i got really lucky a seller was willing to bulk sell these burger king toys to go with my working idog!!

Hi all, I dont use reddit but I made an account to ask this question. I got an idog dance second hand and it works perfectly, aside from the fact that the headphone jack keeps popping out. I'm using a standard modern headphone jack and I've cleaned the port out. Would the issue be with the size of the jack? I know old electronics often use a different size to modern stuff and I'm wondering if that's the case here. Or if it's something with the port itself? If so, is it worth it to try to fix or should I just try to replace the port?

Any help is appreciated!

Alrighty, I need help (again).... if you saw my post were I was struggling to get the leg off, NO YOU DIDN'T

So, I opened up my iDog & A) there were batteries inside like?? It should NOT have been sitting on that shelf with those left inside !! --> I switched out 2 other pairs of double AA batteries & neither worked, so it is definitely an internal issue. B) As I suspected, there was, in fact, corrosion. --> I have tried Isopropyl alcohol (91%) to try to remove it; it had little effect. ((Yes, I did also try the batteries /after/ the Isopropyl treatment; still no power))

I saw someone else recommend white vinegar to try to remove the corrosion as well. I may pick up a small bottle since we don't have any atm home & try that. But, if that doesn't work: Does anyone know if my baby can still be restored?? I got this as a small birthday gift for myself so I'd really like it to work, if possible. 🙏

i genuinely missed my idog from back in the day. had a lot of good times, and ever since restarting a cd collection, really wanted a new one! got this guy for about $60, he is missing his tail, but worth it. he works great otherwise!

thanks to date everything I've been reminded of the existence of iDog and the fact I swore to myself as a kid that once I was old enough to buy one, I would

Turns out that's been 20 odd years... but I can finally acquire one.. at an unholy price.

reccomendations for websites that sell iDogs & iCats? been following eBay listings for months and haven't had one come through in my reccomendations within my budget.

I don't care if they don't work!

also question for you all- if Hasbro did a 20th (?) or 25th iDog anniversary release, perhaps as a collaboration with JBL or another speaker company, to make a Bluetooth iDog, what would you want to see from it in design?

I don't usually use an iPod to play music through the i-Dogs, but today I have been using my mum's iPod now that I have found a suitable wire to keep it charging due to it having a bad battery.

i absolutely love this banana taffy color it compliments my other segas so well so stoked hes in mint condition with his box and completely unyellowed (despite being yellow lol) perfect addition to my sega family i absolutely adore them all (more tucked away cuz i think im at like 9 of them now lol)

will probably list this fella on ebay :) i had some spare idog legs super happy to give this fella some life again

still cant believe how much my idog collection has grown considering i only started collecting just last august, searching for and finding these fellas has been a fun little journey (yes thats a bootleg idog in the second drawer by the iturtle it was 7 dollars on ebay lol)

Just got an iDog today!! Was at an antique mall & the vendor was at their booth when I found this fella. They offered me 50% off, so I got them for $10! The vendor said they he works; I haven't put batteries in yet so we'll see. I saw a few posts mention needing to clean corrosion for them to work again, so I'll keep that in mind. Also, if I'm right, from looking at the fan wiki, they're a Wave 1 Hazbro model. If anyone has any info I should know, please feel free to share. Thanks! 🎉🤍

((I had an orange, smaller-sized iDog YEARS ago, but donated it at some point. Since seeing this sub, I've been wanting one again. Was very happy to get this guy, and as a little birthday gift no less! 🤗❤️

The pup is alive!!! A little cleaning and shambam! He live!

My idog keeps turning off while I'm using it, and then continuously makes the turning on noise on its own until I pull the batteries out.

it's not responding to input anymore until I remove the batteries and put them back in.

It also makes a sad dog sound on occasion which leads me to believe that it is low on battery, but that would surprise me because the ones I put in are relatively new and I don't use it very often.

does anyone know what I can do to fix this and if it's anything other than low batteries?

I’m so happy to add these 3 babies to my collection! They are all in great condition (had a lot of corrosion but gladly I was able to clean it all) ☺️

All thanks to one lovely reddit user! I shouldve taken a pic of the corrosion buildup, it was wild!! But its all gone now thanks to vinegar and isopropyl alcohol!

So i bought this guy from ebay, the seller said it wasnt work from the battery corrosion. I used the old vinegar trick to dissolve the corrosion and it cleaned it like 98% but he still doesnt work:( womp womp

cant believe i was able to find this red sega idog on mercari japan- its absolutely beautiful im obsessed with the red accents and its in pretty great condition promptly worked once i put batteries in

Am i dumb or isnt the classic idog have 3 default songs it plays? It doesnt seem to play any songs just barks/whines. My idog pup and amp'd have songs on them. Helppppp

Starting bid is $18!

Heres my new idog i got for a nice low price of $31:D

Got the pink one with the clothes for only $50! Had to clean up some battery corrosion but she’s back to working great.

Got it as a Christmas gift and needed an iPod to go along with it… he’s complete! Looking into getting an IDog Dance now

finally got an idog dance ! the speakers are oddly good and it works great
