Scooby-Doo
Scooby-Doo is not a dog. Granted, he does have the comportment and vocal characteristic of a canine, but this is, in fact, the tragic consequence of a botched elective surgery that Scooby underwent at the hands of his friend Shaggy, who was briefly enrolled in a plastic-surgery program at a medical school that he no longer attends. Additionally, Scooby’s predilection for Scooby Snacks should not be understood as the desire that a dog might have for dog treats. In truth, Mr. Doo is an aspiring entrepreneur who created the Scooby Snack as a healthy nibble for human consumption, and his obsession with them is a mark of his commitment to the brand that he is building. The fact that Mr. Doo has been central to the solving of multiple criminal investigations should make it abundantly clear that has the intellect of a man, and not that of a dog.
