Fluppy Dogs

Fluppy Dogs : Fluppy Dogs were a line of plush puppies who resembled sheepdogs as well as Dougal from The Magic Roundabout. They came in various colours and had bushy fur coats made of yarn. Some came with a walker-like thing that you could use to take them outside with you. They also came with records to make it feel like you were actually getting a real dog when you bought it.

There was also a Fluppy Dogs Play-Doh Set to learn how to groom your dogs. It had all the brushes etc, plus a little plastic lid that you placed Play-Doh in until it came out of lots of holes to look like the hair of Fluppy Dogs.

A pilot for a cartoon series was made by Disney in 1986, in which Fluppy Dogs travelled to different worlds with the help of a magical key. They were searching for their homeworld, and in the process ended up on ours. Unfortunately, only the pilot exists, as the series was never made... like many other would-be hits of our time.
