wow! wot a friend, he snorts ,moves his head and he loves it when u stroke him ,when you place something in his mouth he makes a chewing motion,he likes it when u sit on his back,he will either make a stomping noise when u bounce or play music.he takes 6 large batteries,we purchased him new 2 yrs ago for $600,but was only used till his batteries ran out,rest of time he has been in storage,would make a great christmas present.
