Street Muttz are animatronic stuffed animals that respond to your presence and act like dogs. They can detect when you're there using an embedded sensor, which makes them more life-like as they respond to your presence without having to turn them on. The dogs also: whimper, growl, tilt their head and make other puppy sounds. If you want to groom your Street Muttz you can use a damp cloth with soap and water on their fur and leave them out to dry. Each Street Mutt has its own personality and look, making the line appealing to kids who want their own puppy.
