Description

Play a ruff riff and rock out with the Woofer hound dog guitar! This electrifying instrument lets your toddler channel their inner Van Halen and experiment with a variety of funky features. Pick your musical mood from 3 different play modes: acoustic, electric, or hound dog. Compose your own song using a full C to C scale of 8 chords that smoothly fade in and out. Push the Music Note button to choose between 20 familiar songs, and then take the Strum button for a spin to play along. Every strum of the strings advances a song by 2 seconds, so keep strumming to keep the song going! You can also press the Doggy button for 9 Peppy Puppy songs. And if you feel like singing, go ahead and grab the lyric booklet! Make any song your own with additional sound effects, courtesy of the Whammy Bone button. Parents will also be happy to know that this dog guitar includes a trusty volume knob. End your rock concert by pressing Woofer’s nose, or he will automatically walk off the stage after 2 minutes of inactivity - now that’s a good doggy!

Q: Is the volume unusually very soft and hard to hear? We've tried turning it up all the way and changing the batteries but it makes no difference. Just trying to figure out if this is normal! Thanks.

submitted by Bri - 6 years ago
  • A: Ours is not soft! I would exchange it. This has been a favorite in our house for many years!

    submitted byCharlie - 6 years ago
  • A: It does indeed get loud! I would do an exchange. We got this for my daughter as a gift when she was 1 and she still loves it and is now 5. I also frequently use it as a gift to others!

    submitted byVTHokieStephy - 6 years ago
  • A: Hi Bri - As the others have said, the woofer should not be hard to hear. We hope you did take it back to Target for an exchange. This is such a fun toy - we really want your little one to enjoy it for a long time!!

Q: the surface has become softer and sticky on the front. What to do? I have cleaned it carefully

submitted by Lakeside lady - 11 months ago
  • A: Hi Lakeside lady. The Woofer material is not toxic, and the stickiness can be caused by either heat (direct or indirect) or the products being used to clean it. Once the below happens there is no way to reverse it. Thank you. The Battat Team

Q: What are recommended ages?

submitted by Chris - 3 years ago
  • A: Hi Chris. The B. Woofer is recommended for children aged 2 years plus. It's woof'n good songs are fun for the whole family. The guitar strap is attached on both ends by velcro and made to be taken off on the players (or parents) preference. Here's hoping that you have a strummingly good time. The Battat Team

Q: We purchased this a couple of weeks ago. The sound of the prerecorded songs can only be described as "fuzzy" - it's hard to understand the lyrics and the quality of the sound is very poor. Is this normal?

  • A: Hi. We are sorry to hear that your Woofer is not well. Please reach out to the Battat CS Team through the mybtoys website contact us portal and the CS team will try and help getting your Woofer back to normal. The Battat Team

Q: does this guitar only make dog noises?

submitted by maryanne - 4 years ago
  • A: Hi Maryanne. No, while the dog feature is a fun part to the Woofer, there are also 2 other setting, acoustic or electric, to change it to for normal guitar sounds. This way you can play during the day and bark the night away!. The Battat Team

Q: What are some of the 'familiar song's that come with this guitar?

submitted by Jen H - 5 years ago
  • A: Hi Jen, you can expect to hear Woofer's very unique rendition of Elvis Presley's hit song "Hound Dog" (we had to, of course)... There's also versions of the "Alphabet Song", "Old MacDonald"... and even a song from Led Zeppelin. We'll let you find out which one it is. We hope this helps. - Team B.

CAREFUL OF STRAP!!!

3 out of 5 stars
CP - 3 months ago
CAREFUL OF STRAP!!! The guitar itself is a big hit, the kids love it, but the guitar strap twisted around my son’s neck. The strap twisted so quickly and tightly he couldn’t breathe and it had to be removed by an adult. Luckily he wasn’t playing unsupervised, but that was by chance. At 4.5 he’s old enough to entertain himself in an adjacent room. The strap can simply be removed with the velcro attachment and I’d recommend doing so to avoid a similar incident. I saw another review that described the same scenario.

Hi CP! We’re sorry to hear about your son's experience with the strap for the B. toys Dog Guitar Woofer! We want to assure you that all of our toys go through rigorous testing and comply with all safety and quality requirements of both Canada and the United States. We implement the velcro release on the strap to address the possibility of it being tangled with the child. Your feedback has been forwarded to our design and engineering teams for review. We always appreciate honest reviews - whether in our favor or not! It helps us make our toys better. Sincerely, Team Battat.

This is a fun guitar and my kids love it, but please don't let it be a toy that they can play without supervision. My son was playing with it once and ran over to me because the strap twisted tight around his neck! He was panicked and I don't even want to think about what would have happened if I didn't see him quickly. I thought it was a one off, but now the same thing just happened to my daughter, prompting me to write this review. I took the strap off (which you can velcro off, thankfully). But I just wanted other Mamas to be aware

Hi LCB! We’re so sorry to hear that! We want to assure you that all of our toys go through rigorous testing and comply with all safety and quality requirements of both Canada and the United States. We designed the strap with the velcro closure exactly for this reason. It's easy to pull it apart and avoid accidents. Thank you for taking the time to write us. We hope your kiddos will continue to enjoy this super popular musical toy. Sincerely, Team Battat.

The first one I bought didn't work at all. I tried new batteries but it never made any noise. Target was great and sent me a new one. The 2nd one finally played music but only 2 of the 8 cord buttons worked. The sound wasn't great either. I love the idea of it but I don't want a brand new toy that only half works.

Hi Targetmama! We’re sorry to hear that! We really want your little one to enjoy playing with our B. Toys Woofer Guitar!

Bluebird - 9 months ago, Verified purchaser
I bought one of these for my nephew 4 years ago. He was 2 and loved it. I was looking for a gift this year for my 16 month old granddaughter so I followed up with my SIL. She said her son played with it for a couple of years and then their next son, who is almost 3 now, loves it too! So this toy is definitely durable! I bought one for my granddaughter for Christmas and so far it’s by far her favorite gift. She loves to push the buttons and strum the strings. She smiles and giggles as the songs play. Definitely recommend.

Too juvenile for my 4yo

2 out of 5 stars
Would not recommend
DiyMama - 9 months ago
My 4yo really wanted a guitar. I thought this would have a lot more of a strumming feature, but the noises from the buttons drowned out the strumming, what little there was. The strings don't react quickly to the movements (it's like delayed), and there aren't options to change the tune sound or anything. It was more of a flashy buttons toy for a 2yo than something interactive and skill building for my preschooler. We had to return. I think age range on this should be 2-3, definitely not older than that.

GG - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
It has the making of a really cute toy but after so many months the toy started skipping and won’t stop unless you turn it all the way off. When you turn it back on it works temporarily and then after so long of playing the music skips a static sound over and over. I just hate I can’t return it. Had the same trouble with the cat piano by this brand. Quality in the design but the products don’t last.

Hi GG - We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed in the B. toys Woofer Guitar, but we thank you for your feedback. What you are describing sounds like new batteries are required.

Hi Chuck - Thank you for your feedback. If you look at the song book that accompanies the B. toys Woofer Guitar, you will see that Melody 3 is called "AMERICAN FOLK MELODY". The lyrics provided are not the same as the song you mention. As we are sure you are aware, often there are several songs that use the same tune. Our apologies if you found the melody offensive.

My daughter loves this toy, unfortunately as she was dancing with it and twirling the strap became twisted around her neck.
