Works. When your little one pets her new little buddy’s head or waves at him, he'll jump up and bark just like an excitable little pup. If your kid pets the back of this electronic plush dog, he’ll sit like a good boy. He will always be ready for fun and he'll always be as bouncy as can be when your child comes around. This stuffed dog that barks has a beige body with a brown snout and brown ears.
