Character Annexure

Doggy Don: The genial dog who lives in the house where all the action takes place or originates from. He?s genuinely gullible, peace-loving and easy to fool and will try and get back what is his from his enemies by harmless means, usually. It is his bad luck that he is dealing with the ultra-violent 3 mice who will not back down.

Colonel: Don?s elder brother, Fauji is a hard-core ex-army dog - high on jingoism and brawn and low on brain. He makes up for Don?s general peaceful demeanor by being ultra-violent. Even though his antics are usually out-done by the 3 mice who knock him out regularly.

Motu - As the name suggest, the fat mouse who is greedier than the other two. He has a tiny pot belly and a massive appetite for anything, whether it is food or bones or even cartons - anything that can be eaten and digested. He usually is the cause of most of the trouble since he wants to eat more than the other 2 mice. He is also the baby of the group, the youngest mouse.

Lambu- The cool dude, that tall mouse who is more of an operations guy. Lambu has the unfair advantage of being slightly distant and does not care for anything other than doing what Chotu tells him.

Chotu - The brains of the group, he is the agent provocateur of the trio. He is the one who provides all the explosives and the insane ways and plans of getting even with Don and Colonel. The oldest mouse, he always has plans to try and cause massive trouble for Don.

Ballu - The massive bulldog who lives next door.Ballu has a mean temper and a meaner bark, but the worst is his bite. Don is afraid of him, as a Colonel, though they might not show it.
