Dino is a Snorkasaurus and supporting character in the Flintstones animated franchise. His voice was originated by Mel Blanc.

He was originally owned by both Fred and Wilma Flintstone, with his adoration of Fred making him more of a pest than a pet at times. In The Flintstone Kids, it was retconned that Fred had owned Dino since childhood.

Biography

Dino Sells Out

In the Captain Planet and the Planeteers episode "Who's Running the Show?," to get into Fred Lerner's TV studio unnoticed by the Eco-Villains, the Planeteers dress like mucky versions of the Flintstones and Rubbles. When they are revealed to be in costume, an instrumental version of "(Meet) The Flintstones" plays, and Wheeler leads the other Planeteers into the mission by announcing "Okay, Planeteers, time to do our yabba-dabba-duty." Kwame is dressed in a full Dino suit.

• In the TV special The Joe Piscopo New Jersey Special, in a nightclub that is supposed to be in Hollyrock, California, Joe Piscopo plays Fred presenting The Flintstones: The Lost Episodes, with Danny DeVito as his co-host, Barney. They show a clip from one of their favorite never-before-seen episodes, which involves Fred and Barney outside Fred's house, discussing Fred's anger over eighteen-year-old Pebbles dating a neanderthal. After finding a letter from Pebbles announcing her engagement, Fred and Barney plan to find her, with Fred ordering Dino (a badly dressed dog in a green cloth) to follow them.
• In the Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures episode "Don't Touch That Dial," the amoeba pet's love for his owner, Al Jetstone, is similar to Dino's love for Fred.
• In the Full House episode "Happy Birthday, Babies, Part 2," Danny is dressed in a Dino suit for Michelle's Flintstones-themed birthday party.
• In the movie Adventures in Dinosaur City (aka Dinosaur), there is a cartoon called Dino Saurs which acts as a parody of The Flintstones, with a garden hedge that resembles Dino.

• In The Fairly OddParents TV movie Channel Chasers, Timmy and the fairies zap themselves into the TV world of The Meatflints which has its own Baby Puss, but with the colors of Dino.
• In The Boondocks episode "The Uncle Ruckus Reality Show," new BET President Wedgie Rudlin comes up with several different ideas in his first meeting, he pitches to his staff an idea for a new cartoon that is "loosely" inspired by The Flintstones, in which Dino is now a rottweiler or pitbull, and Bedrock is changed to Africa to "keep it real."
• Dino has a cameo in the direct-to-video The Drawn Together Movie: The Movie!
• 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 Dino, who would've scored 16 points from the anonymous public who knew him.
• In the Mad episode "Battleship vs Titanic/Jurassic Park and Recreation," there is a skit called "Hey, whatever happened to that guy from that TV show I kinda remember from when I was a kid?," where we get a glimpse of what happened to Fred after his TV show was cancelled when the creators realized that cavemen didn't exist the same time as dinosaurs and that Dino died due to a comet.
• In celebration of Warner Bros.' 100th anniversary, they produced a special short which had the Looney Tunes characters dressed as Flintstones characters while taking a group photo in Bedrock, with Wile E. Coyote in a full Dino suit.
• In the Teen Titans Go! episode "Intro," the Teen Titans chase Control Freak into the "(Meet) The Flintstones" title sequence of The Flintstones, where the Titans steal the Flintmobile and go to the outdoor movie theater themselves, with Beast Boy transforming into a green-colored Dino to pop his head through the car roof to see where Control Freak went.
