Poochini (also known as Poochini's Yard) is a fun cartoon show about a dog named Poochini. It first aired around the world on February 2, 2000. However, kids in the United States didn't get to see it until September 7, 2002.
The story is about Poochini, a grey dog with black ears, who is a Hound mix. He lives a rich life until his owner passes away. After that, Poochini runs away from home. He ends up getting caught by the dog pound. Luckily, an average American family adopts him, and his adventures begin!
