History WesternAnimation / PlutoThePup

* OutOfFocus: He's only made one appearance in the 2013 Mickey Mouse series.

He acted as a foil for WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck, {{Figaro}}, Butch the Bulldog, ChipAndDale, and sometimes Salty the Seal and Milton the cat. In some comic stories he is also the official mascot for the [[ComicBook/DisneyDucksComicUniverse Junior Woodchucks.]]

* LoveTriangle: The main plot of "Pluto's Heart Throb", in which he and Butch vie for the affections of Dinah the female dachshund.

* StalkerWithACrush: Pluto occasionally gets like this towards Dinah the dachshund.

* Mickey's Polo Team

!1942

* StrictlyFormula: ''Many'' of the shorts are centered around Pluto either befriending another animal or becoming an enemy of another animal, with the gags ensueing from his botched attempts to deal with them--sometimes a combo of both is used.

** He also makes an appearance in the {{Goofy}} short "Victory Vehicles", a WartimeCartoon. This cartoon shows alternate modes of transportation (since gas and rubber were rationed). One vehicle is powered by a dog (hence, Pluto) that chases after a cat (a scraggly-looking {{Figaro}}), when it's put front of him.

He acted as a foil for WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck, {{Figaro}}, Butch the Bulldog, ChipAndDale, and sometimes Salty the Seal. In some comic stories he is also the official mascot for the [[ComicBook/DisneyDucksComicUniverse Junior Woodchucks.]]

* TheCameo: He makes a brief appearance in the ''WesternAnimation/{{Recess}}'' episode "Rainy Days".

* DerangedAnimation: "Plutopia", which was infamous enough to get a {{Homage}} in EpicMickey.

* FurryConfusion: An age old question which has plagued mankind since the 30's; how can Pluto and {{Goofy}} share the same universe, if {{Goofy}} is also (allegedly) a dog?

-->--The second of two lines ever spoken by Pluto, from "Mickey Steps Out"--although it's technically a shout out to TheJazzSinger.

'''''Pluto The Pup''''' is an animated cartoon character from the WaltDisney cartoon studio, the loyal pet of MickeyMouse and, for a while, the star of his own series of short subjects during TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation. At one point, he even overshadowed the mouse in his own cartoons. He is notable for being one of the few recurring classic Disney animal characters who is not anthropomorphized.

He acted as a foil for DonaldDuck, {{Figaro}}, Butch the Bulldog, ChipAndDale, and sometimes Salty the Seal. In some comic stories he is also the official mascot for the [[ComicBook/DisneyDucksComicUniverse Junior Woodchucks.]]

* {{Jerkass}}: It shows up, but not as much as in DonaldDuck.

* Pluto And The Armadillo: Last {{Classic Disney Short|s}} featuring MickeyMouse in his [[MemeticOutfit iconic]] [[HalfDressedCartoonAnimal outfit]].

* ThePrinceAndThePauper

* BigFriendlyDog: Most of the time. He has a temper and an occasional selfish streak, but is loyal to Mickey and has more limits in his Jerkass tendancies than, say, Donald.

* TheCameo: He makes a brief appearance in the ''{{Recess}}'' episode "Rainy Days".

* FireAndBrimstoneHell: In "Pluto's Judgemeny Day".

Oh yes, and don't confuse him with the former Planet, [[AstroBoy that other Pluto]], [[ClassicalMythology the god also known as Hades]], and ''especially'' not that {{Pluto}}. And no, [[PlutoIsExpendable he is not expendable.]] (Though he sure is [[TheChewToy treated that way]])

* Springtime For Pluto

He acted as a foil for DonaldDuck, {{Figaro}}, Butch the Bulldog, ChipAndDale, and sometimes Salty the Seal. In some comic stories he is also the official mascot for the [[DisneyDucksComicUniverse Junior Woodchucks.]]
