I never saw Lucky Pup, but I do remember a hand puppet show of that era called "Time for Beanie" featuring Cecil the seasick sea serpent. It returned as a cartoon 10 or 15 years later.

How about memories of another TV production of the period, one done with hand puppets (vs. marionettes) called Lucky Pup? Its main characters were Foudini and Pinhead and they appeared, perhaps, on the DuMont Television Network.

Well I do, and he was a puppet on The Howdy Doody Program back in the 1950s. The Flub was an animal made up of various other creatures, sort of like them things they got down in Australia. Anyway, Well, It occurred to me that with Mr. Stuart having the boots of Grandpa Jones and the head of Elvis Presley and the flashy clothes of a Porter Wagoner ....that he was a regular human Flubadub.... I hope that this information causes your insides to settle, for while The Flubadub was strange , he was a good soul, as I should imagine Mr. Stuart to be as well."
