This is a toy review about the Tea Cup Pup by Fur Real Friends, an adorable brown Yorkie with a blue bow in a blue and brown polka dot carrying case. It comes with an adoption certificate with a code to register it online. No name is included, so you can name it yourself. The Tea Cup Pup is cute, it falls asleep and barks, which is actually all it does. The Tea Cup Pup's speech is limited to 3 different sounds and basic whining. Just before the pup falls asleep, it whines and begs you to play with it. The Tea Cup Pup only barks as opposed to some of the other Fur Real Friends pets. For example, Tumbles My Roll Over Pup, actually rolls over.

This Tea Cup Pup has two definite downsides. One is you can only pet the Tea Cup Pup in a certain place or it will not do anything. Sometimes if you pet it in the right spot, but not hard enough, it still won't do anything. The second downside is the Tea Cup Pup's on/off switch is located underneath a velcro flap on the bottom of the animal. This makes it hard to turn the toy on and off.

The Tea Cup Pup does have a couple upsides. It is an easy tagalong for trips, as it comes with a stylish carrying case. My younger sister, Kayleigh, age 7, fell in love with the Tea Cup Pup. She really enjoys it, although she wishes it would do more tricks and/or walk.

I've heard mixed reviews about the Fur Real Friends brand. Some of my friends who had one really enjoyed it. Some other friends said theirs became broken not long after they got it. As far as the Tea Cup Pup goes, I'd say you might not be getting your $20.00 out of it.
