### Debut

The Christmas Dog

Doug the Dog, AKA The Christmas Dog, is a main character (and main dog) in the JCI Universe and the main protagonist in the Christmas Dog films.

Backstory:

Doug was born sometime in 2020. He stayed in the same pet shop as Ranger the Dog, Jake and Diana Dyna's dog, for a year until a man named Jason Serious adopted him in early 2021. Jason Serious was very inventive, and made all sorts of gadgets. Like a watch that can hide his powers from the Zandex, a flying car, even a laser that accidentally made Doug talk! One day, Jason Serious learned an alternate version of Doug in this universe too. Worried the Zandex might spot him with two Dougs near him, he gave Doug back to the pound. Doug stayed there until November 2021, when a man named George picked him out for an early Christmas present for his son, Lincoln. Lincoln then named Doug "the Christmas Dog" when he got him on December 1st, which Doug accepted. The day George gave him to Lincoln, he saw another dog: that looked exactly like him! Doug thought it must have been an evil twin he never knew about. The other Doug said yes, and his name was Gearld, and he was going to kill him and his family! Gearld tied Doug up and killed Lincoln with his famous pistol. Doug had escaped and told George what Gearld had done. As George went down to look at the dead body, Gearld tied up Doug again, and pretended to be Doug so he could kill George. George escaped, and found Doug tied up. Doug had found one of Gearld's spare guns, so they fought Gearld. But Gearld shot George, so Doug, fueled by rage, fought Gearld until Christmas Eve. Santa, however, was just arriving to give presents to Lincoln's brother and mother, saw them fighting, so he helped Doug by blasting Gearld away with his Christmas Magic.

A week or two later, in January 2022, Gearld returned, and after a failed attack on Gram Gilham to let out his vengeance, Gearld decided to kill people in the town were the Christmas Dog lived so the Christmas Dog would come fight him. Doug decided to come out, so they fought. Right in the middle of the battle, they were both captured by the Evil Pillow Dog.

Doug was held in the EPD Base until June 2022, when he was ready to be drained. Just before it drained out all of his strength, he was saved by Gram, Bob Gilham and Smart Master, who had just escaped themselves. The EPD attacked them right before they escaped, and fought them, but they managed to escape.

In September 2022, Gearld, who had also escaped, was weaking havoc again, so Doug fought him. Gearld shot him with a rubber bullet gun by mistake, and knocked Doug out. Doug had a vision of when he was a little puppy, of when Jason Serious was talking with his friend about that Doug needed to go back to the pound, and that his sister, Daisy, needed to be gone from the city. The friend agreed, then walked off.

Doug woke up, realizing he needed to find his old owner. He searched for him until he found his house and asked him if he had a sister. Jason Serious told him he didn't, and that Daisy is him: from another universe.
