History YMMV / PoundPuppies2010

* HilariousInHindsight: The weird little girl in "There's Something About Camelia" has a passing resemblance to [[WesternAnimation/GravityFalls Mabel Pines]].

* AlternateAesopInterpretation: Was "''The General''" about being in touch with your feminine side, or about being appreciated for your own talents?

%%** Fang from the episode "Rebel Without A Collar" (ZCE. Why?)
** Zipper from "Zipper The Zoomit Dog". Her voice is easily recognized by Creator/TaraStrong who also voiced [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Twilight Sparkle]].

** Ace is this when his reason on why his [[FantasticRacism attitude against dogs was revealed]]. [[spoiler: He used to be best friends with a puppy until the same puppy left to be with his perfect person, leaving Ace lonely and heartbroken]].

** Taboo from the episode of the [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin same name]] which has him suffering low-self esteem after strings of "bad-luck" happening around him [[spoiler: by the same cats whom "cursed" him VIA act of sabotage for tuna]].

** Niblet and Giblet [[spoiler: in the near end of "When Niblet Met Giblet", when they're forced to break up.]]
** Spoons from "Hello Kitten". She's prevented by Ace from living with her best dog friend and the two owners the
kennel kittens put her with are crazy.

* CriticalResearchFailure: The "Kennel Kittens". Apparently the writer of this version had never heard of the "Pound Purries". Although it could also be just as likely that they wanted to avoid creating a complete {{Snowclone}} of their canine counterparts.

* UncannyValley: Some characters (''especially'' the humans and a few animals) look weird due to a strange mix of "cutesy" and "cartoonish", though more so in the first 7 episodes by ''9 Story Entertainment''. The ''DHX Media'' episodes look much better.

%%** Pepper from "The K9 Kid" and "It's Elementary, My Dear Pup Club" (ZCE. Why?)

** Cookie [[spoiler: during the second half of "Mutternal Instincts". Sure, she deliberately prevented Cupcake from getting a home, but it was only because they shared a strong bond with each other.]]

%%** Niblet and Giblet [[spoiler: in the near end of "When Niblet Met Giblet".]] (ZCE. How are they Woobies?)
%%** Spoons from "Hello Kitten". (ZCE. How are they a Woobie?)

!!The 2010 series contains examples of:

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Lucky. Viewers seem to be pretty divided on him.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: A few examples, given the wide range of characters involved
** Fang from the episode "Rebel Without A Collar"

** Pepper from "The K9 Kid" and "It's Elementary, My Dear Pup Club"
** Barlow from um..."[[ShapedLikeItself Barlow]]"
** Giblet from "When Niblet Met Giblet"
** Dot from "Lucky is Adopted"

* MemeticMutation: SECRET BUTT FUN!
* NightmareFuel: There's the cult-like family of cats owned by a [[CrazyCatLady Crazy Cat Man]] named Bernie in "Hello Kitten". The lead cat speaks in an unhinged tone about how they never leave the house and are so comfortable with their lives as she and the others gang up on the adoptee kitten Spoons. Other cats in this family are shown with crazy eyes and performing typical cat activities in an almost robotic manner. Their mannerisms, as well as the rundown house they live in, [[FridgeHorror make you wonder just what he does to them]].

* {{Squick}}: The first part of ''Pound Preemies'' features all the [[SarcasmMode wonderfulness]] of puppy birth. It's not as bad as most examples, and it isn't shown on screen (it ''is'' a kids show, after all), but it can be slightly uncomfortable to more squeamish viewers.
%%* UglyCute: Ralph
* UncannyValley: Some characters (''especially'' the humans and a few animals) look weird due to a strange mix of "cutesy" and "cartoonish", though moreso in the first seven episodes by 9 Story Entertainment. The DHX Media episodes look much better.
* ViewerGenderConfusion: Patches. He sounds like a girl (obviously because he is voiced by [=Jessica Di Cicco=]), yet he is often referred to as male.
** [[TertiarySexualCharacteristics Patches doesn't have eyelashes.]]
* WatchItForTheMeme: Some of the first few fans only saw it for [[AccidentalInnuendo "Secret butt fun".]]

** Yipper from the episode The Yipper Caper. He spends most of the episode with low self esteem, whimpering because he thinks nobody wants him. Of course, he gets a happy ending but just watching in the the beginning and middle parts of the episode is enough to want to cuddle him.
** Boots from "It's Elementary My Dear Pup Club"
** Taboo from the episode of the [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin same name]] which has him suffering low-self esteem after strings of "bad-luck" happening around him [[spoiler: by the same cats whom "cursed" him VIA act of sabotage for tuna]].
** Niblet and Giblet [[spoiler: in the near end of "When Niblet Met Giblet".]]
** Spoons from "Hello Kitten".

** Zipper from "Zipper The Zoomit Dog". Her voice is easily recognized by Creator/TaraStrong who also voiced [[MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Twilight Sparkle]].

* MemeticMolester: Poor Niblet, thanks to his [[MemeticMutation infamous]] "[[{{Mondegreen}} Secret butt fun]]" line.
