4 out of 5 stars Great Help for NintenDogs   March 3, 2006
 7 out of 7 found this review helpful

This book was even more helpful than I imagined. It gives you background info. on the dogs and also shows you how to develop your dog into a champion. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is having trouble starting thier Nintendogs game and feels kinda lost.


3 out of 5 stars Attractive book, but not much on the game itself   January 23, 2006
 19 out of 24 found this review helpful

This official Nintendogs guide is a very attractive book featuring profiles of all the breeds in the Nintendogs family of games. Each profile occupies two facing pages and you get two pictures of each breed along with a short description of their origins and characteristics. The second half of the book contains a guide to the game itself. Unfortunately, there's very little hints or tips. The game guide is mostly just an explanation of the various items and features in the game, such as where you can shop for your pup and how much each item costs or is worth when sold. A lot of the information is either obvious (you get discounts at the discount store, duh!) or inaccurate ("You should bathe and brush your pup every day" -- no, you should brush 1-2 times a day, but bathing once a week or two is totally fine, as with real dogs). You won't find any tips on how to make your pup real happy.

So, this book makes a good coffee table book and it's attractive enough to be worth $10 or so. If you are really into the game rather than the dogs themselves, though, you'd do better by checking out the various guides on gamefaqs dot com.



4 out of 5 stars pups:nintendogs guidebook   January 15, 2006
 10 out of 11 found this review helpful

overall this is a really nice book. it gives you an overview of all the puppies (where they originated, etc) and tips on how to care for your new sweetie. i really enjoyed the section on 'puppy problems'(earning money, nutty puppy syndrome, multiple puppy personalities, trick confusion, etc) and pet supplies (an extensive inventory of all the things you can buy or find in the game). i do wish it went over more than the basic tricks though :-) 4 stars.


1 out of 5 stars Don't Waste Your Money   December 24, 2005

First off, half of this book just talks about the actual pups themselves. Then the other half is wasted on informing you on very obvious things. The only thing useful in it is that it tells SOME of the tricks your dogs can do and how to teach them... Just don't bother buying...
