In 2010, The Hub relaunched the Pound Puppies franchise with Paul Germain and Joe Ansolabehere, the creators of Recess, along with Wendy Moss Klein and Nancy Steingard at the helm.Like the original series, a team of canines finds homes for puppies (and occasionally adult dogs), often by escaping the pound in the style of The Great Escape and Hogan's Heroes. This time around, the pound is run by Leonard McLeish, a dog catcher who is ambitious, but mostly ineffectual and ultimately harmless.The new squad consists of team leader Lucky; right-hand dog and no-nonsense second-in-command Cookie; Squirt, the streetwise chihuahua with connections across the city; resident genius and inventor Strudel; and Niblet, the big, strong sheepdog with an even bigger heart.Along with Mr. Nut-Nut, Sparky and the other helper squirrels, the team from Shelter 17 is responsible for matching the right pup with the right person. The shelter's success is even occasionally recognized by humans somehow... which McLeish gladly takes credit for whenever he can, much to the chagrin of the ones really responsible.The series ran from October 2010 to November 2013 airing a total of 65 episodes in 3 seasons, and as of today, no plans for a fourth season have been confirmed.A number of episodes can now be found on DVD: | |

Trekkie: Captain Randy in the episode "Zoltron". Fat physique, dressed in a uniform similar to those from Enterprise, paused like Kirk, had a "Captain's Log", wanted to mind-meld with the titular dog, watched "Star Voyage: Deep Space 90", referred to his mother's garage as the Autopod, excited over seeing a phony flying saucer (even going so far as to say he was okay with the beings in the saucer experimenting on him). And this line, after the saucer disappeared and Zoltron escaped: | |

Timmy in a Well | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_15070c2b | comment |
Timmy in a Well: In the episode "Snow Problem", Tundra dug out a competing sled dog and musher Jean-Luc Glaciaire, then made his way down a cliff to attach a hook to allow Lucky and his team to pull up a second dog. While it is a fact of the Pound Puppies universe that dogs (among other animals) are smarter and more capable than humans realize, they rarely act so intelligently in front of people. Hence while Lucky was impressed, Glaciaire was even more so. Also in the episode "Salty" we meet Pelican Kevin who has this exchange with Salty: The trope is Lampshaded in the aforementioned Shout-Out during Lucky's pep talk in "Snow Problem". | |

You Never Did That for Me | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_16b7dccd | comment |
You Never Did That for Me: Lucky's feelings in "I Never Barked For My Father" on how Slick treated tagalong puppy Chip as compared to him when he was younger. As you might expect, it's much more complicated than that. Chip is Slick's son and hence Lucky's brother. Slick never told Chip because he didn't want him to feel the same way about him as Lucky did. | |

This Is What the Building Will Look Like | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_16bbbd7c | comment |
This Is What the Building Will Look Like: In "Toyoshiko!", Milton Feltwaddle took advantage of his bosses' inability to speak English to give McLeish a model of Shelter 17 with the office building of his employer attached to it as part of a ploy to learn how Shelter 17 was so successful at placing dogs. Unfortunately for Feltwaddle, his scheme played too heavily into the ambitions of McLeish, who wanted to impress the Japanese executives by getting a head start on the building. The building was only a congratulatory gift from the Japanese executives in recognition of the pound's placement record (Feltwaddle played it up to get McLeish excited), and robot dog Toyoshiko was the means by which Feltwaddle intended to gather intelligence. | |

| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_1e7487cd | comment |
Breaking the Fourth Wall: At the end of "The Accidental Pup Star", there's a reprise of Rebound's "Happy, Happy To See You" featuring the main gang, the Super Secret Pup Club, and the adoptee, Roxie. While they look at each other during the song, just after the song is done and just before the credits, all the dogs look straight at the viewer and smile. | |

Cute Kitten | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_1f0f3d6f | comment |
Cute Kitten: Generally, the adoptees of the Pound Puppies' rival organization, the Kennel Kittens, to potential human companions. In "Catcalls", the mother and son were cat lovers and preferred the adoptee offered by the Happy Valley Shelter team. The father comes around, as does the mother with puppies. Lily in "Kennel Kittens Return" is so much so she manages to completely win over Squirt, who was pretending to be a cat to steal back Strudel's latest invention that the Kennel Kittens had swiped earlier in the episode. Spoons and Teensy in "Hello Kitten". | |

Ambiguous Situation | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_1f6983f7 | comment |
Ambiguous Situation: What was Ralph's role in "Once a Ralph, Always A Ralph"? Was he a dog who wanted to uncover the Pound Puppies operation for the first human who showed him love? Did he work with the Kennel Kittens and have a change of heart, was his true goal to help the Pound Puppies all along, or was he indifferent to the whole thing? For that matter, was he an apathetic, lazy dog that just wanted to chew on shoes, or was he a Brilliant, but Lazy mastermind... that just wanted to chew on shoes? Maybe... **wink** | |

In "Hail to the Chief", Cookie and Squirt sit out on the mission leaving Strudel as the schemer, Niblet as the stupid one, and Lucky as the powerless one. | |

The Complainer Is Always Wrong | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_2711e392 | comment |
The Complainer Is Always Wrong: Nicely deconstructed in "Lucky the Dunce." After Lucky is hit with Strudel's "data processing scrambler" and made into a simpleton like Niblet, Cookie, Strudel, and Squirt are upset—they need his brain to place puppies—while Niblet is thrilled, because he finally has a friend who's just like him. Rather than simply saying that Niblet is wrong for going against what the majority thinks, the episode is careful to show both sides of the story, including Dunce!Lucky's perspective (he loves his new, simpler self) and Niblet's own hurt feelings. Though Lucky is brought back to normal at the end, the episode as a whole raises interesting questions about friendship, sacrifice, and difficult decisions, instead of stating a simple Aesop about doing what the group wants. | |

Promotion to Opening Titles | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_2828fd9a | comment |
Promotion to Opening Titles: Each member of the "Super Secret Pup Club" appears in the second season opening. It is justifiable for Rebound, as she had three episodes in the first season centered around her, and appeared in two others. It is somewhat understandable for Cupcake, as she was in the penultimate episode of the first season, "Mutternal Instincts", and likely would have returned anyhow since she was adopted by Cookie's family. Patches' episode debut, however, was in the third episode of the second season. Not only did he make it onto the season two opening from the start, he was on the cover art for the "Homeward Pound" DVD, which only has first-season episodes. | |

Hidden Depths | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_2dc0d2bf | comment |
Hidden Depths: Niblet can walk and dance quite well on his hind legs because he used to perform in the circus as a dancing dog. Strudel is quite knowledgeable about dog shows because she used to be a show dog herself (though she's quick to add she has never actually won). Squirt (aka Wings) was once a championship Frisb— um, that is, Zoomit champion dog, thanks to his ears. | |

Once an Episode: A dog finds a loving home, either through adoption or by being returned there. (However, the adoption is sometimes secondary or incidental to the main plot.) There have technically been three exceptions where no dog was adopted: "Toyoshiko!", "Kennel Kittens Return", and "The Fraud Princess". In "Kennel Kittens Return" and "Hello Kitten", it is a kitten, Lily, that's adopted. In the other two, someone (Strudel and Agatha, respectively) did in fact bond with the titular dog. | |

Julie is voiced by Tara Strong, who voices Twilight Sparkle in My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. Who better to voice smooth-talking ladies dog chihuahua Antonio than the Taco Bell Dog?

Pun Based Titles: Plenty, but just to name a few: "Prince and the Pupper" (the Prince and Pauper episode), "Nightmare On Pound Street" (the Halloween Episode), "Catcalls" (where the Kennel Kittens made their debut), "Rebel Without A Collar" (where the bad boy free-roaming coyote shows up at the pound), and "Homeward Pound" (where Niblet and Squirt get lost in Canada and have to find their way back home). Of special note would be "The Fraud Princess", because beside the play on "frog prince", there's also the fact that the dog, named Princess, is a fraud by gender (it's a boy) and by initial impression (it's an accomplice in an attempted robbery). | |

Speech-Impaired Animal | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_45d74260 | comment |
Speech Impaired Animals: The squirrels. Their squeaking is perfectly intelligible to other squirrels as well as Strudel, but not as much to the other dogs. (The gist of the squeaks will be made obvious to the viewer if the joke necessitates it.) In fact, Strudel needs them, as the squirrels have manual abilities that dogs of the world don't, and hence, she wouldn't be able to construct or finish many of her gadgets, and the ones she could complete would take much longer. The chipmunks seen in "The Prince and the Pupper" also belong here. However, they're not quite as nice as the squirrels. This may go for all rodents, as the hamster in "Rebel Without A Collar" and the guinea pig in "Lucky Gets Adopted" also are capable of communicating with dogs. | |

Civilized Animals: Lucky's planning, Cookie's organization skills, Strudel's gadgets, Squirt's ability to find outside equipment (and both Strudel and Squirt's skill at utilizing networks of varying Speech Impaired Animals), and Niblet's ability to make a passable imitation of a human when necessary are but a few examples of why Lucky and the gang land here instead of Talking Animal territory. Watch closely, and you'll notice that the dogs will make slightly humanlike gestures, such as placing a paw or leg on or around a puppy in comfort or encouragement, or holding each other back with a leg. Naturally, as cats are the equals to dogs in this show (even if both species thinks they are superior to their counterparts), they fit here as well. Coyotes also belong here, though Lucky may beg to differ. Wolves do as well, though Lucky's probably not arguing here. | |

Artistic License – Paleontology | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_4c4bebf4 | comment |
Artistic License – Paleontology: In the episode "Lucky Gets Adopted", a flashback revealing how humans and dogs came together shows a primitive canine called Woof Barktooth defending a family of prehistoric humans from a Smilodon. There are two problems with this: First of all, Smilodon and prehistoric man never met in real life due to living on different continents (Smilodon lived in the Americas while humans were confined to Europe and Africa at the time) and former dying out by the time the latter came to its territory. The only big cat that humans would have interacted with at the time was the Eurasian Cave Lion. Second, the Smilodon is depicted with a long tail like that of a lion. In reality, Smilodon had a short, stubby tail. On the other hand, it is referred to correctly as a Saber tooth cat instead of the usual, inaccurate moniker of "Saber tooth tiger". They also play the All Cavemen Were Neanderthals trope straight in the episode as well. | |

Interspecies Friendship | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_4f4bbeff | comment |
Interspecies Friendship: Between Spoons the kitten and Bumper the pup in "Hello Kitten", since each of them were alone before they met. Both the Pound Puppies and Kennel Kittens are against any friendships between them since they can never work out. But the Super Secret Pup Club and another cat named Teensy disagree. | |

Stupidity-Inducing Attack: Well, "attack" isn't exactly right, but in "Lucky the Dunce," Strudel develops a machine that can scramble data processors. When Lucky's inadvertently hit with it, he becomes a happily dimwitted idiot, and Strudel realizes that brains count as "data processors," too. | |

Plot-Mandated Friendship Failure: What happened to Niblet and Squirt in "Homeward Pound" after Squirt had a bit too much of Niblet's complaining, and Squirt got a little too pointed with his insults. (It should be noted that the peril Squirt faced after the split likely would not have happened had Niblet not decided to leave; rather they would have probably continued in the wrong direction.) | |

Recurring Characters: On a show with writers who love continuity, it should come as no surprise that there is no shortage on characters who have made multiple appearances on the show. In short, if you can imagine the character being of possible use in a future plot, he or she probably will. | |

Cats Are Mean | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_58e43f17 | comment |
Cats Are Mean: Zig-Zagged – it seems to depend on the cat. Mr. Cuddlesworth's feline friend Madame Pickypuss seemed to be initially in "The Prince and the Pupper", but she was angry with Squirt for attempting to imitate her companion, Cuddlesworth. They were on much better terms in "The Ruff-Ruff Bunch". The Cats of the Alley from the episode "Taboo" definitely were. The Happy Valley Shelter cats ("Catcalls", "McLeish Unleashed", "Kennel Kittens Return", "Once A Ralph, Always A Ralph", "Hello Kitten") have both their mean and nice moments. Mittens and Lily, the kittens the Kennel Kittens wanted to place in "Catcalls" and "Kennel Kittens Return" respectively, didn't have a mean bone in their collective bodies. Puss Puss Galore and her minions from "The Pups Who Loved Me" return to playing the trope straight. Averted with the cat who was mistaken to be a mummy cat brought to life in "Fright at the Museum". Also averted with Spoons and Teensy in "Hello Kitten". Spoons was best friends with a pup named Bumper until they were separated. She learns that Bumper has found his perfect person who's also her perfect person. However, the Kennel Kittens (mostly Ace) don't want her socializing with dogs, so they try placing her with other candidates that aren't so perfect, forcing her to run away. The Super Secret Pup Club do everything they can to get her to her perfect person with help from Teensy. | |

Nearly Normal Animals: The pigeons are Largely Normal. The dogs can communicate with the pigeons and they will understand and carry out the canine's request. Indeed, the pigeons' response can also be understood. The reason they are here instead of with the Speech Impaired Animals is because they only coo and peck. | |

Heroic Sacrifice: When Toyoshiko realizes she has been recording images that could, in Lucky and Squirt's opinion, "ruin the whole operation", she does herself what Lucky insisted should have been done in the first place. She erases her own memory, via a giant magnet. Strudel sheds some tears, and there is a chance you might as well. Strudel brought Toyo back after removing her capture card. | |

Canon Welding: In the Hasbro Comic Universe title Revolutionaries, in flashbacks of Mike Power's childhood (who later joined the Adventure Team, predecessor to the G.I. Joe task force), he's shown to have a puppy named Smarts, who is obviously based off Lucky from Pound Puppies. The Easter egg list in the final issue explicitly states that Smarts is not an alternate reality counterpart of Lucky, but his ancestor, and also says that Lucky got his full name, "Lucky Smarts", after Mike Power's dog. So, yes, the 2010 incarnation of Pound Puppies officially exists in the same world as Transformers, G.I. Joe, Jem and the Holograms, ROM, Micronauts, Action Man, M.A.S.K., Clue and Visionaries, being the only non-comic entry within this shared universe. | |

Meaningful Name: Nearly every dog/puppy as well as some humans (Mr. McLeish being the most prominent example). This holds for the main team as well. Lucky's plans tend to work out at the end, Strudel is a dachshund and speaks with a German accent, Squirt is a tiny chihuahua, and Niblet seemingly eats everything in sight. Cookie's name may be a little harder to see, but consider how tough she is in this exchange from "Rebel Without A Collar": | |

Fantastic Slurs: A guarantee where there's Fantastic Racism, isn't it? A noteworthy occurrence happens in "The Ruff Ruff Bunch" where Madame Pickypuss admits to calling Cuddlesworth a "pussycat", which to her as a cat is endearing, but, as explained by Lucky, is the equivalent of calling her a "mouse", a fact that drove the point home for her. From "Mutternal Instincts": Just before the shelter was to host a conference of Pound Puppies agents from around the world, eight puppies were brought to the pound by dog catcher Ketchum. When some of the team expressed doubt in their ability to get the puppies adopted and prepare for the meeting, Cookie challenged them: | |

Tertiary Sexual Characteristics: Strudel has a purple collar with a pink Pound Puppies medallion and long eyelashes. Cookie is a bit more complicated. At first, she didn't have anything. (Her collar is black.) After seeing Dolly flirt her way into getting the male dogs to fawn over her in the episode "The General", she becomes jealous. By the end, Dolly gives Cookie the pink bow that she's seen with from that point on. | |

In the episode "Snow Problem", Tundra dug out a competing sled dog and musher Jean-Luc Glaciaire, then made his way down a cliff to attach a hook to allow Lucky and his team to pull up a second dog. While it is a fact of the Pound Puppies universe that dogs (among other animals) are smarter and more capable than humans realize, they rarely act so intelligently in front of people. Hence while Lucky was impressed, Glaciaire was even more so. | |

| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_73470774 | comment |
Similar Squad: The Happy Valley Shelter Kennel Kittens are the feline equivalent to Lucky's team, with almost identical fur patterns and very similar names. (Also see Psycho Rangers above.) The Super Secret Pup Club is an obvious nod to the Cutie Mark Crusaders. | |

Played for Laughs in Patches' takes on three previous episodes (including the one mentioned above) in "The Super Secret Pup Club" where the little Dalmatian heroically appears out of nowhere and barks at the bears until they retreat. It gets pretty ridiculous when the second scenario features a bear appearing in a construction yard and the last has five of them appear out of nowhere in a suburb. | |

The Infiltration | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_7bd8307f | comment |
The Infiltration: Squirt's deliberate capture and eventual acceptance into the Kennel Kittens (at least, from the perspective of the Pound Puppies) in order to retrieve Strudel's invention in "Kennel Kittens Return", despite the terrible disguise and (initially) laughable pretense of cat behavior. He even gets a shot in at cats "being indifferent to [their] human" without a reaction by the Kennel Kittens. | |

Potty Failure: When one of the captures growls menacingly at Olaf, the assistant dog catcher, in "Rebel Without A Collar", he tells them to play nice while he goes to change his pants. Complete with uncomfortable walk. Puddles of "Puddles the Problem Pup" is all about this trope. Half of the plot comes from the Pound Puppies' attempts at housebreaking him. | |

| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_80b5924 | comment |
Left Hanging: The episode, "Homeward Pound" has kind of an anticlimactic ending. When Lucky finds Niblet and Squirt in Canada, they just have a cooked fish dinner, and that's the end. We never see them return home and never learn if they even do. Though they do seem to be back at Shelter 17 perfectly fine in the next episode. The series finale episode, "Lucky Has to Move" left a lot of unanswered questions, plus the ending kind of opened the door for another season in some ways. | |

Where the Hell Is Springfield?: The location of the city where the Shelter 17 Pound Puppies are based (or heck, even the name of the city itself) is never revealed. However there are a few hints to its location though-out the series. The Architecture of the pound is a style based off of Spanish architecture in the Americas and common in former Spanish colonies. That, coupled with the fact that its a coastal city and there is a desert nearby seem to indicate that it may be in California. | |

Parental Bonus | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_86daf505 | comment |
Parental Bonus: From "Quintuplets": From "Rebel Without A Collar" (with a dash of Does This Remind You of Anything?): In "Taboo", the dog the team matches with a person before encountering the episode's namesake puppy is an Afghan with long, light brown fur named Twiggy. While her real-life namesake is a beautiful and well-known model and singer, she isn't someone the average ten-year-old will be terribly familiar with. The car Captain Randy drives in "Zoltron" is a near spot-on model of an AMC Gremlin. Similarly, the vehicle Mr. Julius (voiced by George Takei) drives in "My Fair Rebound" is easy to make out as a stand-in for a Hummer. While that is something kids might recognize, the implications of the Hummer being pink and Hummer owners supposedly compensating for something just might get by the young ones. In "Olaf In Love", the team based their attempts to help Olaf and his date connect on the dating shows Niblet likes to watch. Niblet knows what happens throughout the shows, which, according to him, ends with them saying "I love you", but is unsure of what happens after the credits. At the end of the episode when Olaf and Gertrude, the town librarian get together, both he and Strudel express interest in finding out what happens after the credits. | |

Bait-and-Switch: In "The Ruff Ruff Bunch", when Cuddlesworth talks about marking territory with scent, he looks like he's about to pee on a fire hydrant, but it then turns out that he meant they were going to mark their territory by leaving scented candles. In “Beauty is Only Fur Deep�, Champ tells the Pound Puppies the story of how he lost is fur in flashback. He keeps coming to possible moments to where he lost his fur (which Niblet keeps interrupting the story thinking that’s how it happened), but it didn’t. He actually lost his fur from eating a slice of boysenberry pie. Turns out he’s allergic to boysenberries. | |

Bears Are Bad News | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_8d718b9e | comment |
Bears Are Bad News: Played with and ultimately subverted in "Homeward Pound". While Niblet initially heeds Squirt's advice toward the bears he encountered after their split, he realizes those bears are cubs, and they offer him some of the honey they were eating. Things seem to take a turn for the worse when the Mama Bear comes back, but it turns out she's friendly, as she saves Squirt at Niblet's (off-screen) request. When Lucky and the Royal Canadian Pound Puppies find Niblet and Squirt, they were stuffed after eating fish the bears caught for them. The bears were also kind enough to catch fish for the rescue party as well. Played for Laughs in Patches' takes on three previous episodes (including the one mentioned above) in "The Super Secret Pup Club" where the little Dalmatian heroically appears out of nowhere and barks at the bears until they retreat. It gets pretty ridiculous when the second scenario features a bear appearing in a construction yard and the last has five of them appear out of nowhere in a suburb. | |

Crazy Cat Lady: A rare male example in "Hello Kitten". The Kennel Kittens places Spoons in one, even though he's not really her special person. The reason is obvious, due to never letting his cats go outside and collects hairballs. Since he has so many cats already, he likely didn't even notice Spoons is gone after the Super Secret Pup Club rescue her. | |

Five-Man Band | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_92587498 | comment |
While the Super Secret Pup Club fit this trope to a tease, there is one episode where the main Five-Man Band team of dogs becomes a Comic Trio. In "Hail to the Chief", Cookie and Squirt sit out on the mission leaving Strudel as the schemer, Niblet as the stupid one, and Lucky as the powerless one. | |

Continuity Nod | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
In "Squawk", the plot revolves around the Mayor getting a parrot to cozy up to the pet owners of the city, and later reveals that he doesn't like "dumb animals" or pets. In "Nightmare on Pound Street", not only does the Mayor adopt a puppy named Freddy for his kids, he mentioned he once had a similarly hideous yet adorable dog himself when he was a child. That might not be so bad, except for the producers' love for continuity nods (see above) and that one of McLeish's signature qualities is sidling up to bigwigs.note It isn't even as if they've forgotten Freddy existed; Rebound retrieves him during the Christmas Episode from the Mayor's mansion. (Would McLeish ever forget a favor he's done for the Mayor?) | |

Status Quo Is God | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_a6e8221e | comment |
Status Quo is "Dog": You didn't really think the Pound Puppies and Kennel Kittens were going to call off their rivalry for good, did you? It might have seemed that Lucky's adoption wouldn't stick, however his human Dot came to play an increasingly larger role not only in his personal life, but his work life as well. An example of the latter is "No More S'Mores", where Dot plays crucial roles in Lucky's attempts to bring a kid and a puppy together. A good instance of the former is the episode "Lucky Has to Move", where Lucky asks Dot to help him keep her family from moving in order not to break up his team. | |

Welcome Episode: The series premiered with the episode "The Yipper Caper".

Thinking Out Loud: In "Bone Voyage", Mrs. McLeish received a day spa treatment during a cruise courtesy of the ship's captain, who was smitten with her. While relaxing after a cucumber facial, Agatha, thinking she was speaking to the ship masseuse, said that while she could appreciate the captain's love of the ship, she couldn't really enjoy herself without her puppy. Rebound, who was afraid Mrs. McLeish was leaving her for good and followed her onto the ship, was there to hear her. | |

I Was Named "My Name" | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_b467048b | comment |
I Was Named "My Name": Sometimes, the new adopters change the name of their dog, such as Yipper!Bob ("The Yipper Caper"), Tyson!Elvis ("King of the Heap"), or Taboo!Lucky ("Taboo"). However, as with Rebound, the adopting human is quite likely to keep the name the dog is called by the other dogs. An interesting instance came in "Catcalls" where the adoptive puppy and kitten, Wagster and Mittens, were initially called Patches and Stripes by the adoptive siblings (to the bemusement of both the Pound Puppies and the Kennel Kittens, as the original names were taken from patterns and the new names... weren't) before the children renamed them their original names the second time around. | |

Robot Dog: Toyoshiko, Bark Friend Machine from, well, "Toyoshiko! Bark Friend Machine". Toyoshiko is so much like a living dog that Strudel goes from thinking of her as "an endearing piece of technology" to developing a friendship with her. (However, the way Toyo initiates the friendship, and often how she talks, is quite mechanistic.) Suffice it to say that while Toyo is indeed a robot buddy, she's not simply a Robot Buddy. | |

Anti-Hero | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_beb9a361 | comment |
Anti-Hero/Anti-Villain: The Kennel Kittens have a noble goal and operation similar to the Pound Puppies in finding kittens their perfect people. However, they (especially Ace) are willing to use underhanded methods to achieve such means. They are especially keen about sabotaging the Pound Puppies' own operations (when the Pound Puppies, despite their equal contempt for their feline counterparts, generally leave them alone unless provoked). | |

Woobie of the Week | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_bf4a5862 | comment |
Woobie of the Week: Every episode, there is an animal (usually dogs or puppies obviously, but on a few occasions, not) that needs the help of the team. Often it's to find a home or to find their way back to a home they already have, but, again, not always. | |

| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_c1e6f5bd | comment |
Don't Split Us Up: The reason the adoption in the episode "Quintuplets" was so hard for Lucky and his crew to accomplish at first was because the titular quintuplets didn't want to be adopted separately. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Shelter 17 is an allusion to Stalag 17. Both the episode title and the adoptee's name (Freddy) in the Halloween Episode, "A Nightmare On Pound Street". In "Snow Problem", after the team had a rough first day of sled racing, Lucky tried a pep talk: In "The K9 Kid", the featured puppy of the episode wanted to become a police dog. Upon approaching some rambunctious fellow future adoptees who have broken a garden gnome, she said: When Feltwaddle uses his computer to match dogs and potential adoptees in "McLeish Unleashed", the first human is paired with a large brown dog with a blue Pound Puppies collar. It could be a coincidence, but in "Mutternal Instincts", Olaf mentioned he was going to send adoption flyers to a Third Street School. A special mention must be made of the episode "No Dogs Allowed", particularly the last two-thirds of it. Watch the episode for yourself, but the general message is that there can be room in your heart for both ponies and puppies. There are a few to movies in "When Niblet Met Giblet", not the least of which is the title (When Harry Met Sally...). There are also scenes similar to the spaghetti scene in Lady and the Tramp and the ending of Casablanca. A lot of shout outs to 101 Dalmatians: The Series were made in this show. The most notable episode being "The Quintuplets". Also, in the episode, "Taboo", the title pup is voiced by Pamela Segall Aldon, who happened to voice Lucky in the first 33 episodes of 101 Dalmatians: The Series, and at the end of the episode, the man who adopts him names him "Lucky"! (Had to be more than a coincidence.) The character of Dr. Sculder (from "The Truth is in Hear") is a double header: He physically resembles Doc Brown from the Back to the Future series, and his name is a portmanteau of Agents Mulder and Scully from The X-Files. The episode "Once a Ralph, Always a Ralph" features a dog named Chancey attempting to be adopted by the Gardner family. Pretty subtle nod to a movie most ten-year-olds probably haven't heard of. "Lucky the Dunce" features a surprisingly niche one to Monty Python and the Holy Grail, when Cookie asks Squirt and Strudel what it is that Niblet likes. | |

Series Continuity Error | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_ca95473c | comment |
Series Continuity Error: In "The Call of the Squirrel Dog", Cookie had her bow in the flashback, which she didn't get until Episode 3 ("The General"). In "Squawk", the plot revolves around the Mayor getting a parrot to cozy up to the pet owners of the city, and later reveals that he doesn't like "dumb animals" or pets. In "Nightmare on Pound Street", not only does the Mayor adopt a puppy named Freddy for his kids, he mentioned he once had a similarly hideous yet adorable dog himself when he was a child. That might not be so bad, except for the producers' love for continuity nods (see above) and that one of McLeish's signature qualities is sidling up to bigwigs.note It isn't even as if they've forgotten Freddy existed; Rebound retrieves him during the Christmas Episode from the Mayor's mansion. (Would McLeish ever forget a favor he's done for the Mayor?) | |

Pounds Are Animal Prisons | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_cca03e64 | comment |
Pounds Are Animal Prisons: Captured worrywart Buddy initially thinks Shelter 17 is one in "Rebel Without A Collar". Strudel helps to convince him otherwise. The Canine Capture and Removal Center in "I Never Barked For My Father" very much is. Dog catcher Ketchum of the Canine Capture and Removal Team looks like a stereotypical Hollywood sheriff. When Milton Feltwaddle returns to take over Shelter 17 in "McLeish Unleashed" when McLeish is promoted, he does turn the pound into a prison. | |

"Metaphor" Is My Middle Name: In "Zoltron", Captain Randy claims that Believing is his middle name when Olaf expressed doubt that he'd believe he saw an alien. "The Pups Who Loved Me" has Bondo and Patches both claim that Danger is their middle name. On both occasions, Cupcake doesn't get that they're speaking metaphorically and aren't really saying that their middle names are Danger. | |

Vitriolic Best Buds: Squirt and Niblet. Squirt has no compunctions about leveling insults toward Niblet in regards to his intelligence, weight and hygiene. Most of the time, Niblet will either take the jabs or be oblivious to them. Yet as seen in "Homeward Pound" and noted by the featured puppy in "Olaf In Love", they're best friends. (Interestingly, in the latter case, when Squirt started fighting with Niblet, he fought back immediately.) | |

Daddy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You: As Lucky's father Slick explained in "I Never Barked For My Father", Lucky had to stop thinking about it as a puppy and think about it from his father's perspective, or for you as the viewer, as Slick's role as a pet. (Slick was actually the dog of Lucky's mother's neighbors, not of his mother's humans as Lucky thought. When the neighbors moved across town, they naturally took Slick with them.) | |

Expy | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Lucky in a way resembles Charlie B. Barkin. He even has a red collar that is similar to the one that Charlie wears in the sequel. Character-wise however, it's subverted. Lucky would never be as selfish as Charlie. Although both do demonstrate a calm, cool, and collected personality. Not to mention that Lucky isn't completely free from having Charlie-like moments (such as "Snow Problem" when he becomes so obsessed with winning the sled dog race that he's initially willing to let a rival team-headed by Tundra's perfect person-get lost and possibly killed going the wrong way). Dolores's editor-in-chief dad in "Working K-9 to 5" greatly resembles J. Jonah Jameson, even sharing his speech pattern. They even share the same voice actor J. K. Simmons. Lucky's father Slick strongly resembles Tramp in his physical appearance and his suave character. | |

Conspicuous Trenchcoat | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_ecedfef7 | comment |
Conspicuous Trenchcoat: Lucky, Cookie and Niblet usually disguise themselves as humans using this to blend in by standing upright and each wearing their own individual disguise. Cookie usually wears a dress rather than a coat. Also, Niblet usually wears a fedora on his head while Lucky and Cookie wear wigs. Fans often mistake this for a Totem Pole Trench, even though the dogs are not propping each other up on shoulders. | |

| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_ee7a60e9 | comment |
One-Steve Limit: Broken in "Taboo". After declaring newly adopted Taboo the best thing that's happened to him in a long time, Mr. Geekman gave Taboo the new name of... Lucky. (After team leader Lucky's dismissal of the idea his name having any bearing on his ability to find puppies homes earlier in the episode, this coincidence was not lost on the rest of the team.) | |

I Remember It Like It Was Yesterday | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_f04260d7 | comment |
I Remember It Like It Was Yesterday: In his eponymous episode, Taboo begins his story of becoming an unlucky dog with his birth. During their attempts at housebreaking Puddles, Strudel and Niblet say the trope verbatim as they reminisce about their own housebreaking experiences. Except in Niblet's case, he really did just become housebroken yesterday. And still needs to work on it. Once Giblet is taken to the sheep farm in "When Niblet Met Giblet", she reminisces about the flower Niblet gave her like it was yesterday. If you pay attention to the elapsed time during the episode, you see it was the day before. | |

Easily Forgiven | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_f36c4f98 | comment |
Easily Forgiven: Walter in "The Fraud Princess". He planned on robbing Agatha, using his dog as an accomplice. Rebound and the gang manage to get Agatha back home in time to see Walter (in a typical black outfit and mask) playing with Princess. Walter tells his story about him losing his money in the market, gives him a pair of diamond earrings to help him get back on his feet, and offers to makes him tea. True story or not, that's quite generous. | |

Broken Masquerade | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_f506d08c | comment |
Broken Masquerade: In "Lucky Gets Adopted", Lucky resorts to talking to explain to his new human Dot why he (in part) ran away the first time, after she leashes him to her dresser to keep him from leaving again. Unlike Holly from the original version, Dot doesn't know all dogs can talk, just Mr. Chewy McFluffster... um, Lucky. As of "The Pupple's Court", Dot now knows all dogs can talk. | |

Never Say "Die" | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_f51c5f3c | comment |
Never Say "Die": Perhaps pushed ever so much closer to being discredited. In "Homeward Pound", Squirt was struggling to keep from hitting the bottom of a waterfall. On the other hand, when Toyoshiko decided to delete her own memory in her eponymous episode, Strudel says that Toyo "erased herself". Of course, as Toyo was a robot dog, it was an appropriate description. | |

Santa's Existence Clause | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_f7d724e6 | comment |
Santa's Existence Clause: A variant occurs in "I Heard the Barks on Christmas Eve" where Rebound believes in Kris Jingles, the canine equivalent of Santa Claus, despite Patches and Cupcake telling her she's silly for doing so. True to the trope, he's proven to exist when he appears before the pups. | |

Real After All | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_fb724048 | comment |
Real After All: A common twist whenever a supernatural/out of the ordinary element is involved has the supernatural element turning out to be real, such as Zoltron and his family turning out to be aliens and Kris Jingles existing despite Patches and Cupcake's disbelief. | |

Comically Missing the Point | |
| Pound Puppies (2010) / int_fbd285b7 | comment |
Comically Missing the Point: "Rebound": McLeish resolves to tell his mother that he's actually a CIA agent working undercover, "If I told you more, Mother, I'd have to make you disappear." Olaf, whom he was testing this out on, asks, "Disappear? So are you a spy or a magician?" Annoyed, McLeish storms out, leaving Olaf to mumble, "Being a magician's nothing to be ashamed of." Later, once his ruse falls flat, so to speak, McLeish's mother threatens to cut him out of her will, remove him from the family scrapbook, and disinvite him from Thanksgiving. McLeish's comment: "But the turkey!" "Barlow": After Barlow's song causes Niblet to take his advice to laze in the sunshine and take a big ol' snooze, Lucky, Cookie, and Strudel hear Niblet sing Barlow's song in his sleep. Lucky and Cookie comment on the direness of the situation, Strudel on the other hand... | |

Ridiculously Cute Critter: The squirrels and just about every puppy fall under this category. Although this is deconstructed with Buttercup who greatly resents her cutesy appearance (especially in how she resembles a popular dog doll) because it doesn't let people see the real her. | |
