Toons with Talking Dogs

Goofy pretty much claimed to be a dog near the end of "Who Framed Roger Rabbit"...though I grew up reading Disney comics that said he was a "Goof" as a species. But they never made a big deal of it.

Super-Goof goobers would be awesome right now!
 
Hong Kong Phooey got a circa 25 USD complete series release on DVD last year.

Despite being voiced by Scatman Crothers, he is neither torn in half nor axed in the head during the series.

Precious Pupp (owned by Granny Go-Go) used to semi-talk as well.

On American Dragon:Jake Long, his one mentor takes the form of a talking dog.

Not a toon, but kiddy-oriented Power Rangers had Commander Anubis 'Doggy' Crueger of Sirius.

Dino once talked (Though whether the Snorkasaurus was THE Dino is another story), and still later on, he mouthed and throated some words, usually in panic.

'The Puppy's New Adventures' had all-talking dogs, but only to each other.

Hot Dog spoke mentally on 'Archie' cartoons.
 
Did any TV or movie version of Snoopy ever speak? It's funny, his comic strip version is one of the most verbose there, but I can't remember him ever ACTUALLY speaking or THINKING in words on any Peanuts special or movie I saw growing up.

Well, he doesn't speak in the strip. He thinks. (Like Garfield doesn't speak, he thinks.)

I can't recall Snoopy ever speaking in the Peanuts cartoons. He'd sometimes make "noises" that could maybe be construed as an attempt at some-sort-of verbal communication but never any words.

I do recall him DRIVING a car once. :wtf:
 
Well, Garfield spoke on TV (RIP Lorenzo Music) and in the movies (Bill Murray).

Weirdly enough, for a few years, Lorenzo Music VOICED Bill Murray's character Peter Venkman on "The Real Ghostbusters" cartoon. (I think it was Dave Coulier in other years...but a weird sense of symmetry there between Venkman and Garf.)

That Murray would voice the cat in the movies? It just seemed surreal...and somehow rather right. :)

:)
 
Especially since, reportedly, it was an offhand comment by Murray that may have gotten Music replaced on TRGB. Apparently, he thought it was odd that Maurice LeMarche did such a brilliant replay of Harold Ramis's Egon, while 'his' voice actor sounded so little like him.
 
I remember the idiotic movement to FIGHT the "Pound Puppies" because (they said) the name encouraged people to beat on young dogs! :rolleyes:
