Does anybody remember this extremely weird character (I have no idea what he/she was from. Whether it be a commercial, PSA, cartoon, music video, kid show, etc.). I'm not even sure it was for kids or not. Maybe it was one of those obscure adult cartoons or something like that. Anyway, it was a horse-like creature that had the skin and texture of the Pillsbury Dough Boy and it didn't have a mouth. It's head moved like that of a horse and for some reason, the head would also turn and react to things like a dog or a cat would. I have no idea why this seems so familiar to me but if anyone knows about something even slightly similar to what I just described, please answer this question. Was that a legit character that actually existed or am I just going crazy?

Are you talking about Pokey, Gumby's horse? I think I figured it out although it's completely different from the way I remember it. It wasn't a horse, it was more of a dragon-like creature and it was from the video game Dig Dug. Although those crappy Atari graphics may have caused me to think it was a green horse which makes a bit of sense. Every time I see the Robot Chicken sketch below, I would always think of that "horse" from some reason to the point where it started to get on my nerves. But apparently, it was the green thing from Dig Dug:

Oh, I love Robot Chicken. The obscurity of their references has helped me get out of many "What was that obscure show/character/movie from my childhood?" crises over the years.
