A friend of mine is trying to remember the name of a toy her sister had when they were kids in the 80's... she wants to try to find one for her niece...

She says "It was a plastic dog that ate dog biscuits. If you put the biscuit in its mouth (it had ridges on it) and squeezed a plastic bone attached to it, the dog chomped it in bite by bite."

Since people on the DIS know everything, I thought I'd ask here and see if that rings a bell...?
 
I don't have a clue what they were called but I had a Goat that did the same thing.
 
Was that the toy dog that pooped?
 
:rotfl: I don't remember a dog that pooped, but one that peed. My Puppy Puddles. It drank water out of a bowl and then peed :rolleyes:
 

Gaylord the Pup???

First introduced in the early 1960's, Gaylord is still distinguished by his Bassett floppy ears, wrinkles, and hangdog stare. He's a loyal follower, tail wagging and head bobbing along. He even picks up his magnetic bone as he goes. Comes with plastic food bowl, a box of doggie bits, cardboard dog house, and a certificate of authenticity. Size 16"l, Weight 3 lbs. (Age 18mos.+)

This looks almost like the one in LadyBears post but with a name of "Good Puppy" :goodvibes

Seahunt, I think that is it! Thanks so much, I knew someone on the DIS would know!
 
OT but check out the pants on the kid in the "Good Puppy" ad. OMG WHAT was "fashion" thinking????? He might as well have been wearing a sign that says, "Beat me up and take my lunch money" :lmao:

Today's version is called madras. I've been trying to find a pair for my DS that will fit him. I can only find them for little kids and for size 32 waists and above. He's got a 29 inch waist.

Oh, and I don't worry about anyone trying to beat up my DS. He can handle himself. ;)
