This morning I looked down at my husbands feet and they were dry. I started singing the jingle "dusty, dusty, dusty....feet" He started laughing. Then I thought where did I get that jingle from. I remembered 'Dusty, Dusty, Dusty riding on Nugget, Nugget, Nugget". I could not think of the rest. My partner is ten years younger and never heard of the commercial. When I sang the commercial jingle for Dusty and Nugget he could not stop laughing. He did not believe that Dusty and Nugget existed. I am now 43 and could hardly remember the toy. So we looked it up and here it is. I was so excited to have a picture to show him. I never got this toy but if it was a cowgirl I know I would have wanted it....and probably the reason I remembered the jingle. It is amazing that you can have any vague thought these days and have it confirmed with the use of the internet.

I have the orignal, before she was harder plastic. Nugget could not stand on her own, she had to balance upon a fence and is made of a durable foam...There is texture to the touch.. I wanted the horse soooo bad, it was the only thing I wanted. My Mom says you could not find it in the toy stores and some family friend contacted Kenner direct some how... Still have Nugget, saddle, biddle and fence (missing the pivot point, Nugget rested on) she is very delicate and played with alot... But I did get the toy I wanted for christmas...

I had two Dustys and a Nugget. My Nugget had soft legs and couldn't stand, I was so disappointed because I was dying to receive this horse. My mom was furious and wrote to the company about it. One Dusty had normal colored skin, but the other one had really orange skin. I still sing the song to myself on occasion

I also have the original fuzzy wobbly legged Nugget. And she's in mint condition! I had almost forgotten her, but found her in a box with my other toy horses over this past weekend. Glad to see others remember her, too!

When I was a little girl, my parents bought me the Dusty Tennis version of the doll. I LOVED it...mainly because she shared my name!! Not many of us female "Dustys" out there!! I wish I still had her!

I had this going through my head the other day. The 70's had very "hooky" jingles. Are you ready for your mystery date?

Wow, I can't believe that I found this...I never had a Dusty or Nugget BUT I do remember the jingle and I have to say it runs thru my head every now and then! This is too funny. Denise, you are so right about how vague thoughts can be confirmed by the internet. I wish I could just find the actual commercial just to hear that jingle once again. I'm so glad that I am not the only one who remembers this!

I was just singing this jingle to my daughter of 8 years dusty dusty dusty riding nugget nugget nugget and she was laughing at the names. I told her we could look it up tomorrow. I had to run down now and find it sure enough you have this info. I do remember the legs on Nugget being such a disapointment.In all of that jingle I am so happy to have looked this up and remember my mom bought me a hot toy at the time. Christmas has passed and I get now know what she went through just to find the special toy. Thanks again everyone for more memories. What a jingle can do to us.
