Here's the comic where it showed his father -- > https://archive.org/details/QuickDrawMcGraw8Dell1961/page/n16/mode/1up. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 21:30, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Wife

Do we know that his wife divorced him or just died? This is really a common occurrence with cartoon animals. I mean, just look at Goofy and Max. -- MisterJames (talk) 19:17, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Yes but what Yowp theorized sounds accurate enough.[1] -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 20:37, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
It's unknown what happened to her after that. I don't really think HB deals with "death" that much when it came to their "early cartoons" (late 50s-1962). -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 20:41, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
I don't know, I guess it's implied that Daddy acts like this is a natural thing, but then maybe he's just commenting on the fact that Augie is just getting to that age where he is being noticed by girls. It's too speculatory. -- MisterJames (talk)
Unless Daddy actually mentions his wife, I don't think we should assume. -- MisterJames (talk) 23:09, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
Since Yowp just assumed this, I guess it doesn't count. Though it does sound accurate for Daddy to run off from her considering that's what Yogi did with Cindy. Should I remove all mentions of Mrs. Doggie Daddy? -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 00:37, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
Yes, please. I wish I could see it more than it is, but I can't. -- MisterJames (talk) 00:41, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

I read up that it was a common thing for mothers to pass away back then, so the real explanation is that she passed away after Augie was born, pretty dark thing to think about honestly. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 19:47, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Harvey Birdman appearances

Those feel more like guest appearances for characters like Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, Quick Draw McGraw, Hokey Wolf, Scooby-Doo, Wally Gator etc. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 17:57, 11 March 2021 (UTC)

They guests, but Harvey Birdman is still kind of a HB show to an extent. That new section was really supposed to be like outside of the void of that, like those that appeared in new Animaniacs, or Scooby appearing in Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Duck Dodgers. I feel that Doggie Daddy's appearance in Harvey Birdman has more validity than his appearance in Family Guy. Jonny Quest in Venture Bros. complicates things a bit, but the fact that they changed the names for legal reasons justifies it more falling in the same category as Family Guy than Harvey Birdman If that makes sense. -- MisterJames (talk) 18:08, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
Yeah, I pretty much know that, Although it isn't entirely canon for these characters. Canon doesn't entirely matter, it's still an HB related series. Although Doggie Daddy's appearance in Harvey Birdman seems a little more canon than his Family Guy appearance. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 18:18, 11 March 2021 (UTC)

Name

He was called "Augie Daddy" in one comic[2], either this was an error or his actual name which would explain why he changed his name to "Doggie Daddy". -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 23:35, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
