After their own series ended, the Ruggs guest starred in several of H-B's MassiveMultiplayerCrossover projects, such as ''WesternAnimation/YogisArkLark'', ''WesternAnimation/YogisGang'' and ''WesternAnimation/YogisTreasureHunt''. They've also been used in some Creator/CartoonNetwork and Creator/AdultSwim parodies, such as an appearance on ''WesternAnimation/HarveyBirdmanAttorneyAtLaw'' and a Creator/{{Boomerang}} short that has Maw and Paw appearing on an {{Expy}} of ''Series/TheJerrySpringerShow''. Paw and Shag also have a {{Cameo}} in ''WesternAnimation/WackyRaces2017''. As with many parts of the H-B canon, the Ruggs make full appearances in ''WesternAnimation/{{Jellystone}}'', with Shag in particular as a major character.
