I was so excited earlier this winter when I discovered the Woof & Co. plush dogs at Walmart. I felt like they were unique and adorable newcomers to the doll market and I gave them a mostly glowing review. My only complaints were that they have cheap (and sometimes unattractive) clothing, and no head articulation. And there were a few irritating manufacturing defects as well. But overall, I was really impressed that Sunny Days Entertainment had come up with such a cool toy.
But, as it often happens, one of you shed a whole new light on the situation. I got an anonymous comment that the Woof & Co. dogs are basically knockoffs of the European Lucky Doggy line by Orange Toys. I absolutely hate that I featured the copycats (dupe dogs?) before I even knew about the originals. Sheesh. So, as soon as I learned about Lucky Doggy, I rushed over to my trusted European doll source, Dolls and Dolls, and ordered a few of these plush pooches for review:
