Pound Puppies is an animated TV special, later a Saturday morning cartoon, based on a line of plush dogs. The special was produced by Hanna-Barbera in 1985, and the series began on ABC the next year.
Overview
The main characters are a group of humanized dogs who live in a dog pound and help other dogs find loving homes. The canine heroes pretend to be normal dogs, except in the presence of Holly, the orphan girl who cares for them. Unfortunately, Holly's guardian, Katrina Stoneheart, hates dogs and is constantly plotting to kill the Pound Puppies.
In the second season of Pound Puppies, some of the dogs' personalities were changed. The Pound Puppies and Holly were now freedom fighters operating from an elaborate underground base, trying to save the dogs from Katrina, who was now running the pound in the manner of a concentration camp, and find lonely children to adopt them.
