Hasbro has teamed up with Loungefly on a collection marking 40 years of Pound Puppies.
The collection includes a backpack with a front zipped pocket resembling a chocolate brown Pound Puppy. A slim pocket, just below the Pound Puppy, holds an ‘adoption certificate’ card holder. The Pound Puppy heart logo appears on the front as well, and a silicone heart-shaped zipper charm that says ‘Adopt Me!’
Elsewhere, the Pound Puppies wallet features a plush applique of a Pound Puppy, as well as an applique heart in red that says ‘Adopt Me!’, while a tote bag also boasts a Pound Puppies print.
