SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20130101-1B03C-2147460402. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: Hasbro 29203 (Hasbro Fur Real Friends Cookie Puppy. Large (about 12-18" tall, White w/pink collar. Link for actual product on Amazon site- http://www.amazon.com/Fur-Real-Friends-Cookie-Puppy/dp/B004P958XQ/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top). Incident: The Hasbro Fur Real Friends Cookie Puppy was a gift for my 3 year old for Christmas. Upon opening the product it did not work so I assumed naturally that it needed new batteries. I opened the battery compartment and found that 3 of the 4 batteries had leaked and completely corroded the inside of the battery compartment and there was battery acid leaking outside of the compartment onto the dog itself. This is not only an issue of the fact that the toy does not work, but also poses a danger to children possibly being exposed to the battery acid. Looking at reviews for the product on Amazon I found that this is in fact a consistent problem and needs to be addressed.
