I remember the first time I found out about Pound Puppies. I was at my grandfather's house in Indiana, when a commercial for the toys came on TV. I got excited. I was crazy for stuffed dogs at that time. I really wanted a Pound Puppy! I finally got one a few months later. A grey Bulldog. I loved that dog. I even wrote a story about him for a contest in a stuffed animal magazine I used to get. You were supposed to write a story about an adventure you and your Pound Puppy had had. The prize was a bunch of Pound Puppy merchandise. My tale involved me and my Pound Puppy walking in the woods, where we encountered Bigfoot. Of course my Pound Puppy chased him off before he could attack. Unfortunately I didn't win. I had a bunch of Pound Puppy stuff as well. A lunchbox, colorforms, an electric toothbrush. And I never missed the cartoon. Pound Puppies are one of my favorite 80s toys.

I too had a Pound Puppy. Mine was brown and was a companion of mine for a long time. I also had a small one that was gray in color that my aunt bought me as a premium from a fast food restaurant. My nephew took claim to them when he was little, and unfortunately, my niece took the brown one to use as a chew toy for her Siberian Husky when he was a pup. I sure miss my Pound Puppy, and wish I'd have said "NO" when my nephew begged me to let him take it home.

I had a bunch of these. One had a little red bow on top of her head.

I had the one that resembled Cooler from the cartoon!

i had so many of these. the big ones were great too. i also had the board game. so much fun.

i had the pound purries, the cat. it was grey, i loved thet thing

Rather than buy the ready made Pound Puppies, I got a pattern and made one (even bought the Logo to sew on it) for my daughter. The other day while going through boxes, we found hers, unfortunately,the mice had gotten into the box and destroyed not only her Pound Puppy but also the girl mouse I had made for her and the boy mouse I had made for her brother. We both mourned the losses as we ended up tossing the entire box of stuffed memories into the trash.

I still have my big white and black Pound Puppy and 3 small white and black ones. My mom was a Pound Puppy collector back in the day! We may still have more lying in the attic somewhere.

I had cooler. In the cartoons he was the leader of the pack. I loved the cartoons they came out with it.

My daughters are grown now. I had a pattern way back then and i have a bunch of cut up ready to sew ones but somehow misplaced the instructions. Going to try to construct one without the pattern. Pattern is no longer available. Any body have a pattern for pound puppy look alikes?

There was a VHS filled with cartoons at the video store that I'd always make my mom rent. I had a large gray Pound Puppy and a lot of small ones. I even had some Pound Purries, but the dogs were my favorites.

I was crushed that my brother got one for his birthday and I had not a one.

Pound Puppys are back! www.poundpuppys.com

I still have my 2 80's Pound Puppies. I also have the registration engraved tag for the large one. I called him Spike. I remember how he used to suggle so well under my arm at night time. What a little darling. Love them so much and the cute little kennel boxes they came in.

i still, after 30 years, sleep with my pound puppy... his eyes are almost totaly rubbed off and hes faded from grey to very very pale grey.. he still snuggles great under my arm!

I remember getting my first Pound Puppy for Christmas 1986. I was still into stuffed animals, but at the time I thought I was getting too old for toys...But, I just HAD to have a Pound Puppy. He was gray with dark brown spots. Then, for my birthday the following year, I got the smaller version that was white with dark brown spots. I now buy them whenever I can find them in the thrift stores, and have a little collection going (along with many other 80's plush toys). They don't make them like they used to!

I had Cooler with the Blue satin jacket too. I miss my 80's toys thank goodness they are all coming back

I loved Pound Puppies! So good they have returned :-) I also had a Pound Puppy rip-off that my father bought me (which also came in a cardboard kennel) called a "Love Mutt", does anyone else remember these ones?

I loved them! I loved the cartoon too! My pound puppy was tan with dark brown spots. I forget his name though.

I never had a pound puppy of my own, but when my best friend was moving out of the city her mom gave me one she was throwing away. I still have it, my kids occassionally play with it.

Man! I had the house with the food dish and everything. I had the mom dog with the two small babies. I played with them a lot, and watched the cartoon on Saturdays. Thanks for the memories

My sister had a big one and a few smaller ones. We also had a VHS tape.

i use to have one when i was little and i lost it. it was a little brown puppy that i use to play with. i even had the carrier to put it in. looking back now im beginning to wish i had saved everything i had as a kid. sure miss these 80's toys. :(

I wasn't a child of the 80's, but I did have one of those miniature plush Pound Puppies when I was a kid. I remember they used to have two baskets of them at Target in the gift card section and I would have to beg my dad to buy them for me. I had some of the playsets, too; the van and the wedding chapel, for sure. I remember I had a small brown one with floppy ears that I took with me wherever I went. I lost it a while ago, but now I'm hunting for a new one. :)

I had lots of these, they were a favorite. I remember a commercial where pound puppies with big ears would fly around the room. When I finally got one, I assumed it would fly as well. I also got several from Hardee's where you could buy them for a time. You could also get the Pound Purries there.

I had several. The joy of walking into a Grace Bros store on Sat morning and seeing them look at you. Picking one and you loved it so much. They had certificates and everything. Simpler is sometimes better.

the pound puppy videos were GREAT! (you know to a 7 year old)

I watched the cartoon a lot and had the plushes and the carrier. I also had a pound purrie. I'm so glad that they brought back the pound puppies. Pound Puppies is now back on. You can watch it on Boomerang, if you have the channel. I have a pound puppy and a few of the old pound puppy books.

Does anyone know where to get the pound puppies playsets?My daughter wants one for her birthday.I loved them when i was little, she would have to see an old playset at a friends house I"m going crazy looking for this.I would love any help finding this .Thanks,Meliharm@aol.com

I still have my brown pound puppy, my dad bought it for me when I was about 6, I called him sooty and i still sleep with it occasionally. Sad but true.

I must say that this dog had to be the best thing ever to come along.. i recently was watchin cartoons with my son on Boomarang and POUND PUPPIES came on... That was sooo crazy!!!

I had several pound puppies and a pound puppy carrier (in which I think I tried to stuff one of my kittens into - didn't work!) Lots of fun - and again, I have no idea where they disappeared to :0(

SOOO adorable! the box looked like a little cage i remember..! So so sad.i used to BEG my parents to take me to the pound to go rescue as many dogs as possible because of this toy..

aww these were so cute!

I had a couple of them. One white with brown spots. And I think a brown one. I know I still have the with one in the attic. He's more gray than white now.

I had quite a few of these. I even had the pet carrier.

I'm 31 and I can't live without my pound puppy. I still sleep with mine after 21 years... She's like a real dog to me! Thank goodness my husband understands! I even took her along on our honeymoon.
