Nintendogs by DS

Do any of your children have the Nintendo DS? They have a game called nintendogs, I'm not sure exactly what its about, but they have a cute little boxer "character". I might just have to go buy a Nintendo DS, or talk my nephew into one for Christmas

Thumbs up

OK, even if you don't buy the game, visit the website - too cute! It is like a kennel club and you can see previews of the game. Wish I had a kid to buy it for!

Unhappy fighting dog? Very disappointed!

Just went to the website because I was thinking it might be creeping onto the Christmas list this year. Really cute but I'm so very disappointed in the description of the boxer. It says "the boxers muscular frame was used to it's advantage as a fighting dog". What????? Imagine all those children who are going to have the wrong idea about our sweet natured boxers!

I've just written the customer service department of Nintendo to voice my dismay at their incorrect and misleading description of the boxer. I really don't want children growing up to think that this breed was designed for fighting. It makes my stomach turn just thinking about it.
