Trusty

Trusty is a major character in Lady and the Tramp, and a supporting character in the sequel.  He is an elderly, somewhat senile bloodhound with a weakened sense of smell. He speaks with a US Southern accent. He was voiced by the late Bill Baucum in the original, Jeff Bennett in the sequel, and Sam Elliot in the live action remake.
== Background ==
===Lady and the Tramp===
Trusty is the neighbor of Lady, and possibly the oldest dog in the film. According to Jock and himself, he was once a service dog working alongside his grandfather, the esteemed Old Reliable, to track down and capture criminals before eventually having his age catch up to him, which is when he supposedly lost his sense of smell for a number of years. Though Trusty firmly believes his strong sense of smell remains intact, Jock believes otherwise (though he refuses to admit it, not wanting to hurt Trusty's feelings).
Now retired, Trusty spends his days alongside his best friends, Jock and Lady, who hold a strong kinship with the old dog.
Trusty can usually seem absentminded and a little clumsy, but is a loyal, sweet and respectful friend to Lady and everyone else. He has a large way with manners, referring to Lady as "Miss Lady, ma'am." He can also be a blabbermouth, and regularly connects a story or topic to a piece of advice given to him from Old Reliable, with a statement going as followed: "As my grandpappy Old Reliable used to say, uh... Don't recollect if I've ever mentioned Old Reliable before," to which his friends would reply by stating he has.
Near the end, it is he and Jock who saved Tramp from going to the pound to redeem themselves for misjudging Tramp since the first moment they met him, though Trusty gets injured in the process.
At the very end Trusty is about to tell it to Lady and Tramp's puppies, he realizes that he's completely forgotten what Old Reliable said to him now (as such, we, the audience, never actually learn what the advice was).
===Lady and the Tramp II: Scamp's Adventure===
Trusty reappears in the sequel and first appears in the beginning as he watches Lady, Tramp, and their family stroll through the neighborhood. He and Jock later appears after Scamp has ran away. Annette, Collette and Danielle bring the news and that's when Trusty brought back one of his old stories and mentioned the time he saved Tramp. Trusty and Jock joins the group as they search for Scamp. In the end, everyone is reunited once again.
===Lady and the Tramp (2019)===
Trusty seems to live in the Neighbors house, and Jock was suprised when she got Lady's collar when she was so impressed about everything. After Darling's having a baby she saw the neighbors dogs when the Tramp came in to visit when he was smelling an intruder afoot, after that night, Tramp was caught by Elliott, the Dogcatcher and he'll help her save him from the Dogcatcher.
