Playskool WATER PETS RED DOG BLUE SWIMSUIT DUCK on Tummy

I’m looking for a Playskool water pet No. 412. It’s a red and yellow dog with a duck on it’s blue swimsuit.

My grandmother gave me the same exact one when I was about 2 years old. Since it was a water pet, I took him everywhere – the bath, the park, the car, and I couldn’t sleep without him.

My grandmother passed away when I was 8 years old, and seeing as though she was the one who have him to me, I never let him go. Until one day when my older sister was cleaning our room, separating garbage into one bag, and all off our stuffed animals into another. Unfortunately, the bag of stuffed animals was accidentally thrown away, and by the time it was noticed, it was too late. I was so devastated!! He was not only a simple stuffed animal. He was my best friend.

I feel like a piece of my childhood had been missing after all these years. I am now 20 years old, and still to this day, it brings tears to my eyes to tell this story.

Can you please help me find one?!?! It would mean a lot to me.

Thanks,

Adrienna

My older sister and I both have these, but hers was stolen by the neighbor kids when we were young. She’s been through a lot lately (emotional issues) and her birthday is coming up. I thought finding her one would be the perfect gift to turn her life back around. She named hers PuffPuff. I NEED PUFFPUFF!

Thanks, Susan. I sent the link yesterday when doing a search for the Water Pets cat. The email bounced, so there’s no way to contact Adrienna.

Thanks, M, for helping with the search. The ones that are marked Discontinued usually mean the email address I have on file is no longer any good, so there’s no way to contact them.

Thank you so much, Kristen! I’ve edited your comments to show only the Item Number, as that is easier to search for and actually “lasts” longer. I’ve sent them to the mailing list.
