Sony announced a new addition Wednesday to the litter of Aibo robot dogs.

The Aibo ERS-31L will sport a new look, similar to a pug or bulldog, and include new features such as digital photo-taking capability, 200 new behaviors and a 75-word vocabulary. The electronic mutt will sell for $599 and will be available starting June 10 at retailers and through Sony’s online store.
