This thing does nothing but hump. Buy it because you need a little plastic dog humping your computer. Warning: you probably won’t be able to use it if your USB ports are at the back of your laptop.

Meet Shaggy, the little brown dog that never ceases to amuse those who see it! It seems that humping your USB port is the only point to this little dog.

It absolutely has no redeeming qualities like built in flash memory, or even eyes that light up, though it’s said that some tinkerers have modified them to both. Received one as a gift, and it is fun, and seems quite attached to notebook computers.

Fun value: 5-stars

Educational: 3-stars

Durable: 5-stars (it pretty amazing!)

Overall value: 5-stars, without a doubt!

There’s an ironic quote from the Google translation of the original Japanese page, and seems quite appropriate for the action of this little dog: “until it pulls out, it does not stop.”

There are other variations (different breeds) available, so take your pick:

- USB Humping Dog – Beagle

- USB Humping Dog – Dalmation

OK, they’re not as practical as some of the other USB devices you can find here, but they are a lot of fun.

Update: According to the manuacturer, a personal computer with a USB port is all that’s required, and the product is compatible with any OS. Personal tests on both the Mac and PC platforms prove this to be correct.

Yes, this little dog does get around, but seemes happier with my VAIO notebook than anywhere else.
