(Love the chuckit and so does my lab) 『I love the chuckit and so does does my 11 month old lab. I find it easier to use and it take less space to store than a tennis racket. My 4 yr old daughter thinks Mommy is great at throwing a ball. I will be buying another one soon to have just in case something happens with my current one.』
(3 out of 4 Paws) 『First Impression: Someone gave me the Chuckit Ball Launcher as a gift. It seems to be for lazy humans. Fetch is not my favorite game, so we don't use this toy very often. However even Mom can make the ball go pretty far with the device. For the most part I just look at her like "Why did you throw the ball way over there?" then she goes and gets it for me. Don't get me wrong I like to chew on the ball... But why should I retrieve it? I'm not a retriever!
Conclusion: If you like to fetch, this is a great device for your parents to buy. They will be able to throw the ball farther, and they won't wear out as quickly. Plus if they are "old" they don't even have to bend over to pickup the ball! They can use the Launcher as a handle and press the cup onto the ball. Nifty. 3 out of 4 stars because Rottie's are not big on fetch.』 『The Chuckit! is one sweet way to exercise your dog...without wearing out your arm. With the Chuckit!, you can throw that ball out of the ballpark over and over again. Use it in the park, in your backyard, or anywhere there is plenty of room. With a little practice you can consistently throw the ball 100 to 140 feet. Instructions: Find an open area, away from people, animals and buildings. With the ball in the Chuckit!, grip the handle firmly. Extend your arm back over your shoulder until the ball is behind you. Then swing it forward in a smooth arc and follow through. The ball will release when you swing it fast enough. Hands Free Pick Up. Holding the handle of the Chuckit!, place the ball claw over the tennis ball and press down firmly. Description: 12 inches long. Made of lightweight, durable plastic, the Chuckit! uses a standard-size tennis ball and is designed for hands-free pickup... so you NEVER have to bend down and pick up a slimy ball again.』

(Helpful Tool for Decorating/Color Decisions) 『This is handy for the layperson who is having trouble visualizing which colors go with what or for a decorator working with a client.

Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (No more slobbery hands!!!) 『This is a great item for us especially because our dog park has no grass, only dirt, and the combination of slobber and dirt creates a disgusting ball pretty quickly. Using my chuckit, I don't have to touch the ball and I can throw it way farther than I can just by throwing.
My dog is completely obsessed with playing fetch and this launcher has worked out really great for us.
The only quibble I have is that it's really hard to find 2" replacement balls. As far as I can tell, only chuckit makes balls in that exact size and they're really hard to find in stores near me.』
("Chuckit", Ball throwing for dogs. What a great idea.) 『"Chuckit" Ball Throwing Fetch Toy for Dogs. It works so well that the dogs loses sight of the ball. Remember, dogs are limited. They lose sight of the object because they don't often follow the release of the ball that goes that fast. "Chuckit" gives tremendous height&distance that the normal human arm cannot perform. It's a re-do of a old battle weapon of ancient times. Maybe like Hai Alai. The only buying problem is that they never ask you what 'color' you want; Red, Yellow, Blue or Black handle.』
(Great Item) 『I love this product! I can exercise my dog for an hour throwing balls in the field and not wear myself out! The only complaint I have is it is a bit bulky to carry on my walk to the park, maybe a folding or collapsible model? But other than that It has held up to cold weather ( 10 degrees) , many drops onto concrete and daily use for the past two months. I use it with the rubberized balls, they seem to last longer and I get better distance than the "tennis" type balls.』
(At least my hands stay clean now) 『I love the Chuckit Jr. Ball Launcher. It fits in my backpack when we walk to HB Dog Beach. No more bending over to retrieve a spit-covered ball. But I still get to walk the extra 500 yards or so (past where I chucked it) where Gilligan deposits the ball.』
(Brilliant product!) 『This thing is just brilliant. It will throw the ball much further than you can throw with your arm and it saves you from wearing out your shoulder. What I like about it the most though is that I don't have to handle a slobbery ball. My dog gets the ball soaked in slobber and this will pick up the ball and throw it again without ever having to touch it.』 『

It is equal to a glass of cold milk and a hot chocolate chip cookie. Bing and Bob made this holiday special in this 50's color television special that reeks of the 50's and classic songs. Depressed this holiday season hopefully this will bring you out of some of it if not all. If your local library doesn't carry it this is the place to get it.』
(Beautiful Holiday (Christmas) Music DVD with Bing&Frank!) 『What can I say...a short 30 minute show (then there is another bonus feature on the disk which adds more to the viewing minutes). Great music, very easy listening. I enjoyed this DVD, I think you would too!』
(A wonderful surprise!) 『I was looking for old Christmas specials, and I ordered this, not really knowing what I would get. What a wonderful surprise! My children absolutely adored this special, which features Bing Crosby as a dinner guest being entertained by Frank Sinatra. There's a bit of a time travel sequence back to Merry Old England as well. This made for a delightful veiwing one evening over the holidays.』
(happy holidays with bing and frank) 『the film type was older and not as enjoyable. it was just the 2 of them enjoying an evening, it was a very short dvd,Shipped as promised.』
(Xmas with Bing and Frank) 『This was an entertaining dvd. I especially liked the period decor and the interaction between Frank and Bing. These guys were icons in their time, and they sang excellent together.』 『Studio: Arts Alliance America Release Date: 08/14/2007』

How many bands can say that they are still playing after 30 years? Two DVD's tell the story of how the band got started and everything along the way. The music is great, the video's are great. It shows footage from way back which is really fun to see. Especially if you have been a fan along the way. You need to watch this. If you don't want to watch just listen. It is extremely entertaining!』
(Runnin Down a Dream) 『Saw this when it aired on Independent TV earlier in 2008 -- very thorough biography about the band and great song selections -- lots of awesome live and in-studio material. Every Tom Petty fan needs to see this!』 『Studio: Wea-des Moines Video Release Date: 10/28/2008』

Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (best sing a long movie ever!) 『My kid just loves this movie she sings and dances along and watches it over and over! So Fun for the whole family we like to watch it on the plane on the way to Disney too! FUN FUN FUN』
(Great for young toddlers!) 『My 19 month old is obsessed with this DVD! He loves the songs and the characters, and sees new things each time he watches it. Yes, it's cheesy and essentially a 30 minute commercial for Disneyland, but it's not nearly as annoying as a lot of the kids' DVDs out there. Also, the French version is quite entertaining - if you understand French, it's interesting to see how some of the songs are translated.』
(Great fun - plus an easter egg!) 『The other reviewers have good points, but I don't think anyone has mentioned what I think is the most fun feature on this DVD! But more on that in a moment.
First, the people giving negative reviews have two good points - this thing IS a little dated, and the song "Grim Grinning Ghosts" can be scary for young kids. (I can't remember any other major criticisms...) Having said that, I really like the return to 1989: Big hair! Guys wearing pink (non-ironically)! The PeopleMover! Party Gras! It's a little like watching one of those World of Disney shows from the Sixties. My kids didn't like the song "GGG" at first, but I watch it with them, and we discuss the relevant issues - that it's just pretend, that there are people in those costumes, and that sometimes it's fun to be scared. I think they'll be ready for the Mansion next time we go to Anaheim...
But there's so much more to love on this video! The songs are fun, and it's great to learn some of these lyrics to sing along at the park. I can no longer walk down Main Street without humming the catchy second song on the disc, and the up-tempo "Zip-A-Dee-Do-Dah" is cool, complete with the requisite horrible rap break in the middle (so common in the Eighties). And since it was 1989, they were also trying to cram Roger Rabbit down our throats at every opportunity (sorry, Roger - great attraction, but you're not a "classic")!
The most fun, though, is sort of an easter egg, and I haven't heard anyone else mention it. On the "set up" menu for the DVD, it gives you the option to switch the language to French. Haven't tried it? I don't blame you, I don't speak French either. But when you choose that option, instead of just a translation, you get an entirely different video - shot at Disneyland Paris! It's a beautiful park, and the video shows some things I've heard of, but never seen, like Alice's Curious Labyrinth and the dragon lying in wait beneath the castle. Plus, the Phantom Manor song features the mysterious Phantom himself, and a real treat for Haunted Mansion geeks: a beating-heart Bride face character!
To sum up: * Yes, the video is dated and a bit dorky, but there are those of us that embrace that sort of thing. * The Haunted Mansion is creepy, so don't leave your kids there alone. * Roger Rabbit was never as successful a franchise as Disney had hoped. * Disneyland looks pretty much the same today as it did twenty years ago (except Tomorrowland, which does not look as modern now as it did then). * And even if you don't speak French, Disneyland Paris is a great place to spend part of your day.』
(Getting Ready for Disney!) 『Wow! What a great video to prepare your children for the Big trip to Disney! This video highlights songs and characters and Disney attractions. My 4 and 2 year old boys love to watch this DVD and in my opinion has well prepared them for our trip. Just wish it was a bit more up to date. The video features Roger Rabbit...and early 90's attire and hairstyles. (At least the styles give my wife and I a good laugh!)』
(Fun and oddly nostalgic) 『OK, this video is for my 4 and 2 year olds but I find it charming and strangely reflective. It was shot in the early 90's right about the time I was graduating from high school so the scenery and fashions really bring back some memories. It also provides a time-capsule look at rides gone past like the People Mover, Skyway, the OLD Tom Sawyer's Island, Tomorrowland before the makeover and more. The kids love it too and seem to really enjoy the "Main Street USA" and "Step-N-Time" sequences. Good production values and fun for the kids.』 『Studio: Buena Vista Home Video Release Date: 09/27/2005』 『It's easy to see why this is one of the bestselling sing-alongs from Disney: it plays like the ultimate family-vacation home movie. Instead of fleeting glimpses of your favorite characters on your home videos of Disneyland, this 27-minute episode showcases Mickey, Goofy, Pluto, and their friends hanging out with kids inside the Magic Kingdom singing (well, their lips don't move) such popular songs as " Zip a Dee Do Dah," "It's a Small World," and "Step in Time" with the lyrics appearing on screen for youngsters. The one drawback is the video was shot in 1990, so none of the newer rides are shown, and worse yet, some older rides seen aren't around anymore ("Mom, why didn't we go on the submarine?"). Perhaps that isn't a drawback since, despite the age, and some truly unknown songs ("Making Memories"), the program continues to be popular.--Doug Thomas』
IPhone 3G used's review (Mickeys magical christmas) 『Mickeys magical christmas vcr tape was never received and and i have contacted seller twice now and nothing. i would like this taken care of either with the movie i ordered or a refund so i can order a different movie. thank you』
(Adults need perspective.) 『Hello, I am writing this because my kids love this and ask for it (specifically Mickey's version of the Nutcracker). Kids, in general, do not care about whether or not the dvd is truly feature length, they just want to watch it. This is aimed at children. I think we, as adults, would do well to follow their lead in attitudes sometimes. The video is entertaining and has the classics characters from Disney. We as a family love Disney and this video. Merry Christmas!』
(Goofy learning to ski) 『hello Disney Fans. I am wondering if anyone has ever seen the holiday short about Goofy learning to ski. It was a great little narrated short that I saw when I was a kid. I saw it on television way back when and it was tagged along with a couple of other holiday shorts to a broadcast of the classic "Mickey's Christmas Carol". I have been reading reviews and dvd discriptions on here for an hour and I cannot find anything that mentions this particular short. If anyone knows if it is even available on any of these disney dvd's and if so which one. Please email me and let me know, Thanks. my email address is ryback78@hotmail.com』
(house of mouse) 『excellent entertainment disney needs to do more house of mouse dvds』
(Love it!) 『I think this is very cute. I love it. Especially the adaptaion of The Nutcracker. Great music in that segment. I love all the cartoons they show, old and new. And my day care kids love it too.』 『Though promoted as a "full length holiday movie," this is more of a TV Christmas special spinoff from Disney's new series,House of Mouse. The premise is something like an animatedMuppet Show: Mickey, Goofy, and Donald run a nightclub for an audience of Disney characters, with plenty of songs, skits, and cartoons. There's not much story to this holiday special--Mickey whips up an impromptu party for stranded guests and instills a "Humbug"-quacking Donald with the holiday spirit--but it's full of sight gags and comic bits with dozens of Disney characters, from Ludwig von Duck to Pumba and Timmon. The special begins with the shortPluto's Christmas Treeand ends with the entire 1983 short filmMickey's Christmas Carol. However, the highlight is a comic retelling ofThe Nutcrackerwith Donald as a reluctant Mouse King (complete with phony Mickey Mouse ears) and John Cleese as the exasperated narrator. The special is utterly unmemorable as a whole, but nonetheless bright, light, and cute and sure to keep the attentions of young tots.--Sean Axmaker』 『Join Mickey and all of your favorite Disney animated superstars—together for the first time ever—as they share a heartwarming holiday celebration and sing a special Song,“The Best Christmas Of All,” that captures this wondrous occasion.
When a huge snowstorm leaves everyone stranded, Mickey and all of his guests at The House Of Mouse, including Pooh, Piglet, Belle, Snow White, Ariel and many more of his old and new friends, break out the cookies and hot chocolate to help Donald mend his tattered Christmas spirit. The fun starts when Minnie pulls out their favorite holiday home movies and everyone starts to reminisce. Their magical memories soon put everyone in the Christmas mood—even grumpy Donald, who ultimately becomes the star of the evening.
As everybody lifts their voices in joyful song, they realize that the“Best Christmas Of All” is the one you share with all of your friends!』
IPhone 3G used's review (Great family film) 『As with all the Wishbone series Wishbone: Dog Days of the West is a great family video. My children always ask to check it out at the library. We've seen this movie several times and it doesn't get old.
The story line is interesting and it is not difficult for elementary age children to follow along even though it goes between modern times and the western.
And, of course, Wishbone is adorable. If your children like animals they will love this show.』
(Fabulous!) 『Though my family loved the PBS series, I was a little dubious about the quality, content and pace of this "feature length" movie, but it's actually funnier and more engaging than any of it's 30 minute counterparts. This sustained the interest of 2 adults, my 9yr old son and both of his toddler sisters better than most Disney features! Though I believe the film may star a new Wishbone, the doggy acting was still quite charming, and the usual gang are all back in fine form, with the additional fun of seeing a much more grown up David. What really makes this movie fabulous are the perfectly acted western sequences. Calliope, the town drunk, is nothing short of hilarious, but in addition to some really good laughs, the story also offers a very warm and meaningful moral highlight. Even my critical husband was impressed....This is great family fun your kids will enjoy watching over and over again!』
(This Is a Good Movie for Kids and Adults -- by FilmBoy) 『"Wishbone's Dog Days of the West" is very funny. The voice of Wishbone really helps you to see the dog's feelings; I think. The movie's story is based on stories by O. Henry. This movie is for all ages. Wishbone is one of the cutest little dogs of all times. You really should see this because... You'll love it! It'll make you want see other Wishbone movies! It shows how the reports on TV you may see can often be twisted!』
(Hi! Wishbone da dog.) 『Wishbone is what one might call a amazing dog.Has more adventures than one can count playing a variety of people.It really cute to see him put a hat or shirt or pants and play Hercales,Sherlock Homes,Frankenstien,and all sorts you would think would be very akward on four legs.And did I forget? OF COURSE HE TALKS!A high funny voice that seems to match him well. In this one a cowboy hero is what he's playing having to fight a drunken ranch hand along with his pal I think called Bill.I don't want to give away much more but It's a good family movie thats exciting and interesting. In real life(For Wishbone imagines his adventures in another time)His owner and friends are trying to keep the mayors name clear.In this movie the Kids have become Teenagers so It's the later years of Wishbone.Anyhow I didn't give spoilers and I hope you got the idea of the movie.ARF!』
(Wow - great editing) 『This is the best piece of editing I've seen in a long time...well produced. Great stroyline - cute dog.』
IPhone 3G used's review (Great Movie) 『I love old musicals and think Gordon MacRae was one of the greatest singers of all times. I have quite a collection of these, including an out-of-print copy of "Deep In My Heart," the story of Sigmund Romberg's career. I also have "The Student Prince." This movie, "The Desert Song," was really fun to watch and filled with great music. The acting of some of these old singers is not as great as their singing, but if you like the old musicals the way I do, this is one of the best. My only regret is that so many of them are only available on VHS and have not been made into DVD format.』
(Desert Song) 『Watched this movie dozens of times at a youth, but not up to current movie standards. The music is great.』
(Great fun.) 『Great fun; great kitsch. The opening scenes with the obvious rear-screen projection, matte paintings, and intercut desert footage are laughable from a directorial point of view. The plot is stereotypical, but perfect, with unctuous baddies, a mustachioed rival, and uppity leading lady. As soon as Gordon and Kathryn begin to sing, however, we are transfixed, and all of the cinematic hoo-ha dissolves in the schmaltz of Sigmund Romberg. In short, it's delicious, and you succumb to it because the songs are so wonderful. And with Ray Collins as the wise general who helps sort out Arabia, what more could you ask? Note, there really were riffs and they really did have a legendary leader--in Morocco.』
(What voices) 『If you love light opera you will not go wrong with this one. Gordon McRae and Kathryn Grayson at their best』
(Thrilled again!) 『This movie was as I remembered seeing it in the 1950's. Gordon Macrae is the handsome dashing hero, who happens to have one of the greatest singing voices ever. (He was Curly in Oklahoma.) So the movie is a bit smuchly! It is still one of the most romantic movies ever. If you want all the music of the operetta, you'll have to buy an audio recording. But still all the favorites are here. Pop some popcorn, light the fire, put your feet up, and enjoy.』 『Film adaptation of the operetta by the same name. An American is working as the clandestine leader of a group of African natives as they fight against Arabia. Features musical numbers Riff Song, Romance, The Desert Song, One Flower, One Alone, Gay Parisie』
