I believe it's an old Fisher Price toy..
It was a plastic dog. I think he was orange. Basically you had a head piece and a bum piece, and then there were assorted plastic rings? Or Triangles? I can't remember exactly. And you could snap them together to make the doggie-with the head on one end and the tail on the other.
Does anyone know what I am talking about and where I could find one??
Re: Does anyone remember this childhood toy?
This?
No, but that is the same idea.
This one was plastic. The dog had an orange head, and a yellow tail.
I googled "classic kids toys, sausage dog" and something in images came up that looks right by the description. Available at naturemoms.com
