==Biography==
===Lady and the Tramp===
In the first film, Lady is seen as a puppy being given as a Christmas present by Jim Dear to his wife Darling. At first, Jim Dear attempts to keep Lady in the kitchen to sleep, but eventually gives in and allows her to sleep in his and Darling's bed.
Upon maturity, Lady is given a collar by her owners and befriends two neighbouring dogs named Jock and Trusty. Sometime later, Lady is confused as to why Jim Dear and Darling are acting strange towards her, to which Jock and Trusty tell her that it's because they are expecting a baby. A stray dog named Tramp tells Lady that when the baby arrives, she will be put outside.
Eventually, the baby is born and Lady takes a liking to him. However, when Jim Dear and Darling go away for a trip, Aunt Sarah is left in charge of the baby and keeps Lady away from him. After Sarah's cats Si and Am cause a mess in the house, Lady is blamed for it and has a muzzle put on her. Lady then flees Sarah and is pursued by a pack of stray dogs, but is rescued by Tramp who takes her to a zoo where a beaver manages to remove the muzzle. Lady then goes with Tramp to a restaurant called Tony's where they have a candlelit dinner, where both dogs feel romance for each other. Despite her growing love for Tramp, Lady decides to return home to watch over the baby.
When walking Lady home, Tramp ends up chasing hens for fun. Whilst this is going on, Lady is captured by the Dogcatcher who takes her to the pound. Whilst there, Lady is told by the other dogs that Tramp has had multiple girlfriends in the past and it would be unlikely for him to settle down. Lady is reclaimed by Sarah, who chains her to her kennel as punishment for running away. Tramp later comes to Lady, who confronts him about rumors of previous girlfriends. But she expresses regrets for being too hard and mean to him as he was sadly leaving. After Tramp leaves, Lady notices a rat trying to get into the house and barks at it. Sarah (unaware of the rat) tells Lady to be quite.
Tramp hears Lady's barking and goes into the house to get rid of the rat. Lady is able to free herself and goes to the nursery where Tramp battles and kills the rat and accidentally knocks over the baby's crib. The noise alerts Sarah who believes that both Lady and Tramp were responsible for the incident. She puts Tramp in a closet and locks Lady in the basement, before calling the Dogcatcher to take Tramp away. After the Dogcatcher leaves, Jim Dear and Darling return and release Lady, who leads them to the dead rat. Realising that Tramp was protecting the baby from the rat, Jim Dear and Darling along with Lady, Trusty and Jock, go after the Dogcatcher to retrieve Tramp. They are able to stop the Dogcatcher's wagon and retrieve Tramp, but the reunion is cut short when they discovered that Trusty has been nearly killed in the process.
At Christmas, Lady is seen with Tramp (whom Jim Dear and Darling adopted) along with their four puppies (three daughters that resemble Lady and a son that resembles Tramp) and Jock and Trusty (who had survived being ran over).
===Lady and the Tramp 2===
Lady returns in the sequel, but to a smaller role compared to the original. Lady and Tramp are portrayed as loving parents, caring for their puppies, notably more developed since the Christmas spent together at the end of the first film. Their daughters, Annette, Collette, and Danielle, are quite spoiled and snooty, while their son, Scamp, is portrayed as somewhat of a rebel and troublemaker, wanting to live a life similar to that of Tramp's past. His behavior causes tension for both Lady and Tramp, and the growing disconnect between him and his parents prompts him to run away and live amongst the Junkyard Dogs. A search party ensues involving Lady, but after a while, he returns with a change of heart, and a new member of the family, Angel. She is warmly welcomed by Lady, who celebrates the reformation of her family.
