AWESOME keep up the goog work.
Good, I thought it might be an ice cream. Maybe I just have a sweet tooth right now...
Thanks for all the great comments!
Rubber dog, or circus dog would have been a better hint. It was ok though.

Wonderfully written riddle, with great imagery I loved it
i thought it was a hot dog...
I did not get the fake dog part either.

Me too, Jimbooth. Lots of possible answers, but this one is the best.Thanks for posting.
It took me about 10 seconds to blow this one up and burst out the answer.
I got it! Fun. Nice one. Thanks!
I thought bubbles!!!
So close. but still wrong.

I thought of a crayon. They come in many shapes and sizes these days, and the lines drawn with a large crayon can be quite long.
The most simplest of pleasures for a child a Baloon ! and I MISSED IT!
The fake dog threw me off, but I realize you meant when they make baloon animals.
Nice wording, good teaser

I loved it! keep it up! I found it easy
I had a tough time coming up with the answer. Good teaser, even though I didn't get it.
good one!
i guess i think this was clever
but my first thought was honestly genitilia.

Very good teaser. If it hadn't been for the hint I would never have guessed them.

THE FIRST THING I THOUGHT OF WAS ONE OF THEM WEENY-DOGS. (dushhound) ??
A clever riddle. well worded & fun.
Very cute! I want a big red balloon and an icecream cone right now...if only!
Very cute!!
COOL!!!
I liked this one and even the hint didn't give me more brains Thanks
what is a dog do witha ballon?
The Hint is way too tricky...
Cute riddle Didn't look at the hint so I can't comment on it Great job
I also thought it could be clay or play-dough. You can roll it like a snake or into a ball... you can take it with you or keep it in your pocket.
Worst Hint Ever: a fake dog.
I don't really see how you were supposed to figure that out... but okay. Anyway, I thought it was pretty cute....
I am not kidding...I got it right away because of the poem. It just popped into my head that it was a balloon. Round, and long like a sausage.. clowns make them long like that all the time, and little kids enjoy them. What else could it be , but that? Good One!
I thought it was easy and cute. I had it by the 4th line. And I got the dog hint because at the local diner, on Sundays they have balloon artiests.
Good teaser, I too was thrown off by the fake dog hint. Of course it make perfect sense as soon as you read the answer.
The line about kids nailed it for me. Good one. Fun.
Well written and fun! Got it right away!
man, i thought it was a dog... guess thats what i get for not looking at the hint, huh? oh well, it was a really cute riddle
Loved it !!!
Gave it top rating for fun !!!
AND (as usual) found the comments to be OODLES of times more fun and interesting.
I think it's sad the current Braingle crowd seems chary of contributing comments. Really, really sad.

I actually guessed "lollipop." That works too.
Easy. After all the years of publishing, it's time to let this one float away.

Misread 'For those of few years' as 'For those first few years' , really threw me off I was thinking a dog, but then the clue made no sense.
I thought the answer was "Bowel Movement". It totally fits!
I'm with Babe. The answer was clear. I like this riddle because it is relatively abstract yet makes the solution clear. I think it was the reference to making kids happy that locked it in for me. I like that I'm not certain what it was that made me certain. Wait, what? Yeah.
