Is this puppy too advanced for a 20 month old toddler to play with?

My daughter got this for Christmas last year when she had just turned 2 the week before. She does love it but using the remote control to "walk" the puppy is not really possible at that age. I now understand why the recommended age is so high. She does still enjoy it and is getting better at walking GoGo. At least she will use it for several years.

I do not think it is too advanced for a one year old. The only concern would be to be careful not to sit/step on the garages as they are cardboard (heavy).Our little 18 mo. grandson loved this toy.

I bought it for a 6 month old. She very soon learned to crawl off it. I imagine it would be most fun at a slightly older age when it would begin to have meaning for the child.

I think its up to the kid, I don't think its too young I bought it for my nephew when he was 2 yrs old and he still plays with it

Depending on how young the children are. My 20 month old can play in it with a couple friends. But it is pretty small.

I think so & our 16 month old still enjoys it. At 6 months he didn't play with it quite as much, only pushed the horn. Each month he played with more of the buttons & now can turn the key

YES!! I think it depends on the child both my 18 month old and 4 year old play with these.. I think its a toy that grows with the child. Even if he didnt enjoy it now you can bring it out a few months later and im sure he'll LOVE IT

it kinda does especially for a little one but I guess you can always help him. Believe me, the toy has more fun than inconviniences. Eventually, he´ll develop the skill to not drop it. I bought it for my 18 month old ( she´s 26 months now ) and I´m super happy with it. Enjoy!

My great grandson was 20 months when I gave this to him. He has a ball with it and one of his favorites. It is a safe toy for this age. He is now 2 1/2 and still loves it.

My 18 month old plays with this every day but, of course, she's very advanced! I'd say 2 - 5 year olds for sure.

Christmas present? I use it in therapy (I am a speech pathologist) with kids as young as 3, but I think you could use it with 2 year olds. 18 months might be a bit young as they may just want to put it in their mouths. It depends on the kid though. If you think the kid is really sharp then try it. If the child will be monitored while they play (you faciltate it) they may have fun with it, but 18 month olds don't really get the concept of toppings yet. So to sum up, I would wait until they are a bit older. Up to you.

Yes, this is a wonderful toy for those that can't have a real dog yet. I got this for my 4 year old granddaughter and the two one year olds were interested in it as well. This should be perfect for your 2-1/2 year old. It will bark in the package if you walk by it so keep it hidden. It is a cute toy.

I think you would be better off going with another toy. This one might not interest a 2 1/2 year old.

It's probably good and durable if you can get her interested in it. Mine are still a bit reluctant, unless I play with them with this toy. But great for bouncing it around and have them bring it back to you or wrestle over it!

I think they're too young for it,plus my girl doesn't pay much attention to it. She likes the round wooden toy with the holes that you put in treats, then close them up with either a sliding cover or a block that fits in the hole. It's on Amazon too.

The mini is NOT too small for a 20 lb. dog. I bought the larger cube when my poodles got older, and it is my opinion that the big one is too big for almost any dog. My "boys"' would still use it now, but I have 3 of them, and they would fight over it. The mini is suitable for any age or size dog, unless it's a giant breed. It's the best dog toy I've ever found. the first one, now 12 years old is still being used by a friend's dog.

I got it for my daughter when she was about 18 months. She's nearly two now and still plays with it. I'm guessing she will get tired of it by the time she is three.
