Teksta Interactive Puppy

Teksta is a robotic puppy claimed to do everything a puppy can do...and more. He will walk, bark, cry, feed, guard your room and you can teach him tricks, move over Poochi, Teksta has arrived. Upon removing him from the box, which isn't easy to do and needs a lot of adult help, you will have a plastic eight week old puppy with more sensors than you can shake a stick at making him one of the most interactive toys I have ever come across. My eight year old daughter got Teksta for Christmas and I have to admit weeks later we are still trying to figure out what it can do and unlike other interactive toys it is still on its first set of batteries and an on/off button. ...  Read the complete review

I bought Teksta for my 8 year old as a Christmas present. I must admit it’s cute, but it did cost £39!and it is not as exciting as I expected it to be. It says it does 150 different functions and you can teach it tricks and more. The various functions are enabled due to various sensors all over the dog, a head sensor, light, nose, sound, neck and mouth. Plus a mode button on the side of its neck. Teksta comes complete with his own little bone too. Here are the various things you can expect your little robotic doggy to do! 1. Walk and can be programmed to walk towards you either by calling its name or clapping. 2. Bark on command by shouting its ...  Read the complete review

I bought a Teksta interactive robot puppy for each of my children as Christmas presents. What swayed me towards Teksta was the fact that it has over 150 'cool' functions and emotions,also because the Teksta's website claims to offer new programs. I noticed that some of the more expensive interactive dogs didnt offer as much. The design of Teksta appearance wise is fantastic, looking rather cute,on the other hand movement is limited. Teksta will only walk in a straight line,move ears,tail,and change eye shape. Teksta can be taught to do a number of tricks for which you have to follow sequences with the buttons situated at his ...  Read the complete review

Do you remember that electronic dog on battlestar galactica - Muffey. He was virtually like a real dog except no mess. Well Teksta is a couple of thousand years away from Muffey's technology. Teksta looks great and is a bit of fun. There are lots of programmable functions which will hold the parents attention more than the kids. Our little Teksta kept falling over. I had to tell my nephew "its because he's a puppy" he wags his tail, barks, pants and even does a card trick. I think its a nice thing to own but as a toy it has limited playability. Certinly as far as my nephew is concerned he has not played with it bar the first half ...  Read the complete review

My son was bought Teksta the interactive puppy for christmas and loves him to bits. We currently own four real dogs, so my son was so proud to own a puppy of his own, I really didn't think he would take to it like he has but he talks to it like a real dog. Teksta comes with a full instructional manual which teaches you how to programme him, he is sopposed to be like any 8 week old puppy, you can even programme him to pine and howl when it gets dark, as if he is scared (how cute!!) He has many sensors all over his body so he can tell when he's being stroked and being fed etc, when you touch the sensor on his neck he thinks you are tickling behind ...  Read the complete review
