It should be Furry bait, but I'm not sure that a lot of members know about Fluppy Dogs. Furries tend to follow fashion, and make hits out of Ylvis' What Does The Fox Say or Rocket Raccoon, but don't always mine for less popular stuff.
I like these guys, I think they're cute, and have two plush Fluppy Dogs myself.
I've always said this just HAD to have inspired Kingdom Hearts, but Nomura probably doesn't even know about it. I had every Fluppy dog but my favorite was Ozzy the one that Lorenzo Music voiced. You know since he's the cool one with a pot on his head.
I remember having to endure this because my little sister wanted to watch it and it was either watch this or do something other than watch TV.
I was in my teens and for whatever reason didn't want to get off the couch and all I can remember is thinking to myself, "Boy, this is a new low for me."
