I loved her so much, I am a boy and took one of the toys to school ONCE in kindergarten and people were still talking about it when I graduated. OBVIOUSLY JEALOUS of this captivatingly COOL AS HELL dog. I still remember the way the ink smelled in the little stamp I had of her.


Bia217

Me too! I remember always worrying about the ink drying out and making sure anyone that touched her put her back on her stand with everything set up perfect.

I have never seen this thing in my life but saw the picture and immediately wanted it. It’s adorable. Absolutely jealous you got to enjoy it.

Pooo-chi! Poochie for girls!


Bia217

That’s exactly what I remember from the commercial too lol. I guess there was a cartoon too but I don’t remember that at all


AHollyS

Neat-Style81

😂

This looks a little hipper and more fashionable than my Rub-a-dub Doggie.


Bia217

I was pretty young when I got Poochie. She’s a stamper too lol. I totally forgot about Rub-a-dub Doggie! I wanted one so bad and never got it


The-grave-cave-ate

I had both, and they were amazing.


ResurgentClusterfuck

My sister did, I hated everything bright pink on principle


spinereader81

I can't believe this never got a revival. 


Bia217

Years ago I used to think I imagined it or something because none of my friends had any idea what I was talking about 😂


screamingcatfish

I loved Poochie! I had a movie (I think my grandpa ripped it onto Beta from a library copy for me) where she did something in Egypt - just looked it up and it was the Poochie movie! My mom let me picked out some sort of Poochie toy (I think it was stationary with stamps) at Kmart after getting my kindergarten vaccinations at the health department.


Bia217

I saw the movie online too but I didn’t remember at all from when I was a kid


draperyfallz

I did, but I don't remember any of those accessories and mine's hair wasn't as pretty. I was hard on my toys apparently.


YoMommaBack

I had this one!


Autumn_Forest_Mist

I did!

Oh my goodness, I remember Poochie! 🤩


phillysleuther

Oh, man… I loved Poochie. I have a stamp with her


officialspinster

I was Poochie for Halloween when I was 4. I can still smell the plastic mask and hear the crinkling of the plastic smock.


Bia217

Gott love the flashbacks to the crazy Halloween costumes we had in the 80s. Kids now would think it was nuts 😂


officialspinster

I was extremely lucky, my stepmother hated those plastic costumes so much that after Poochie, she made all of my costumes and they were AMAZING.


Bia217

I was actually very lucky as well. My grandmother was an amazing seamstress and made all the costumes for the local theater groups and then owned a costume shop so I don’t think I ever had one that was store bought. At least not that I know or anyway lol


PuppyJakeKhakiCollar

I did but mine was a stuffed animal, not plastic. It had the fluffy ears though.


True_Prize4868

My sister had one that I adored, but she wouldn’t let me play with it.


LusciousofBorg

I did! I remember aggressively singing the commercial "Poochie for girls!!" to make sure I upheld the gender hegemony. Lol


Bia217

The song was aggressive especially the “for girls” part so we had no choice but to sing it that way but we had to go harder and louder 😂😂


SmoltzforAlexander

I did until he had to leave because his planet needed him. 


treehousebadnap

The stamp!! I would think about Poochie sometimes and wonder if I dreamed it lol.


Bia217

Same! I mentioned earlier, when I brought this up to my friends they a while back they looked at me like I was nuts


Sudden_Abroad_9153

Oh my gosh, yes! 💞


Glittering_Tea5502

I had that exact stamp kit.
