-> Voiced by: Billy Bob Thornton (Dad), Jane Krakowski (Mom)

* JerkassToOne: The majority of the time, he is an unbearable asshole to Cat. The occasions where he doesn't insult or act rude to [=CatDog=] can be counted on one hand.

* {{Jerkass}}: The majority of the time, he is an unbearable asshole, mostly to Cat. The occasions where he doesn't insult or act rude to [=CatDog=] can be counted on one hand.

* GoldTooth: Which signals to Dog that he's [[spoiler:the Paperboy all grown up]].

%%* {{Nerd}}s

* SitcomArchNemesis: To Cat but .

* BlackBeadEyes: Like Winslow, Shriek has these. Lube had these as well, but in the first episode "Dog Gone", [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness as well as more hair combed at the front.]]

* NiceHat: She wears a big hat with a feather in it, though she sometimes goes bareheaded.

* NiceHat: In keeping with his "Cowboy" theme.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Played with. Deep down, he seems to cares about [=CatDog=]. In "All You Need Is Lube", he even schemes to help [=CatDog=] escape from [[IOweYouMyLife an overly grateful Lube's]] asphyxiating grip even though it could be because he also wanted him out of the way, and in "[=CatDog=] Doesn't Live Here Anymore", he starts mourning over [=CatDog=]'s absence after a while even though it was because he was missing them as punching bags.
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: His chances at redemption in "The Great Parent Mystery" all end up wasted by him continuing to be a douche to [=CatDog=]. He frequently looks like he's going to help them out on their journey only to insult them or make their predicaments even worse.
* LaserGuidedKarma: On occasion, he gets his just deserts for being a prick to [=CatDog=], like when they agree to wrestle him for making fun of their predicament in "Brothers' Day" or when they chase him for ditching them during their battle with the Greasers in "Siege on Fort [=CatDog=]".

* SitcomArchNemesis: To Cat.

* WickedWeasel: Averted with Dunglap, who is one of the nicest characters on the show.

* BigfootSasquatchAndYeti:[[spoiler: Their mom looks like some kind of sasquatch-creature--we never find out what she really is and not even her husband appears to know.]]
* CatchPhrase: Dog got his from their Mom.
* DeadpanSnarker: The dad, which is where Cat gets it. Seeing his father make the same sarcastic remark he makes is what ultimately leads Cat to accept that these two are indeed his parents.
* GenkiGirl: The mom, which is where Dog gets it. They bond almost instantly.

* InterspeciesAdoption: [[spoiler:They adopted [=CatDog=] when the two of them were just babies.]]

* ThisLoserIsYou: He's often considered the loser of the conjoined duo.

* BerserkButton: Let's just say that stealing his bones from his bone cellar is a suicidal idea and leave it at that.

* HappilyMarried: They are clearly happy together.

* InterspeciesRomance: [[spoiler:Their dad's a frog while their mom appears to be some kind of sasquatch-creature.]]

* RealMenWearPink: Cliff [[spoiler: takes ballet]]. He's not only really good at it, but he's also really ''proud'' of it.

* TrueCompanions: [[DependingOnTheWriter Several episodes]] show them to be this. They may be rather nasty bullies, but they stick together.

* KarmicButtMonkey: About half of his suffering are due to a result of him catching a good dose of karma whenever his selfishness and greed comes back to bite him.
