companion for children. The company claims that the dog is “most technologically advanced robotic dog ever made” and, though it falls somewhat short of this description, it is certainly an entertaining toy.
My dog, Zoomer, doesn’t listen. He sticks his shiny black nose where it doesn’t belong, is always bumping into things and has a habit of peeing where I don’t want him to. Still, when he rolls around on his four paws I am more than a little charmed by his impish nature and can’t help but be a little sad when he runs out of power and falls asleep.
