[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/francis01_1927.png]]

Tropes associated with Francis:
* DeadpanSnarker
* FakeBrit: His voice actor, Roscoe Lee Browne, is actually an African-American, born in Newark, New Jersey.

[[WMG: Rita]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Sheryl Lee Ralph

Tropes associated with Rita:
* TheChick
* SassyBlackWoman
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Is noticeably the only female dog in Fagin's gang, and the ''only'' major female character, apart from Jenny and Georgette.

* WomenAreWiser: Notably the only one who voices doubts about [[spoiler:"rescuing" Oliver from Jenny's house]], as well as the only one who notices that [[spoiler:Oliver is unhappy afterwards]].

[[quoteright:200:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fagin1_8185.jpg]]

[[WMG: Fagin]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/DomDeLuise
----
Tropes associated with Fagin:
* AntiVillain: He does thievery and has the dogs do his dirty work, but he does care for them. Plus he's justified in his paranoia his dealings with Sykes and the welfare of the dogs if he gets "sleepin' with the fishes".
* CowardlyLion: He does crimes to escape his possible gangster death punishment from Sykes, but he does try to fight against him once he goes too far.
* TheFagin: An {{expy}} of the TropeNamer only having a heart of gold this time around.
* HomelessPigeonPerson: Except with dogs.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: A difference shared with the film adaptation.
* [[spoiler: SparedByTheAdaptation]]: [[spoiler: His [[Literature/OliverTwist book counterpart]] is sentenced to execution at the novel's end.]]

[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/roscoedesoto1_868.jpg]]

[[WMG: Roscoe and Desoto]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Taurean Blacque (Roscoe) and Carl Weintraub (Desoto)
----
Tropes associated with Roscoe and Desoto:
* ColorCodedCharacters: Roscoe = red, Desoto = blue.
* DarkIsEvil: Is it ever!
* EvilHasABadSenseOfHumor: Hinted at with Roscoe.
* {{Expy}}: Somewhat like the alligators, Brutus and Nero, from ''Disney/TheRescuers'', since there are two of them, and both serve the villain, but are much more witty and sinister.
* FamilyUnfriendlyDeath: [[ShockAndAwe Fried by the third rail.]]
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Anytime they get into a fight with Dodger.
* RedOniBlueOni: Somewhat inverted, since Roscoe, the red-collared doberman, is somewhat cooler than the blue-collared doberman, Desoto.
* ScaryBlackMan: Roscoe - you can hear his African - American accent.
* StalkerWithACrush: Roscoe to Rita.
* [[ThoseTwoBadGuys Those Two Bad Dogs]]
* VileVillainSaccharineShow: While the main dogs can scare off the rabid dogs that showed up in the opening song, they face these two with disgust. Besides being dogs for a gangster affiliate, Desoto is implied to be a kitten killer, even more disturbing implications is that they're both [[spoiler: [[ImAHumanitarian man eaters, as Sykes suggest they should eat Jenny if her parents didn't pay the ramson]]]] And worse, Sykes [[FridgeHorror doesn't seem to be joking]].

[[quoteright:311:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sykes01_5749.jpg]]

[[WMG: Bill Sykes]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Robert Loggia
----
Tropes associated with Sykes:
* AxCrazy: At one point.
* BadassFingersnap: Its his attack dogs' cue to attack.
* BadBoss: To Fagin and possibly to any gang affiliates
* BigBad
* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: When he sees the "Pizza Delivery Boy" (actually Francis and the gang) at his door, he immediately arms himself with a pistol, realizing that the person was not likely to be a pizza delivery person as he doesn't remember ever ordering a pizza that day.
* FatBastard
* GoodSmokingEvilSmoking: Very evil as he smokes is Fagin's face while crushing his neck with his window
* [[spoiler: [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath Family Unfriendly]] KarmicDeath]]: [[spoiler: Ultimately hit by a subway train in the end.]]
* LoanShark: His job is this, and he'll get money no matter what the cost
* RightHandAttackDog: Two for the price of one! (See above.)
* VillainousBreakdown: While he's mainly calm throughout the movie, in the climactic car chase, he pulls down the gear stick so hard it ''breaks off'' and ''punches his hand through his car's window'' to get at Jenny.
* VileVillainSaccharineShow: Especially for Disney. Sykes has no sorcery, [[LargeHam hamminess]] or even a VillainSong; he is a cold-blooded LoanShark played totally straight. His methods are brutal as he holds Jenny for ransom, has Fagin in a loan deal with the implications of mafia execution and even tells one of his affiliates how to do the cement shoe method.

[[quoteright:296:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jenny1_618.jpg]]

[[WMG: Jenny Foxworth]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Natalie Gregory

* {{Expy}}: Of Penny from ''Disney/TheRescuers''.
* InnocentBlueEyes
* LonelyRichKid
* RedheadedHero
* SpoiledSweet: To a certain extent.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: She appears to have only eight candles on her birthday cake. At the ''end'' of the film, no less. However, some have argued that she looks older than eight or seven.
----

[[WMG: Winston]]
->'''Voiced by:''' William Glover
----
Tropes associated with Winston:
* CoolOldGuy: He's apparently a fan of pro wrestling.
* DeadpanSnarker
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Sure, he's a bit of a snob but it's clear he does care about Jenny, and he eventually warms to Fagin and his gang too.
* RollingPinOfDoom: Uses it as an ImprovisedWeapon when he goes to inspect the noise coming from Georgette's room.
----
[[quoteright:291:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/georgette1_8334.jpg]]

[[WMG: Georgette]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Bette Midler
----
Tropes associated with Georgette:
* AntiHero: She is extremely jealous of Oliver when Jenny first gets him, and tries to get rid of him after that. Despite this, she ''does'' help Oliver and the gang [[spoiler: rescue Jenny from Sykes's clutches]] and appears to have...''slightly'' lightened up by the end.
* ArentYouGoingToRavishMe: When it becomes clear Dodger didn't break into her room for sex.
* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Averted. She's usually groomed and pretty, but in certain situations she looks worse for wear.
* [[ChickMagnet Dude Magnet]]
* GreenEyedMonster: Towards Oliver for much of the movie.
* HelloNurse: Most male dogs absolutely love her.
* IBrokeANail
* InformedAttractiveness: She's not too different in design to Rita, but is implied to be an unrivalled beauty.
* ItsAllAboutMe: She gets a little better though.
* LargeHam: Nearly every line is a slice of pure pork, as you would expect from her voice actress.
* LovableAlphaBitch: She does have a heart, especially towards the end.
* ReallyGetsAround: Just check out her shrine to her admirers! Even [[Disney/TheGreatMouseDetective Rat]][[InterspeciesRomance igan]] appears in there.
* RichBitch: A ''literal'' example!
* ShrineToSelf: Her room is not only stuffed with photographs and paintings of her and many, MANY mirrors, but statues of her make up most of her bed, flank her vanity table, and even her dog bowl has a few miniature Georgettes on it.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: It is unclear whether her fur was dyed blue, [[AmazingTechnicolorWildlife naturally blue]], or intended as gray via HairColorDissonance.
