Character description
Mumbly is an bipedal dog with blue, scruffy fur and a black tail. He is always seen wearing a bright orange trenchcoat. Like his progenitor Muttley, Mumbly is rather mischievous and likes to snicker at misfortune. He does not like to get humiliated and harshly yelled at, and would grumble when things do not go as planned.
In The Mumbly Cartoon Show, the detective canine dedicates himself in catching criminals using an array of skills. He works with the human Chief Schnooker, who assigns him on extravagant missions. He also drives in an old car that is always in the verge of breaking down.
In Laff-A-Lympics, he is the captain and member of the Really Rottens. Though he was a hero in his earlier cartoon, the character acted more or less like Muttley here. Working as a sidekick to Dread Baron (a derivative of Dastardly), he cheats by tricking the athletes of other teams and laying traps. In the end, the two are sore losers and would often fail on their backs in competitions.
