I might have the spelling wrong of Arnold the pig's last name. Could it be Mr. Ed, Lassie, Rin Tin Tin, Petey, etc
EDIT--animal puppets are okay.

1. Lambchop... so cute!

[debm55]

2. I have never in my life eaten lamb. All because of lambchops.

[Karadeniz]

3. Lambchop wins! I won't eat anyone's baby.... not to mention the adults!!!

[50 Shades Of Blue]

4. I was gonna go with Mr. Ed but now I'm going with Lambchop, LOL!

[Karadeniz]

7. There was a video about Lambchop and Shari Lewis and her daughter. Shari would use

Lambchop for bedtime story time. Well, the daughter would confess her secrets to Lambchop! Shari never, ever revealed to her daughter what she learned during those nighttime confessions!!! Smart lady!!

[50 Shades Of Blue]

21. ROFL!

16. Oh absolutely!

My parents were not big on gifts but I got a Lambchop puppet that I treasured until she disappeared. I was a devoted fan of Sherri Lewis.

12. Topogigio freaked me out.

[Zorro]

11. Eddie

Frasier. Eddie carried on like a real dog, although Arnold fit well in the surrealism of Green Acres, still an absurdly funny series.

[Skittles]

31. heh

[csziggy]

15. Mr. Ed, Trigger, or Champion - I was a horse crazy kid

Mr. Ed, was a horse of course, though I was annoyed by the concept of a talking horse. Trigger was Roy Rogers horse, flashy palomino. Champion was Gene Autry's horse, my favorite for a while partly because my parents gave me a plastic model horse I played with so much I broke one of his legs. Dad put a pin in to repair him, but I had to treat him carefully so it didn't break again.

17. How about cartoon characters?

I LOVED Rocky and Bullwinkle!

[debm55]

19. I added a thread for you. Enjoy.
