2 questions 1 about puppies the other about robots

1st question: i found a really cute puppy on modthesims but i dont know how to get it in my game because you can only buy adult dogs and the only ones for adoption are the two dull looking pups so how can i get it in my game?

2nd question: bit of a stupid question but i cant work it out i made one of them food robots i cant remember what they're called but it doesnt do anything it just hovers around then goes back to its base how do i get it to do something?

thanks for the help probably simple to everyone else but i cant work it out x

somewhat unrelated question to ur question.
where do you get the robot? o.o
what ep's do u have?

and i think that when u get a new puppy, if its in package format, it might be the breed of the dog..
so just go on create family and create the puppy with the downloaded template-type thing...
i really cant be sure ^^;; i installed pets only this week. lol [followed by seasons.]

with open for business theres a robot station and you can build all kinds of robots i only got it this week so im still working it out make sure you download some custom pets for your game the maxis ones are ugly!! thanks for your help x

Partial answer to #1: Put the package file in PetBreeds, not Downloads.

#2 Try clicking on the BASE rather than the robot.
