This is Hotdog from the Archie line of comics. He belongs to Jughead. Odie was first introduced to the strip in He was originally called Spot, but cartoonist Jim Davis later changed his name to Odie. This one is easy. He has a very interesting history. You should check out the Wikipedia entry on him and see how he evolved as a character.

His family has always owned dogs, but Bodhi is the first he's been fully responsible for since puppyhood… and he couldn't be more doting. Sean also exercised his creativity and business sense as an award-winning journalist, producer, TV marketing exec, and private investigator.
When not blogging, working, or playing with Bodhi, he is an avid adventure traveler who has circumnavigated the world, bird-watched on all seven continents, safari-ed in Africa, and SCUBA-dived in exotic waters. Thanks for the brain exercise. Very interesting question. Loved your Bio Sean! Not only do you look like George Clooney, but your life sounds just as interesting as his. Yeah… I am pretty sure Goofy is a dog.
Goofy is a dog? So why would the writers at Disney have Goofy and Clarabelle coupled up? Clarabelle was the sometimes girlfriend of Horace Horsecollar, who was a horse and not a cow, and the Disney universe includes multiple examples of inter-species couples: Ben Ali Gator, for instance, woos Hyacinth Hippo in Fantasia ; Jessica Rabbit a cartoon human has a rabbit husband in Who Framed Roger Rabbit , and Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog have an ongoing if one-sided relationship in the Muppet canon.
Outside the Disney universe, Bimbo, a cartoon dog, was the occasional love interest of Betty Boop a human female , and of course, Tillie Tiger once planted a kiss on Elmer Elephant:. The Reel Rundown article was clearly a jape. The use of the eyes, mouth and ears are entirely different.
One is dog, the other human. His eyes should remain partly closed to help give him a stupid, sloppy appearance, as though he were constantly straining to remain awake, but of course they can open wide for expressions or accents.
Someone posted this article on Facebook and brought me here, just to quell the heated comments the author wrote in the comments 5 years ago that this was a satirical piece of FICTION for an experiment. Don't take this article seriously. This page is one of the first to come up when googling "is goofy a dog". Which is pretty scary really as people i know try to use this to claim goofy is a cow.
Which is utterly ridiculous. If anything goofy would be a bull and as such would have horns like a bull. He also wouldn't have dog whiskers, long droopy dog ears, or a dog nose. So conspiracy this is not. Ambiguity there is not. Stop spreading mis-truths. Goofy is a dog. Y'all can't tell me nothin' about goofy. How does he have a dogs nose if he's a cow?!
Passionate about disney over here and I'm not afraid to take somebody down for talking some bs about goofy being a cow. Mickey and Mini, Donald and Daisy both follow this pattern.
So why would the writers at Disney have Goofy and Clarabelle coupled up? A cat and a rabbit. Goofys original name was dippy dawg.
Which makes him a "dawg" lol and he doesn't have flaring nostrils he has a small nose that looks wet. Just like a dog. Dogs and cows have always had a close relationship. Goofy is an anthropomorphic dog. Pluto is a regular dog. Animators are creative and play with perspective. This is not complicated.
This is stupid. He has buck teeth and a big nose, because it's funny. He's paired with Clarabelle occaisonaly because of the ambiguousness of his species. Although Clarabelle is more often paired with Horace Horsecollar. He was drawn, not discovered. He is whatever Disney wants him to be, and they want him to be a dog. Hi I I want to thank you for Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and I really really love me and I hope you are right I can meet her one day and can you send her a picture something to me so I can so I can meat her.
I'm pretty sure Goofy is a goat. Pretty much every other character has a first name letter that matches the first letter in its animal type.
Great job on this research. Now i have so much to tell my 2 year old daughter who just happens to be over the moon for goofy. Im sure she will love him no matter what. Wow…this was absolutely hilarious!! I always knew there was something fishy about Goofy's character.
You just confirmed it. AWEsome job! I have always wondered exactly what animal Goofy was I really liked this hub, even if it mostly fictional, it was a fun read! Anne, Thanks for reading. The article is intended as satire.
