Slinky Dog Spin is a zany adventure starring Andy’s good old pal Slinky Dog, the
classic toy that features a spring for a body. In the Toy Story movies, Slinky Dog
has often used this spring-body to help out his pals, Woody,
Buzz and the other toys in
Andy’s collection. Every few
minutes Slinky Dog invites
guests to climb aboard for a
ride as he runs around a large
dog bowl trying to catch his
own tail. Inspired by classic
“caterpillar” rides, the attraction
features vehicles that appear
to be placed inside of a large
spring, which together make up
the body of Slinky Dog. It is a
lot of fun for young children and
those young at heart.
