Charlie Dog

Charlie Dog is a character from the Looney Tunes franchise who made his debut on Little Orphan Airedale in 1947 which also starred Porky Pig, he is voiced by Mel Blanc.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) His goal is to manipulate people (particularly Porky) into adopting him since he thinks that everyone should have a dog, even if they don’t want a dog.
 * 2) He is way too overly talkative that you just want him to shut up.
 * 3) He tries way too hard to act cute and adorable just so he can get adopted.
 * 4) He keeps driving Porky into insanity due to his obnoxious behavior and antics towards him.
 * 5) He dumps Porky in the middle of the desert which makes him lose his sanity, act like a dog and get sent to the pound on Often an Orphan.
 * 6) He lies to those who don’t want him by acting dramatic and even trying to commit suicide just so he can earn sympathy.
 * 7) He refuses to accept the fact that not everyone wants a dog.
 * 8) Along with Shep, he's one of the few dogs in the Looney Tunes franchise to be portrayed negatively.

Good Qualities

 * 1) He is one of the very first Looney Tunes characters created by Chuck Jones which were strictly intended to be funny rather than cute, alongside Henery Hawk, Hubie and Bertie and The Three Bears.
 * 2) Chuck Jones thankfully stopped having Porky pitted against him after Often an Orphan.
 * 3) He can be hilarious at times.
 * 4) He does receive comeuppance on The Awful Orphan, Dog Gone South, and A Hound for Trouble.
 * 5) The sad eyes he makes are adorable.
 * 6) He isn't as bad as Shep and the dog from Chow Hound.

Trivia

 * In three Chuck Jones cartoons in the early-1950s, there appears to be another character similar in appearance to Charlie Dog called Frisky Puppy, who is paired alongside Claude Cat in "Two's a Crowd" (1950), "Terrier Stricken" (1952), and "No Barking" (1954). Though Frisky Puppy looks a lot like Charlie Dog, they are not the same character; unlike Charlie Dog, Frisky Puppy doesn't talk, and is often depicted as an playful, innocent puppy whose barking often unintentionally drives Claude Cat crazy.
 * After Chuck Jones retired the Charlie Dog character in 1951 after "A Hound for Trouble", a similar-looking dog character to Charlie would appear in the Bugs Bunny cartoon "Lumber-Jack Rabbit" (1953) (the only Looney Tunes cartoon in the "classic" era produced in 3-D) as Paul Bunyan's dog Smidgen. Five years later, Robert McKimson would use Charlie Dog one last time for a brief cameo in the Looney Tunes one-shot cartoon "Dog Tales" (1958), via reused animation from "Often an Orphan" (1949).
