Stages of development Super Poo-Chi will go through 3 stages of development, Baby, Puppy and Adult. In the Adult stage, Super Poo-Chi will become a Faithful dog, Talented dog or Lazy dog. Just like a real dog, how you train and play with Super Poo-Chi will determine how he develops! You can actually choose how you want Super Poo-Chi to develop. You have 2 choices, Nourish mode or Adult mode. In Nourish mode, you get to train your Super Poo-Chi to do tricks. In Adult mode, your Super Poo-Chi will automatically know how to do all his tricks. In both modes your voice commands Super Poo-Chi to do his tricks. It is very important that you reward your dog for doing tricks properly or he will not learn to do them on command. Repeating the above learning procedure allows your dog to learn more. But like any friend, play is important too and your dog also needs a break from his training. Play with your dog to give Super Poo-Chi a break and relax. Playing also is very important for Super Poo-Chi to develop his own personality. Adult As a result of his learning during puppy age, your dog will become one of three (3) different types of dog: Lazy dog, Faithful dog, or Talented dog. - Lazy dog If you do not train your dog to properly respond to your voice commands he will become a lazy dog as an adult. If your dog becomes a lazy dog, he will have vague (confused) reaction to your voice commands. - Faithful dog If you train your dog well during Puppy stage he will become a Faithful dog. A Faithful dog will properly respond to voice commands most of the time. - Talented dog If you train your dog well as a puppy and play with him a lot during training he will become a talented dog. A Talented dog will respond properly to almost all of your voice commands and will be able to sing lots of songs and dance a lot. In order to make sure your dog becomes a talented dog, it is very important that you command your dog to sing. Therefore be sure to use the voice command "Let's sing" while playing with your dog as he develops to make sure he becomes a talented dog. Training hints: If you do not teach and play with Super Poo-Chi much as a puppy your dog will become a lazy dog. If you teach your dog a lot but do not play during training he will become a faithful dog. If you teach your dog a lot and play with him during training he will become a talented dog. 11.Secret Mode If you want to get into the "secret mode", which plays all the songs Super Poo-Chi knows in a row without dancing, press the SET button (A) on his chest for 4 seconds and it will begin beeping.
