Fetch!

Have you always wanted to own a dog of your own but you're just too busy to look after a real live animal. Well now you can enjoy the fun of owning and exercising your very own virtual dog with "Fetch!"

Take your pick of the dogs at the kennels, all waiting eagerly and excitedly to see if you are going to choose them.

Fetch! uses superb 3d graphics to bring to life your pet and the environment he lives in. Enjoy the shade of the tree at the bottom of your garden or the sun through the window of your kitchen. Stroll down the high street with your dog and take him to one of the local parks for a game of catch. Enter your dog in agility or obedience trials at the local arena or town hall and win cash prizes. Use the money to buy things that will make your dog happy, and eager to please...

Make your choice, give your dog a name and then take your new companion back home with you and let the fun begin. See to the care and feeding of your four-legged friend, let him run free in your back garden or take him for a walk around the neighborhood.

Above all, sit back and enjoy...
