Dinah the Dachshund

Dinah the Dachshund

Dinah the Dachshund is a fictional character created by the Walt Disney Company. She appears as Pluto's girlfriend although she sometimes dates Butch the Bulldog as well. She first appeared in "The Sleepwalker".

In an episode titled "Canine Casanova", she appears again with Pluto, who tries to woo her love and get to know her a little more. When she winds up in the dog pound Pluto saves the day, becomes Dinah's hero and the two start dating.

Then in "In Dutch", set in the Netherlands, Pluto falls for Dinah and she becomes very attracted to him. In a lovely scene, Dinah gives Pluto a passionate kiss, which makes him feel great and causes him to want to rush the relationship. Instead, the two of them end up saving the day together when the water of the dam becomes unprotected and it almost engulfs the Netherlands.

In a romantic episode called "Pluto's Heart Throb", Pluto falls for Dinah but is surprised to find out that she has two male dogs that she loves. It becomes obvious that Dinah is interested in Pluto because she loved him more, but Butch the Bulldog will not give her up. Butch demands a kiss from her, then pushes her into a swimming pool. Pluto hears her calls for help and comes to the rescue. When Dinah is saved, she finally makes her decision who she wants to be with, and dumps Butch.

In the final episode, titled "Wonder Dog" Pluto is rejected by Dinah when she sees the poster of a handsome circus pup named Prince. Pluto believes that he can prove to Dinah that he’s better than Prince and challenges Butch to a talent contest. Dinah is so entertained by Pluto that she falls back in love with him. Dinah replaced Fifi the Peke as Pluto's girlfriend in the later Disney cartoons.

Dinah has since appeared in several cartoon shorts featured in the anthology series Mickey MouseWorks, and in the series Disney's House of Mouse, where the cartoon short "Pluto's Arrow Error," reveals that Dinah is Butch the Bulldog's gal and that she obviously has no serious interest in Pluto, which might explain her fickle nature on most other cartoon appearances she's had with Pluto and Butch competing for her affections.
