To accompany with the success of the Nintendogs franchise, Nintendo released several types of merchandises and partnered with different companies to produce lines of toys.
List of Nintendogs Merchandise[]
List of Nintendogs Plushies[]
In late 2007, thanks to the success of the Nintendogs franchise, toy manufacturer TOMY started producing merchandise based off of the video game. They were first sold in the United Kingdom and some other parts of Europe and expanded into the United States.
They were discontinued around mid-2010.

Trivia[]
- It would seem that many of the licensed Nintendogs products with electronic components are modeled after the FurReal Friends line of animatronic toys, produced by Tiger Electronics (under ownership of Hasbro).
- The Tug & Play Pup, for example, shares many similarities to the Tuggin' Pup (2007). Both products were released the same year.
