You'll go dotty for the latest edition of the smash hit puppy training simulation, Nintendogs!

Released on June 16, 2006, the Nintendogs Dalmatian & Friends Edition includes the much sought-after Dalmatian puppy, which was hard to unlock in previous versions.

The Dalmatian is just one of six breeds to choose from at the start; the others being the most popular Nintendogs from previous versions: Boxer, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Yorkshire Terrier and Beagle. Twelve other breeds can be unlocked by being a good dog trainer and building up your Trainer Points, and there are also two secret breeds to discover - making 20 dogs in total to own.

Plus, if you have a friend who doesn't yet own the Dalmatian or any of the other dogs, simply meet them in Bark Mode (by linking your Nintendo DS systems wirelessly) and they'll have their very own cute spotted pup!
