PLUTO, also called PLUTO THE PUP,[1] is a cartoon dog created in 1930 at Walt Disney Productions. He is a yellow-orange color, medium-sized, short-haired dog with black ears. Unlike most Disney characters, Pluto is not anthropomorphic beyond some characteristics such as facial expression.[Note 1][2] He is Mickey Mouse's pet. Officially a mixed-breed dog,[3] he made his debut as a bloodhound in the Mickey Mouse cartoon _The Chain Gang_.[4] Together with Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, and Goofy, Pluto is one of the "Sensational Six"âthe biggest stars in the Disney universe.[5] Though all six are non-human animals, Pluto alone is not dressed as a human.[6]
Pluto debuted in animated cartoons and appeared in 24 _Mickey Mouse_ films before receiving his own series in 1937. All together Pluto appeared in 89 short films between 1930 and 1953. Several of these were nominated for an Academy Award, including _The Pointer_ (1939), _Squatter's Rights_ (1946), _Pluto's Blue Note_ (1947), and _Mickey and the Seal_ (1948). One of his films, _Lend a Paw_(1941), won the award in 1942.[7][Note 2] Because Pluto does not speak, his films generally rely on physical humor. This made Pluto a pioneering figure in character animation, by expressing personality through animation rather than dialogue.[8]
Like all of Pluto's co-stars, the dog has appeared extensively in comics over the years, first making an appearance in 1931.[9] He returned to theatrical animation in 1990 with _The Prince and the Pauper_ and has also appeared in several direct-to-video films. Pluto also appears in the television series _Mickey Mouse Works_ (1999â2000), _House of Mouse_ (2001â2003), _Mickey Mouse Clubhouse_ (2006â2016), and the new Mickey Mouse shorts (2013âpresent).
In 1998, Disney's copyright on Pluto, set to expire in several years, was extended by the passage of the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act. Disney, along with other studios, lobbied for passage of the act to preserve their copyrights on characters such as Pluto for 20 additional years.[10]

Origin[Edit]
Pluto first appeared as a nameless bloodhound tracking the escaped convict Mickey in the film _The Chain Gang_ (September 1930).[11] A month and a half later, Pluto appeared as Minnie Mouse's dog named Rover who comes along with her and Mickey on a picnic. By his third appearance, in _The Moose Hunt_ (1931), Pluto is Mickey's pet, now named "Pluto".[3]
Several months had passed between the naming of what was believed to be the ninth planet, Pluto, on March 24, 1930, and the attachment of that name to the dog character. Venetia Burney (later Venetia Phair), who as an eleven-year-old British schoolgirl had suggested the name Pluto for the planet, remarked in 2006: "The name had nothing to do with the Disney cartoon. Mickey Mouse's dog was named after the planet, not the other way around."[12] Although it has been claimed that Disney named the dog after the planet, rather than after the mythical god of the underworld, this has not been verified. Disney animator Ben Sharpsteen said "We thought the name [Rover] was too common, so we had to look for something else. ... We changed it to Pluto the Pup ... but I don't honestly remember why."[13] Disney says they have no documents to support or refute the connection.[14][_not in citation given_] Unofficially, even Disney's animators believed that Walt Disney chose the name to capitalize on the sensation of the newly named planet.[15]
Pluto was initially a minor character until 1934 when Disney animator Norm Ferguson gave the dog a key role in the cartoon _Playful Pluto_. Pluto becomes entangled with a sticky piece of flypaper, and Ferguson expanded the sequence significantly. The segment became a classic, demonstrating how Disney artists can take a simple circumstance and build humor through a character.[16]
Characterization[Edit]
_
Playful Pluto_ (1934); Pluto struggles with a piece of flypaper
Unlike Mickey's other animal friends, such as Goofy (who is also a dog), Pluto is a normal animal. Pluto does not speak, walk upright, or wear clothing. A significant departure from this was his speaking role in _The Moose Hunt_ (1931), which was produced before Pluto's characterization had been clearly defined. As Pluto made more appearances, it became common that he would not speak, but only vocalize in barks and grunts. Other ways of communicating Pluto's thoughts occur through his facial expressions, and sometimes through the use of a shoulder angel/devil who speak directly to Pluto. (_Mickey's Elephant_, _Lend a Paw_).
Pluto is generally a cheerful and adventurous dog, although he can be given to sheer panic when confronted with something unknown. Common themes in Pluto's stories involve him becoming jealous of Mickey getting another pet (_Mickey's Elephant_, _Lend a Paw_, _Mickey and the Seal_), Pluto accidentally and unwittingly swallowing something and panicking when he realizes it (_Playful Pluto_, _Donald and Pluto_), Pluto getting entangled with something inanimate, or Pluto being pestered by a smaller animal (_Private Pluto_, _Squatter's Rights_). In many of his appearances with Mickey, Pluto will get himself into trouble and cause Mickey to get angry at him. Mickey, however, often cheers up quickly; often telling Pluto "I can't be mad at ya."
Pluto sometimes appears with other regular animal characters. His friends include Fifi the Peke, Dinah the Dachshund, and Ronnie the St. Bernard Puppy. Other animals he is less friendly with include Salty the Seal, Butch the Bulldog, Figaro the Kitten, Chip 'n Dale, Spike the Bee, Bent-Tail the Coyote, Milton the cat and other characters. In Disney's 1937 animated short _Pluto's Quin-Puplets_, Pluto has a son who is simply referred to as "Pluto Junior." In the 1946 animated short _Pluto's Kid Brother_, Pluto has a younger brother named K.B.
Appearances[Edit]
_
Bone Trouble_ (1940); Butch the Bulldog is a common antagonist of Pluto
Pluto first and most often appears in the _Mickey Mouse_ series of cartoons. On rare occasions, he is paired with Donald Duck ("Donald and Pluto", "Beach Picnic", "Window Cleaners", "The Eyes Have It", "Donald's Dog Laundry", & "Put Put Troubles").
The first cartoons to feature Pluto as a solo star were two Silly Symphonies, _Just Dogs_ (1932) and _Mother Pluto_ (1936). In 1937, Pluto appeared in _Pluto's Quin-Puplets_ which was the first installment of his own film series, then headlined _Pluto the Pup_. However, they were not produced on a regular basis until 1940, by which time the name of the series was shortened to _Pluto_.
His first comics appearance was in the _Mickey Mouse_ daily strips in 1931 two months after the release of _The Moose Hunt_. _Pluto Saves the Ship_, a comic book published in 1942, was one of the first Disney comics prepared for publication outside newspaper strips. However, not counting a few cereal giveaway mini-comics in 1947 and 1951, he did not have his own comics title until 1952.
In 1936 Pluto got an early title feature in a picture book under title "Mickey Mouse and Pluto the Pup" by Whitman Publishing.
Pluto runs his own neighborhood in Disney's Toontown Online. It's called the Brrrgh and it's always snowing there except during Halloween. During April Toons Week, a weekly event that is very silly, Pluto switches playgrounds with Minnie (all other characters do this as well). Pluto actually talks in Minnie's Melodyland.
Pluto has also appeared in the television series _Mickey Mouse Works_ (1999â2000), _Disney's House of Mouse_ (2001â2002), _Mickey Mouse Clubhouse_ (2006â2016), the new Mickey Mouse shorts ( 2013âpresent), and Mickey & the Roadster Racers (2017âpresent). Curiously enough, however, Pluto was the only standard Disney character not included when the whole gang was reunited for the 1983 featurette _Mickey's Christmas Carol_, although he did return in _The Prince and the Pauper_ (1990) and _Runaway Brain_ (1995). He also had a cameo in _Who Framed Roger Rabbit_ (1988). In 1996, he made a cameo in the _Quack Pack_episode "The Really Mighty Ducks".

Video Games[Edit]
Pluto appeared as a non-playable character in _Mickey Mania_ (1994).
In the _Kingdom Hearts_ video game series, Pluto is still Mickey's pet and acts as somewhat of a messenger, assisting in his master's plans. For most of _Kingdom Hearts II_, Pluto stays by Kairi's side (even when she has been kidnapped), as he has apparently taken a liking to her. Strangely, throughout the series, Pluto appears and disappears at random moments.
Disney Parks[Edit]
In the various Disney theme park resorts around the world, Pluto is a meetable character just like many of his film co-stars.[17] Pluto, however, uncharacteristically walks on two legs in this capacity out of necessity. Adults and children are able to meet, play with, and get autographs and pictures with Pluto and his friends at all Disney parks.
Confusion Concerning Pluto and Goofy[Edit]
This problem was humorously illustrated in the film _Stand By Me_ in which one of the boys ponders, "Mickey's a mouse, Donald's a duck, and Pluto's a dog. What's Goofy?" Also in the series _Funniest Pets & People_ a dog "mentions" why couldn't he have pants because Goofy was a dog and had pants. There is also an episode of the Disney Channel series _Even Stevens_ called "Scrub Day" wherein Louis' rallying-the-troops speech he wonders why Goofy got to walk and talk and Pluto has to eat from a dog bowl. This confusion is also mentioned in the French movie _La Cité de la peur_. In the Disney's Toontown Online event "April Toons Week," characters switch playgrounds and everything is silly. Pluto switches places with Minnie Mouse, and he speaks. A brief gag in an episode of _House of Mouse_ also acknowledges this. Hades asks Goofy, "Are you a man, are you a dog, are you a man-dog . . . what are you?". Goofy simply replies, "I'm just Goofy." The confusion between Goofy and Pluto is also mentioned in an episode of _Full House_ by Dave Coulier's character, Joey.Disney has dealt with a certain amount of confusion concerning the fact that Pluto (an ordinary dog) is treated as a household pet while the anthropomorphic Goofy is treated as a human despite being of the same species. On their web site, it stated that "Goofy was originally created as Dippy Dawg" and "was created as a human character, as opposed to Pluto who was a pet, so [Goofy] walked upright and had a speaking voice".
Tina Fey used the term "Goofy Pluto" to refer to seemingly disparate roles for guest stars on _30 Rock,_ namely the mismatch between Jennifer Aniston playing a character in the show in the same episode in which the cast of _Night Court_appears as themselves in the episode titled "The One with the Cast of _Night Court_."[18]
*please note: collecting and selling comics has been my hobby for over 30 years. Due to the hours of my job i can usually only mail packages out on saturdays. I send out first class or priority mail which takes 2-5 days or more to arrive in the usa and air mail international which takes 5 - 30 days depending on where you live in the world. I do not "sell" postage or packaging and charge less than the actual cost of mailing. I package items securely and wrap well. Most pages come in an archival sleeve with acid free backing board at no extra charge. If you are dissatisfied with an item. Let me know and i wil do my best to make it right.
Many thanks to all of my 1,000's of past customers around the world.

Video Games[Edit]
Pluto appeared as a non-playable character in _Mickey Mania_ (1994).
In the _Kingdom Hearts_ video game series, Pluto is still Mickey's pet and acts as somewhat of a messenger, assisting in his master's plans. For most of _Kingdom Hearts II_, Pluto stays by Kairi's side (even when she has been kidnapped), as he has apparently taken a liking to her. Strangely, throughout the series, Pluto appears and disappears at random moments.
Disney Parks[Edit]
In the various Disney theme park resorts around the world, Pluto is a meetable character just like many of his film co-stars.[17] Pluto, however, uncharacteristically walks on two legs in this capacity out of necessity. Adults and children are able to meet, play with, and get autographs and pictures with Pluto and his friends at all Disney parks.
Confusion Concerning Pluto and Goofy[Edit]
This problem was humorously illustrated in the film _Stand By Me_ in which one of the boys ponders, "Mickey's a mouse, Donald's a duck, and Pluto's a dog. What's Goofy?" Also in the series _Funniest Pets & People_ a dog "mentions" why couldn't he have pants because Goofy was a dog and had pants. There is also an episode of the Disney Channel series _Even Stevens_ called "Scrub Day" wherein Louis' rallying-the-troops speech he wonders why Goofy got to walk and talk and Pluto has to eat from a dog bowl. This confusion is also mentioned in the French movie _La Cité de la peur_. In the Disney's Toontown Online event "April Toons Week," characters switch playgrounds and everything is silly. Pluto switches places with Minnie Mouse, and he speaks. A brief gag in an episode of _House of Mouse_ also acknowledges this. Hades asks Goofy, "Are you a man, are you a dog, are you a man-dog . . . what are you?". Goofy simply replies, "I'm just Goofy." The confusion between Goofy and Pluto is also mentioned in an episode of _Full House_ by Dave Coulier's character, Joey.Disney has dealt with a certain amount of confusion concerning the fact that Pluto (an ordinary dog) is treated as a household pet while the anthropomorphic Goofy is treated as a human despite being of the same species. On their web site, it stated that "Goofy was originally created as Dippy Dawg" and "was created as a human character, as opposed to Pluto who was a pet, so [Goofy] walked upright and had a speaking voice".
Tina Fey used the term "Goofy Pluto" to refer to seemingly disparate roles for guest stars on _30 Rock,_ namely the mismatch between Jennifer Aniston playing a character in the show in the same episode in which the cast of _Night Court_appears as themselves in the episode titled "The One with the Cast of _Night Court_."[18]
*please note: collecting and selling comics has been my hobby for over 30 years. Due to the hours of my job i can usually only mail packages out on saturdays. I send out first class or priority mail which takes 2-5 days or more to arrive in the usa and air mail international which takes 5 - 30 days depending on where you live in the world. I do not "sell" postage or packaging and charge less than the actual cost of mailing. I package items securely and wrap well. Most pages come in an archival sleeve with acid free backing board at no extra charge. If you are dissatisfied with an item. Let me know and i wil do my best to make it right.
Many thanks to all of my 1,000's of past customers around the world.
enjoy your hobby everyone and have fun collecting!
