Rub A Dub Doggie
Rub A Dub Doggies are one of my most fondly remembered toys of the 80s. This was a waterproof plastic dog with terry cloth ears and a little horizontal lever at the back of the collar. The lever could be switched right and left quickly making the dogs (usually sudsy) ears splash all over the place like a real dog.
Kids might not like them today because: Their value as a toy came mostly from Mr Bubble bubble baths, which are mostly a forgotten past time.
Kids today might like it because: The universal appeal of dogs is still in tact and a young child might enjoy this cute plastic pup. Especially if it's flapping soap bubbles all over the bathroom.
