PLUTO (5010)

Pluto, also called Pluto the Pup, is a cartoon character created in 1930 at Walt Disney Productions. He is a yellow-orange color, medium-sized, short-haired dog with black ears. ... Officially a mixed-breed dog, he made his debut as a (nameless) bloodhound in the Mickey Mouse cartoon The Chain Gang where he was on the trail of escaped prisoner Mickey Mouse. After that, his name was to changed to Rover and he became Minnie Mouse's dog. Later on he became Mickey Mouse's dog (and best pal) and his name was changed to Pluto in honor of the discovery of the new "ninth planet" in our solar system. Our Pluto Full-body Hand Puppet has a movable mouth and forelegs. Click on his picture for a larger view.

Howlbert Hound is one of those "uncertain" breeds of dogs which are unlikely to win awards at dog shows (or even be admitted).  He has claimed, at times to be both a Russian Wolfhound and a Shetland Sheepdog (but we suspect that he is a cross between an Irish Sitter and a Lapso Fatso).  Frustrated at being a ballerina (too many legs), he now bides his time by chasing cats up trees (which he considers great sport). Dressed in a snappy sportshirt, khaki slacks and tennies, his shades are never far away. A rod that can be easily switched from his left hand to his right paw... uh, hand, allows swift and decisive gestures, as well as friendly waving at attractive poodles.

KENNELWORTH HOUND (P19626)

Ken says that he's a Golden Retriever but we think he is more likely a Golden Loser. He trained for years to be a Seeing Eye Dog and then was fired when he lost his first client (in the park, he thinks). He then went to work for the Municipal Utility District as a gas leak detector in the city sewer system but was terminated after getting lost the first day (because it's hard to see a map down there). He's currently doing much better at the Motorcycle Shop Botique where he greets customers while modeling the latest in motorcycle wear. Kennelworth Hound stands 28 inches tall and has an arm rod that can be attached to either hand.

GORDON ALLIGATOR (GS4820A)

Gordon Gator here is one of the nicest, most friendly alligators you would ever want to know and it's unfortunate that he's currently unemployed. He was "let go" from his job as a "Greeter" at Mega Mart because he scared the customers away when he smiled. He was laid off as a Balloon Inflator at children's birthday parties due to "excess poppage." He couldn't even sell brushes door-to-door without people screaming, fainting and slamming their doors. Because of his large array of shining teeth, he has decided to send his resume to a toothpaste company hoping to be hired as a brushing consultant. Gordon is 28 inches tall and comes with a detachable arm rod. Gordon is also available wearing the same shirt but with "Florida" on it (GS4820B).

SHAGGY DOG (GS4812)

Do you remember the story about the boy who told so many wild and exaggerated stories that he turned into a Shaggy Dog? No? Why there were even a couple of movies made about this fellow. Honest. He's 28 inches tall and has rod that may be clipped to either arm for realistic movement.

LARGE MONKEYS

Looking a bit like rejects from a "See no Evil - Hear no Evil - Speak no Evil" poster photo-shoot, this chummy trio of 32 inch tree-climbers includes (left to right) Baboon (sold out, sorry), Mandrill (sold out, sorry) and Brown Monkey (NP8063L).

Yes, the Baboon has a bald red bottom but we are far too dignified here to display it!

BIG BROWN MONKEY (P19625)

Our Big Brown Monkey is definately BIG at 28 inches tall and does come with a detachable arm rod like our best ventriloquist style puppets. We would say his color is more blonde than brown but is quite beautiful no matter the shade.
