Moby/Trivia

*His name is based on the book called Moby-Dick by Herman Melville and the titular whale of said book.
*Portuguese Water Dogs (Moby's dog breed) are highly intelligent and independent, which may have inspired his character traits of inventing and wanting to be away from the Mer-pups. 
*Moby's personality is similar to the Dr. Seuss character, The Grinch.
**Both hate celebrations (festives, Christmas).
**Both live in solitude.
**Both are ingenious to make their lives easier.
**Both have animal sidekicks (dog, squid).
**Unlike Moby, the Grinch reformed.
*Moby does not like when the Mer-pups sing and celebrate as it makes him unhappy.
*He is the second Mer-pup to speak after Coral.
**He was only able to speak after Zuma paw-bumped him, accidentally turning him into a Land-pup.
**Before then, he only spoke Mer-Pup. However, he retained his ability to speak after he transformed back into a Mer-Pup, so it is currently unknown if he can still speak Mer-pup.
*He is the second villain to have an actual animal (not a plush) for a sidekick.
**The first being Claw (Sparks).
*He is the first Mer-pup villain in the series.
*He is the seventh pup to serve as an antagonist.
*He has a robotic claw like Rex and Claw, but it is designed more similarly as Rex's.
*Moby is the second character in the series to wear headphones.
**The first being Shade from the Cat Pack.
*This is the fourth animal (third, if you don't count the events of "Pups Save a Flying Farmhouse") to talk besides the main pup team.
**First is Chickaletta (Chase in her body).
**Second is The Copycat.
***Ironically, both actually could not talk until something dramatic happened (The Copycat gets hit with a piece of the meteor, Zuma and Rocky showed Moby how to paw-bump, which allowed him to talk for the first time) and they both despise the PAW Patrol.
*He is one of the three dogs/pups to be voiced by an Asian voice actor, Ian Ho, who is of Chinese descent in PAW Patrol.
**The others being Al and Coral.
**Overall, he is one of the six dogs/pups to be voiced by an Asian voice actor in the whole series.
**The others being Al and Coral from PAW Patrol, Nano in PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie and Auntie Crane and Mix from Rubble & Crew.
*It is revealed in "Aqua Pups: Pups Save the Whale Patroller" that Moby likes pup treats.
*His Mer-pup variant is featured as a figurine in Kids World, a German pudding dessert that comes with a surprise toy, making this his only toy, which is exclusive to Germany.
**He is the fourth pup antagonist and the sixth animal antagonist overall (not counting the Kitten Catastrophe Crew) to receive toy merchandise. Before him came Sweetie, Claw, Sparks, Hubcap, and Meow-Meow, while Boomer came after him.
*Moby hasn't been seen in his Mer-pup form since "Aqua Pups: Pups Save a Floating Castle".
*Moby has ten main hair tufts upon his head and ten cowries on his necklace. This is likely in reference to his strong association with squids, which have ten tentacles.
