Can't be a Canon Foreigner if the works he appears in are the very first iterations of the creation in question - if there had been an original book counterpart to "Fights Coronavirus" or even "Crazy Dream" where he didn't appear, it'd be different (would also be the case if Derek decided to add him into the next cut of "Saves The Kids")


* CanonForeigner: He was created for ''Cool Cat's Crazy Dream'', and became the main villain of the future films. He was even planned to be the main antagonist of ''Cool Cat Stops A School Shooting''.

* ShareTheSickness: Zigzagged -- Dirty Dog apparently has COVID, since he tries to spread it to children by coughing on them. However, he also claims that he is using magic to spread COVID, and that COVID is a scam.

* PokeThePoodle: This being a kid's movie about bullying and gun safety, Butch the Bully's antics are...not very threatening. He laughs maniacally after every major sentence and as he's announcing his plots, says mean things to Cool Cat and Maria over the phone, spray-paints some signs, cyberbullied Cool Cat, literally takes candy from babies, and kicks sand in Cool Cat's face. Even when he finds a gun, his big plan is to use it to steal everyone's lunch money, and he doesn't even follow through with it - he just shows the gun to another kid without even attempting to use it. [[FelonyMisdemeanor And yet he still goes to jail]].

* AnimalJingoism: Averted. Subverted. Cool Cat mentions is enemies with Dirty Dog, but he has no problem with dogs in general (judging by him telling Butch that dogs are his friends. friends), and their antagonistic relationship is due to Dirty Dog being [[{{jerkass}} a total asswipe]] rather than their respective species.

Addressed from forum thread, it's a mighty big stretch to say these are "political" in nature. This is a series for kids and the COVID-related examples are just about basic hygiene, characters can be cartoonishly careless for non-partisan reasons.


* PoliticallyIncorrectHero: In ''Fights Coronavirus'', Cool Cat and his friends (who are girls, incidentally) taunt Dirty Dog for "[[GenderedInsult throwing like a girl]]". He also tells the girls at the end to respect other people's opinions on the coronavirus.



* PoliticallyIncorrectHero: She insults Dirty Dog's aim by calling him a "sissy", a word historically used to demean gay men and gender non-conforming individuals. She also doesn't wear a mask in public.



* PoliticallyIncorrectHero: Apart from the aforementioned "girl" line, she pulls down her mask during the rap scene, even though she acknowledged the dangers of being unmasked moments ago.



* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Dirty Dog tries to throw a water balloon at Cool Cat since (most) cats hate water. He also seems to have a low opinion of pro-maskers calling them "sheep" and refers to the pandemic as a "scam" without so much as a hint of irony or self-awareness. He also randomly calls a black child a "punk kid". On top of that, he's a slaveowner.
