Robot dogs

A robotic dog can offer companionship to someone who likes dogs but cannot have a living animal. Joy For All dogs have soft fur and respond to voices and touch with sounds and movements.

Choose Golden “Leo” or Freckled “Balto”, or a dog bundle for your organisation. The dogs need neither feeding nor walking.

Cleaning robotic therapy pets

Caring for your robotic dog

Robotic pets should be cleaned by hand and handled according to the instructions. This is especially important when several people use the same animal.

We have brought together cleaning instructions and accessories to help you establish a clear routine at home or in your organisation.

Frequently asked questions about robotic dogs

What is the difference between Leo and Balto?

Golden “Leo” and Freckled “Balto” are two versions of Joy For All’s robotic dog. Their features are the same; their fur and appearance differ.

How does a robotic dog respond?

The robotic dog has sensors that respond to touch and sound. It can bark when spoken to, turn its head and respond to contact with movements and a heartbeat.

Which robotic dog is the best fit?

Start with what the person likes and let contact happen at their own pace. A robotic dog does not suit everyone. For those who prefer cats or birds, there are other robotic therapy pets.

Can the sound and the dog be switched off?

Joy For All dogs have a switch under a Velcro flap on the belly with ON, MUTE and OFF settings. MUTE switches off the sound and OFF switches off the dog.

How do I clean the robotic dog?

Clean the robotic pet by hand, not in a washing machine. Follow the instructions for the model and protect the electronics.
