Rescue Pets

Rescue Pets are a plush toy series manufactured and marketed by MGA Entertainment. They are mainly dogs, but can be other animals such as a cat or penguin. The series was released in 2006 with the first Rescue Pets and Rescue Pets Puppies. Their expressions often make them look sad or pitiful to enhance their cuteness.

Many of the television spots are produced by Image Line Media.

Some Rescue Pets, known as "MyePets", include a secret code that can be entered online, enabling those who buy the toys to play games and take care of their pets online at the MyePets site . You can visit several locations including the Spa, the Flea Market, the Vet, the Diner, the Arcade, the pet show, the park and the user's house. MyePets are very similar to Webkinz in many ways. There also is an amusement park in construction. It is said to reopen in September 2010.

There is also a Rescue Pets "Swim To Me" puppy. It is made out of plastic, and comes complete with goggles and towel. It swims in water, and walks on land. It has received mixed reviews.

Famous quotes containing the words rescue and/or pets:

    Hygiene is the corruption of medicine by morality. It is impossible to find a hygienest who does not debase his theory of the healthful with a theory of the virtuous.... The true aim of medicine is not to make men virtuous; it is to safeguard and rescue them from the consequences of their vices.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    How wonderful to meet such a natural little girl. She knows what she wants and she asks for it. Not like these over-civilized little pets that have to go through analysis before they can choose an ice cream soda.
    John Lee Mahin (1902–1984)
