In popular culture

• The Venture Bros., a parody of Jonny Quest, had Rusty Venture and then his sons have a pet dog named Scamp, who always ended up dying.
• In the Recess episode "The Coolest Heatwave Ever," Gus revealed that he and his lieutenant father saved the world's economy after they captured DeSilvo while skiing in the Alps. Gus also owned a Bandit-esque dog called Hoodlum at the time. After DeSilvo was captured, Hoodlum barked, causing Gus and his father to laugh.
