Doggie Daddy is an anthropomorphic dog, father of a son, Augie, and one of the main title characters in the Augie Doggie and Doggie Daddy animated television shorts, which came as part of The Quick Draw McGraw Show. He is a parental figure who tries his best to raise his rambunctious son from all sorts of trouble. Though he may not be as competent as Augie, he shares a strong bond with him and is sometimes openly warm to his ambitious goals. His voice was originated by Doug Young, then by John Stephenson in most of Doggie Daddy's later appearances, replacing Young who had retired.

Character description

Doggie Daddy is an adult male dog, most likely that of a Dachshund breed. He has orange fur and has black ears. He also wears a purple collar around his neck.

A smooth-talking parental figure, Doggie Daddy (or "dear old Dad" as Augie calls him) is a mentor with a heavy Brooklyn accent who would occassionally give out strict advise to his child Augie, though much often to the latter's dismay. Although he may have been a blustering old-fashioned father figure on the surface, he is no stranger to indulge in Aguie's wishes and is incredibly warm to accept them, no matter how ambitious and seemingly dangerous they are. Their mutual admiration includes Doggie Daddy gently chiding, "Augie, my son, my son", when he would disappoint his father; and when his son would say or do something that inspired pride, Doggie Daddy would turn to the audience with a smile and declare, "Dat's my boy who said dat!" In addition to his deep affection and concern for Augie, their strong bond is also what keeps Doggie Daddy from getting into trouble in most of their misadventures, either as a result of Doggie Daddy's parenting or Augie's schemes going too far.

Development

When The Quick Draw McGraw Show was being developed, the concept of Augue Doggie & Doggie Daddy was concieved using traits from Spike & Tyke from the Tom and Jerry theatrical cartoons, including their father-son dynamic; they were made due in part to William Hanna and Joseph Barbera reusing ideas from their previous work at MGM.

In a Variety magazine article on January 8, 1959, the father-son pair were originally named "Pete" and "Repete." A January 28 Variety article later stated that the series would be called "Arf and Arf," which was then changed to Augie Doggie and Doggie Daddy in the final product.

Similar to Spike, Doggie Daddy's voice was based on American actor and singer Jimmy Durante. Daws Butler did not repeat on using a Durante impression like he did with Spike, as it was proven difficult to do and resulted in Barbera to hold auditions for the role. According to Doug Young in an interview with Stu Shostak, Butler ran into him at a library and was told to make an audition tape for Hanna-Barbera. Young auditioned for Doggie Daddy alongside comedic actor Peter Leeds.

In popular culture

• In the Robot Chicken skit "Laff-a-Munich" segment of the episode "Ban on the Fun," he is one of the Yogi Yahooeys teammates who are taken hostage by the Really Rottens, however while trying to defend himself, he is shot and killed by Mumbly.
• In the Family Guy episode "Brothers & Sisters," Doggie Daddy appears as one of Carol's ex-husbands. He couldn't devote himself to her completely because he was too involved in raising Augie. He unsuccessfully tried to get her back once Augie was grown up.
• In "Episode 18" (series 7) of the UK BBC One quiz show Pointless, the first round of questions that fell into the "Cartoon" category is Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters, with host Alexander Armstrong showing an image of several of them together. The contestants have to be able to pick out all the obscure characters that 100 anonymous public people had been able to guess. Nobody chose Doggie Daddy, who would've been the pointless answer, as nobody from the public could name him in the image.
• In the Gui and Estopa episode "As Encomendas" ("Orders"), Augie and Daddy are seen waiting in line for the Scooby Snacks store.
