I don't have much to add but I have the one in the middle on the bottom row as this pic, different color combo though. I got it in a small lot with some of the Pony Lov figures so I thought it was just part of the same line?

That's one of the pony toys by Tara we think *may* be related.

I remember seeing these EVERYWHERE in the mid to late 90s. Something in my mind was telling me it was related to the Pony Luv series, because I remember wanting a My Little Pony at that time, and I had a vague recollection of the name being very similar.

So I looked up "Taratoy Puppy Luv" and lo and behold, there's a name match on Trademarkia for Sep. 25, 1997.

(I only remember this because I always liked the "Luv them, They Luv You" slogan on the boxes of all the Luv merchandise, which included some mermaid dolls I had)

Hmm. Interesting. But that whole spelling "love" as "luv" seems more in the mid to late 90s. I know that I had these toys when I was really small... circa 1992ish.

Hm, they do look rather early 90s, clothing-wise. Perhaps an earlier version of what became "Puppy Luv"?
