# Poochini

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).

The series was aired on syndication, The WB 100+ Station Group in the United States, Teletoon in Canada, Nickelodeon in Latin America, ITV1 (CITV) in the United Kingdom, TG4 (Cúla4) in Ireland, Télétoon+ (formerly Télétoon) and TF1 (TF!
