* In one story arc, a criminal steals Dilbert's identity, depriving him of his home and his job, leaving him with only Dogbert. Dilbert momentarily thinks that even Dogbert has abandoned him, but then Dogbert tracks down the culprit to force him to give back what he stole from Dilbert. As Adams notes in his commentary for "Seven Years of Highly Defective People," Dogbert will always be there for Dilbert.
