These little darlings were made by H. Fishlove and Company of Chicago. They were made with little Alnico magnets in the 1930's. There were many other figures made with these little magnets including Tricky Dogs, two little Scottie dogs. The magnets would repel or attract each other. If you held one figure so it repelled the other, they would appear to "dance" around.
