The voice actor for Disney’s iconic Goofy has revealed that, contrary to popular belief, Goofy is not actually a dog.
Goofy, one of Mickey Mouse’s closest friends, is instantly recognizable by his trademark turtleneck, vest, white gloves, and quirky hat.
For nearly 100 years, many have mistakenly believed Goofy is a dog — but someone intimately familiar with the character has recently debunked this misconception.
The character initially appeared as an older version named Dippy Dawg in the 1932 animated short Mickey’s Revue.
Goofy received his official name in the 1939 film Goofy and Wilbur and has since appeared in numerous films and TV shows, including A Goofy Movie and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.
