"Walter the Farting Dog—star of the best-selling books by William Kotzwinkle, Glenn Murray and Audrey Colman—is up for adoption. Bring him home to live with your family and watch everyone's mood brighten. Sure, he looks as adorable as the next puppy, but watch out—when you squeeze him, he lets out a loud doggie fart! He’s an irresistible giggle-inducer for children and the young at heart." - Aire Norell. Walter the Farting Dog is also available in a large 18" size ($40.00 MSRP).
