With pup-level handheld cameras, the film captures a variety of darling puppies frisking and frolicking (sometimes in sunglasses and hats), while catchy songs drive home such information as what puppies like to do, should eat, and must make (on the grass, one hopes). In each of six chapters (e.g., Puppy Playtime, Chowtime, Puppy Rules), young children interact with the pets and impart useful information, including the most important: Help your parents clean up after your puppy. Menus choices include a Puppy Quiz and Interactive Puppy, a recap of a pups parts. This is an educational, engaging, and doggone well-made introduction to puppies and their care. A CD of the songs is included. --American Library Association, Booklist Journal, July 2007 For families considering adopting a puppy, this DVD shows live-action footage of puppies of various breeds (listed in the credits) participating in many activities, accompanied by ditties about the action taking place. There are six sections, with a group of children providing an introduction between them. Welcome to Puppytown introduces two songs about pups. Puppy Playtime features songs about running, chasing, and sleeping, Puppy 101 covers puppy anatomy and the mess they can make. Chowtime explains what they eat. Puppy Rules explains how to care for a pup and Growing Up rounds out the video footage. Although this is all staged, the puppies and the children are charming. The ditties are accompanied by a combo band and range in musical style from boogie-woogie to lullaby to zydeco. At the end of the production there is an interactive quiz, a review of anatomy, and advice for parents. The CD features all the music from the DVD. While the film offers only cursory information, youngsters will have fun watching and learn something about caring for puppies as well. Stephanie Bange --School Library Journal, June 2007 Issue
