   UPDATE: Oh, the poor little Bandit! Bandit has been Bingo’s security blanket, humping companion, BFF, and “only other dog in the house” until we got a real-live lifewire little dog, Doobie, who is a Jack Chi. Doobie is one high-energy chewing fool. Doobie has gotten up inside of Bandit and pulled his guts out of his butt and also chewed his eyes out, leaving holes. Bingo is not happy and so is trying to tug his dear Bandit away from Doobie, so I knew Bandit was not going to be long for the world. I ordered a new Bandit for Bingo, and he is thrilled, but I’m going to have to put him up until Doobie is over his puppy stage. But this Bandit racoon puppet is a fantastic purchase for a little dog.ORIGINAL REVIEW: Move over Gator. Hit the box, Fox. Bandit has arrived.Our 10-week-old Chiweenie puppy wants to bite-shake play, and even though he’s careful not to be too vicious with DH’s hand, he was breaking the skin. I got this puppet as a way to protect us from those sharp little puppy teeth.Bingo went nuts for Bandit, and we did, too. On my hand, I don’t like the fit on my thumb, which tends to slide out of the arm, but it seems to be fine on DH’s larger hand. I just lift Bandit by the back and march him up and down, and the puppet is floppy enough, but also firm enough, to seem like a living critter.I can’t emphasize enough how nice the contrast between his nose and white snout is. When we say “bite his nose,” he goes right for that little black nose. The nose and the eyes are sewn in very well so I don’t worry so much about our dog pulling them off and choking them. Another thing really nice about this puppet is that it has some movement to it even when we are not assisting him in playing with it. He will pick it up and shake it, carry it around like it’s his prize possession (which is funny, because it’s bigger than he is), and put it in his “room” (a small rug) with his collection of squirrels and such.UPDATE: Oh, Bandit is such a hit! Bingo sleeps with Bandit, pees on Bandit, madly humps Bandit, chases him all over the house when we throw him, carries him proudly to show “Bingo too” in the mirror, jumps up into the back of the loveseat in the living room with Bandit so Bandit can look out the window with Bingo at the neighbors passing by. Bandit has had to go in the washing machine quite a few times now, and with vicious chiweenie tug-of-war play, poor Bandit’s scalp is starting to come unsewn. I can sew him up by hand and he’ll be fine, but I’m already thinking I’d better get another Bandit to have on hand for when Bingo’s BFF is in complete shreds! Bandit has shrunk some with washing, so it’s hard to get a large adult hand into him, but he’s still more than doing his job. He and Bingo now are about the same size. Bingo’s eight months old and seven pounds.

   Fishy was a great friend this summer. Fishy helped a little two year old get excited to use the potty! Because Fishy loved potties! He’s a dog! They Smell greeeeat to him!The girls older sister loved diving for Fishy to deliver his catch phrase, too.Seriously, if your kid likes dogs and has toilet aversion–this cheap dog puppet will abolish shame and make it fun!!

   I have a little Chorkie that loves to play with my hand so I decided to get a dog for her to play with instead. She loves playing with this puppet on my hand. I did cut the strings that held the ears against his head to give him the ability to flop his ears. I really wonder if she knows it’s not another dog.

   This is a very nice puppet. I bought it because my granddaughter wanted a puppet that she could make “talk”. The puppet itself is nice, but it is very hard to get the beak to move.
