Tuffy the Terrier

Tuffy ran from May 1997 to the end of 1998 and was a regular on the stadium giveaway circuit, including 10,000 at a San Francisco Giants game and 5,000 at a New Jersey Devils game, both in the autumn of 1998.

For identification, the tush tag is where the variation lives. Documented Tuffys wear tags belonging to Baldy, Doodle, Dotty, Garcia, Gobbles and Hippity, so a name that does not match the toy is a known production quirk rather than a red flag.
