Poochini's Yard (a.k.a. Poochini) is an animated television series which originally aired globally in 2000, but did not debut in the United States until September 1, 2002.[1] The series follows the life of a dog named Poochini who runs away from home after his rich owner dies, gets captured by the dog pound and is adopted by an average American family.[2]
Despite being created and co-produced by the San Francisco-based entertainment company WildBrain, Poochini was not shown in the United States for over two years after its production. Co-produced and internationally distributed by Munich-based media group EM.TV,[3] Poochini was based on the award-winning short A Dog Cartoon (1999).
The series had only made 26 episodes with the final one airing in the United States on March 1, 2003. It aired in syndication and on The WB 100+ Station Group.
It was directed by Dave Marshall and Dave Thomas.[4] The series was one of the final projects of background artist Maurice Noble, who is credited as design and color consultant.
