Boys and Barbies

The other day a commerical for Barbie Potty Training Pups came on the tv while all of my boys were watching cartoons and I was cleaning the kitchen:
I knew the boys would have something to say about it. Here is the conversation:
Parker: Ewwwwwwwwww! SICK!
Dallin: Why do girls like to play with toys that pee?
Dad: Seriously....that is so gross. Mom, do you know why girls like to play with puppies that go pee on newspapers?
Me: Nope, I sure don't. Maybe watching puppies pee is fun??
Dallin: Girls are so wierd. I don't get it.

I thought that was bad until today while I was trying to find a picture of the peeing pups. Apparently it gets WORSE people:
Thank heavens my kids didn't see a commercial for THIS particular Barbie. Seriously, does this toy teach young girls moral lessons about the responsibility of cleaning up after their pets or is the feces eating dog teaching impressionable youngsters that it is ok to consume their own excrement?

I guess we don't have to worry about it. After all, there are no Barbies and no puppies in this house!
