Coconut (dog)

Coconut is a white Westie dog marketed as part of the Just Like You line of items. She has become something of a mascot for the line (along with Licorice from 2003 to 2008).

2000
Coconut was released in 2000 and marketed as a boy. He came with a wicker dog bed with a blue polkadot cushion lining, pretend dog biscuits and a rawhide chew toy for $16.

2001-2004
The next year in 2001, Coconut was marketed as a girl, and sold with a removable collar and leash only. She had been modified to have a magnet near the location of her mouth so that items could be "held" by her. The price of $16 remained the same. This was also the first year dress up sets were released for Coconut.

Licorice was released in 2003 and could share Coconut's clothing and accessories.

2004-2008
Cocnut was given another rerelease in 2004. This bundle included a new collar and leash, magnetic tennis ball toy, and a certificate. cost went up to $19.

From at least 2004 until 2008, it was possible to purchase a bundle that included a Just Like You doll and Coconut as an add-on. This was discontinued with the release of the Star Hoodie Outfit.

2009-Present
In 2009, Coconut was rereleased with a new collar, no leash, and no magnet to hold items. She also was paired up with new pets after Licorice was retired: Ginger, Sugar, and Honey. All four pets come with a collar and pet journal. Coconut's new collar is hot pink and orange, and the cost is now $22.

Trivia

 * As of 2009, Coconut and her friends have no gender specification so that the owner can decide on the gender of their pet. However, it can be assumed that the pets are females because Sugar, Coconut, and Honey have pink accents such as a collar or bow. Ginger has a purple collar.
