Ruko - Remote Control Mini Robotic Dog Toy,Smart Interactive Stunt Robot Pet for Kids,Birthday & Christmas Gifts for Boys - Black

I got this Ruko remote control mini smart robot dog for my son, Onyx, and it completely exceeded my expectations. The feature set on this thing is unbelievable for the price. It does full flips, rolls over, and dances around with great sound effects and movement. The dual-control options are what really set it apart—you can use the standard remote control, or wear the gesture wristband so the dog follows your hand movements wherever you point. The battery life holds up surprisingly well during long play sessions, and the build quality feels solid enough to handle kids playing hard. Seeing all the tricks it pulls off makes this an absolute winner. Easily 5 stars

This thing can do more than just walk around. My son can't stop playing with it. The hand gesture control option is a neat option as well as touch. It completely surprised me with its ability to roll over and other programable stunts. It has not run out of battery power on me yet so not sure how long the battery will last but it is a long time. My son has been pretty rough on it too and not broken it yet.

I was looking for a cool toy for my little boys birthday and came across this. He loves it. It's easy to use and does a lot of funny moves. It has two different style remotes. I like the classic style but my son prefers the hand gesture one. The charge last for a good amount of time and it feels solid in your hand. Im glad I got him this. It s so cool.

Years ago I bought Ruko's original robot dog for my then 10 year old daughter. I remember scouring every store for it because it just flew off the shelves. This 'update' is a fun new take on the idea. Instead of the cutesy, but limited dog shaped robot this one packs more ideas into a less obviously canine form. It's definitely more cyber than puppy. The 'dog' comes well packaged - this feels like a quality item where they've thought about the unboxing experience. The controller is fairly lightweight without any batteries in it, but the dog itself feels well made and robust (the original dog always felt a little more delicate, but this one will stand up to some rough play I think). The cool thing is that you have three different ways of controlling it: you can touch the sensor on the dog itself, there's a wrist controller and a separate remote control. The latter seems to provide the best ease of use in my opinion - I think the wrist controller might be more fun for smaller children though as for them it'll be more intuitive. The robot has lots of features: from the basic-but-amusing-to-an-8-year-old "raise your leg and pee" to swimming and dancing and flipping. A cool feature that I haven't seen before is that it has a story telling mode where the doc will, well, tell you a story. All in all I think any small child will have a lot of fun with this.

This toy is so much fun for kids. My toddler plays with it daily. It also keeps our baby entertained by being ticklish when being touched, chasing the dog when we use the controller to make it walk… It is a great gift. It has different engagements like kung fu, story mode, stunts, dance, even potty… It’s like a RC car and a pet mixed together
