I think this is a great way to teach kids the responsibilities owning a dog brings. Hopefully it will encourage kids to treat dogs in the way they should be, rather than the neglect and ill treatment we have (depressingly so) seen such a lot of recently. Well done Nintendo. Also, I'm not surprised a Shiba Inu is one of the first dogs - after all, they are very common in Japan, so a bit of "fame" for my breed as well.

i've got & it does get a bit boring, it dosn't matter wich one you get as you can unlock all the breeds. i was disapointed there wasnt any greyhounds,or bulldogs though.

i bet theres no staffies or bull beeds, yet staffs are on of the most popular dogs!

What no cocker spaniel? Sulks
