Treat Timer

The Treat Timer is a voice-activated dog biscuit dispenser that was featured in Arthur's TV Trouble. It costs $19.95. Arthur wanted to buy for his pet dog, Pal, and went to great lengths to raise the money to buy one. However, it malfunctioned often, and shot dog biscuit treats over the house and immediately frightened Pal when it did so. All sales for the toy were final, so Arthur could not get his money back. Its current whereabouts are unknown, although the back cover of the book shows it sitting next to a garbage bag.
