JOY FOR ALL Ageless Innovation Companion Pet for Seniors - Lifelike Animatronic Dog - Realistic Soft-Touch Coat & Heartbeat - Therapy Stuffed Animal - Toy for Alzheimer's & Dementia - Golden Pup

This little pup has filled a big part of my loved ones heart who is in memory care. It is his constant companion. It is so life like. Truly has filled a gap in his life. Adorable!

My granddaughter is 10 and she loves it….

The media could not be loaded. About 3 months ago we had to put my mom’s 16 year old dog to sleep. My mom was so lonely so I went online to see if there was a fake dog that seems real for people with Alzheimer’s. I found this on Amazon & thought I’d buy it for my mom to see how she’d like it. She absolutely loves her new, low maintenance, doggie. Every time I go to her house, she shows me her and loves talking to her. We say it’s a she and her name is Lilly. I am so happy I bought this for my mom and would highly recommend it!! I did a little video of when I gave it to her to share with my siblings since they couldn’t be there.

Finally, I found the product/puppy I was looking for. I wish it were USB powered and rechargeable.But very cute and motion detection activated is great.

Love this!

**UPDATE2** - As much as I love this dog, I do not recommend getting it. It broke down in less than two months, and the Joy for All support is abysmal. They go from offering me a free pup, nothing needs to be done, they'll just send me one.... then going back to only sending me a free one if I send my current one back. Not only did the Golden Pup break in under two months, the Freckled Pup I ordered broke in under two months, too. Support takes a week or more to get back to you. Only purchase this dog if you plan on barely using it and getting no support and it more than likely breaking within months.-----**UPDATE** - After having this dog for just under two months, it's mostly broken. It doesn't move its head up and down, it doesn't move its mouth, the cheek sensors don't work, the noise sensors barely work. It mostly died then mostly revived, but now is mostly dead again. Fresh batteries have not worked. I'm not sure why it stopped working so quickly, but it's disappointing. Don't expect these to last a long time unless you plan on spending only 5 min with them a day.-----I am in the 30-40 age range, and I suffer from major anxiety and some depression. I've though, for a while, that a dog would help my mental health; however, I am unable to buy a real dog. I spent months going back and forth on whether or not I should buy the Joy For All dog. After all, the first time I had heard about this company was when they had only cats, and my mom bought a cat for her elderly mother. All of the marketing of this product gears them as companion pets for the elderly, so would they really be effective for someone my age who just couldn't have a real pet? Once the golden pup went on sale, I snatched one up. The first day I had my pup, I kept saying to myself, "I don't know if this is ridiculous and I wasted money." By the second day, I was in love. Yes, I am fully aware this is not a real dog; however, there is something about how it responds to your voice; how it responds to the curtains opening up in the morning; the heartbeat; the way it closes its eyes and leans up into you when you scratch its head; etc. I still know the pet isn't real, but I find such joy in "talking" to it. I find such joy in it, period. I have shared this dog with coworkers, friends, and even people I know online, and I've raved about the pet. For anyone who is like me, who has been wondering if this Joy For All dog is worth the money? Yes. Yes. RESOUNDING YES. This dog is so worth it.... so much so that I bought the freckled pup version just a week later. If you have anxiety, and you can't have a real dog for any reason, but you want a companion... get this dog. It is so worth it. This dog really is a joy, for real.

I don't really write reviews, but this was really a God-send. My husband's grandmother is suffering from dementia and recently lost her dog. I didn't want to offend her by getting her this, because she is still very 'with it' a lot of the time. She warmed up to it within minutes and now it is with her all the time. She snuggles it, talks to it, and even tries to comfort it by talking about her old dog when it wines. It is really beautiful to see how much comfort it gives her, and I'm so grateful to the person who thought of this <3

This pet dog is perfect for mom. She's almost 90 and loves dogs. A real pet is too much for her but after losing her husband for 41 years she was very lonely. She takes this dog everywhere on her walker and in the bed when she sleeps. Perfect product. She's had it for at least 16 months now with no issues. Buy it. You will love it.
