Good question, deserves a good answer but sadly not for me 

What animal is Goofy? 

How is random is that? 

Haha I am watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse as we speak (baby's favourite) and I am stumped.  Is he a dog?  

Google tells me he is a dog.  And it must have been a popular question because as soon as I typed in 'what type of ani..' the auto text came up and one of the suggestions was 'what type of animal is goofy'

 to Ells and baby Ells 

I just had the Danny Baker show on on the radio and he said that Goofy didn't represent any animal. So I googled and came up with an anthropomorphic dog 

I think there are quite a few animals on kids tv shows which are confusing.  And highly annoying.  The cartoons themselves are annoying.  The catchphrase on MMClubhouse is 'we've got ears, say cheers'.  Eh?  What?

It's probably a popular question because Gordie asks it in the film "Stand by Me". I've always taken it for granted that he's a dog, but I think the confusion (and it's mentioned in the film) is due to the fact that Mickey has a real dog; Pluto.

Danny Baker's often pretty good on popular culture, but he does sometimes get stuff wrong. When Goofy first appeared in a cartoon in 1932, he was known as Dippy Dawg, which is a bit of a giveaway.

from Wiki:

Disney has needed to deal with a certain amount of confusion concerning the fact that the anthropomorphic Goofy is treated as a human while Pluto (an ordinary dog) is treated as a household pet, despite being of the same species. On their web site, it stated that "Goofy was originally created as Dippy Dawg" and "was created as a human character, as opposed to Pluto, who was a pet, so [Goofy] walked upright and had a speaking voice". This problem was humorously illustrated in the movie Stand by Me in which one of the boys ponders, "Mickey's a mouse, Donald's a duck, and Pluto's a dog. What's Goofy?" There is also an episode of the Disney Channel series Even Stevens called "Scrub Day" where in Louis' rallying-the-troops speech he wonders why Goofy got to walk and talk and Pluto has to eat from a dog bowl.

Moomins - bizarre

OI Sainty, I am not bizarre 

A little weird, maybe...

Well, ok a lot weird...

Perhaps bizarre is the best description after all 

I'm watching Crufts. Why do the handlers pull the dogs into shape   Let them stand they way they want 

And who the hell said it is necessary to have fur overgrowing their eyes??

Poor things

I swear there was one dog moved it's back paw only about two inches, so the handler pushed it back in, the dog did it again...the handler pushed it back again...why? 

Terrier judging 

I can imagine 

Not much keen on that winner 

You could possibly have Aims, coming up to spring and different kinds of pollen in the air.  Try anti histamines  

Awww, what a lovely dog Claire's got with her. A Foxhound

Bit of Sun and I'm off

TBH, I've been thinking I've got a head cold but I'm wondering if that's what I've got now...hayfever. I might try Anti's tomorrow 

Oh, I wonder if it won the class and the judging was filmed earlier. The dog she had has just been shown 

Those Irish Wolfhounds are like horses 

LOL! What breed have you got Velvs? 

Aww, the Foxhound wasn't in the final judging

I've just seen the bit where the dogs where racing in two teams, how the he'll did they get them to do that

Training Aims, they know what they've got to do and it's practice  It is brilliant though  

Nice dog 

They've just shown the contenders so far....I want the Alaskan Malamut to win it 

I need to watch NCIS from the beginning. I've only just got in to it since I've been out of work and it's quite good but I'm all disjointed at the minute and I don't know which order things happen in 

Some of us are like that all the time Sprout
