Ren Höek

Ren Höek is one of the two titular protagonists of The Ren & Stimpy Show. He is a scrawny "asthma-hound" chihuahua with a floppy body, donkey-like ears, neon-pink eyes with dark red pupils, red eyelids, and a fairly long, rat-like, pink tail who often calls his best friend Stimpy an idiot ("eediot", to quote the character).
Ren is vain, spiteful, hyperactive, abusive, and gets irritated (especially by Stimpy) very easily. His lifelong ambition is to have huge pectoral muscles (which somehow, in real life, is uncommon). Ren's name is the real name of Kricfalusi's building manager. He was born on Tuesday the 17th.
Ren was originally voiced by Kricfalusi (in a voice homaging that of ), and later by Billy West after Kricfalusi was fired, although Kricfalusi would return to the role for . In Nicktoons MLB, Chris Edgerly provided the character's voice.
== Trivia ==
* Before Ren was voiced by John Kricfalusi and eventually Billy West, many voice actors had auditioned for the role, including Joe Alaskey, Frank Welker, Carlos Alazraqui, Jack Angel, Patrick Pinney, and Townsend Coleman.https://twitter.com/renstimpyfacts/status/955112882307411970
*In 2002, Ren and Stimpy were both ranked #31 in TV Guide's Top 50 Greatest Cartoon Characters list (which also included Angelica Pickles at #7 and SpongeBob SquarePants at #9).
*At the beginning of the series, Ren had a long, pink, rat-like tail, but most other times it's not there. The reason for Ren's tail disappearing altogether was that creator John Kricfalusi hated animating it, so most of the time, he just left it out.
