### Debut

Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!

Scooby was born at the Dooville Veterinary Hospital to Mumsy and Dada-Doo. He first words were "Scooby Doo," so his father decided to name him that.

He and Shaggy Rogers had an encounter with their Frankenstein-type babysitter and a sea monster, when they were infants.

He was with Shaggy when they both entered Selma's store for the first time.

When the gang were babies, he and Shaggy were digging, when a monster scared him out of his diaper. He landed on one end of the see-saw, which sent the monster (who was on the other end) flying. Upon landing, they found that Red Herring was the monster.

He shared a laugh with Velma Dinkley when she learned about Scooby Snacks.

He was with Shaggy when he checked out the Pizza Parrot and the Butterbean Bunnies book at the Coolsville Public Library. When Mrs. Shusham told him there was no talking and no puppy-slurping allowed in the library, he left annoyed, calling her a grouch. One day, Shaggy dropped the book in a pile of bones, and Scooby accidentally buried them in the backyard.

He attended Velma's 5th birthday party, eating ice cream with Shaggy.

At an unknown period, he saved Colonel Beauregard Sanders from drowning in a fish pond. To repay him for his heroic deed, the Colonel had Scooby remembered in his will.

He was Roxanne's boyfriend for an unknown period (slightly younger than he was at the time of the Black Knight case), but they had to break up because he and Shaggy (boyfriend of Roxanne's owner, Rachel) were going on the road with the gang, and a long-distance relationship wouldn't work out, but they still wanted to be friends.

## Personality

Scooby-Doo and Shaggy share several personality traits, mostly being constantly hungry, being scared easily and most of the time refuse to help others, but their friends (Velma Dinkley, Daphne Blake and Fred Jones) encourage them to go after the costumed villains usually with "Scooby Snacks", a biscuit-like dog treat or cookie snack (usually shaped like a bone or as shown in later versions of the cartoons Scooby's dog tag), though occasionally appealing to Scooby-Doo inherent loyalty and courage to take a more heroic stance.

His catch phrase, usually howled at the end of every mystery, is "Scooby-Dooby-Doo!" or "Rooby-Rooby-Roo", sometimes followed by a quirky chuckle.

He enjoys a lot of attention and would sometimes appear brave and heroic.

When he solves cases with his nephew Scrappy-Doo, he's very protective of him, as he often runs after him to prevent him from going straight to the monster or ghost.

## Appearance

Scooby is brown from head to toe with several distinctive black spots on his upper body. He is generally a quadruped, but displays bipedal 'human' characteristics occasionally. Scooby also has opposible thumbs and can use his front paws like hands. He has a black nose and wears an off-yellow, diamond shaped-tagged blue-green collar with an "SD" (his initials) and has four toes on each foot and unlike other dogs, Scooby only has one pad on the sole of each of his feet.

As a pup, he wore a scarf and ear muffs in cold climates.
