What happens

Poochini (also known as Poochini's Yard) is an animated television series which was originally aired worldwide on February 2, 2000, but it did not air in the United States until September 7, 2002. The series follows the life of a grey black-eared hound mix named Poochini who runs away from home after his rich owner dies, gets captured by the dog pound and is adopted by an average American family. Despite being created and co-produced by the San Francisco-based entertainment company Wild Brain, Poochini was not shown in the United States for over two years after its production. Co-produced and internationally distributed by Munich-based media group EM.TV and distributed by The Television Syndication Company for US syndication, Poochini is based on the award-winning pilot short A Dog Cartoon (1999). Poochini only made 26 episodes with the final one airing in the United States on March 1, 2003. It was directed by Dave Marshall and Dave Thomas. The series was one of the final projects of famed background artist Maurice Noble (who mostly worked with Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry animator Chuck Jones), who is credited as a design and color consultant, before his death in 2001.
