What distinguished Goofy from those sitting around him was not so much his appearance but his raucous laugh. That laugh, supplied by Disney storyman, musician, and former circus clown, Pinto Colvig, created such an impression on Walt Disney and his staff that the character soon began to be featured in other cartoons.
This new character was first given a name, Dippy Dawg, in the newspaper comic strips. Goofy was created as a human character, as opposed to Pluto, so he walked upright and had a speaking voice first supplied by Colvig, and later by George Johnson, Bob Jackman, and Bill Farmer.
There were 49 Goofy cartoons primarily in the s and s , but he also appeared in many cartoons with Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. In the s, he appeared in several cartoons as Mr. Geef, with a wife and son. The s television series, Goof Troop , reintroduced Goofy and son, but by this time the son was Max, quite different from his earlier incarnation, and the wife was no longer on the scene.
After a gap of many years, a new Goofy cartoon, How to Hook up Your Home Theater , was made in during his 75 th anniversary. Goofy and Wilbur 2. Baggage Buster 4. The Art of Skiing 5. Goofy, overjoyed to be near his son again, recovers a bit and even gets a date with the college librarian.
But Max is frustrated because he is less popular and worse at skateboarding than his father, so he tells Goofy off. This crushes Goofy; Max is everything to him. Goofy falls back into depression, stands up his new girlfriend and fails an important exam. A lot of people were on the internet in ; they had blogs and message boards. The decision to tell a story about a depressed, grieving Goofy cannot have been unintentional.
I want to listen to an interview of the writer who decided to give the classic disney character goofy a dead wife. Farmer manages to weep convincingly, conveying the grief of a family man who has lost his family, alone in an empty house with nothing but the ghosts of his past to keep him company. But still in character. Or maybe the fan theories are true and this was the plan all along: Goofy has canonically lived a life of tragedy, regret, and pain.
But what can we do with this information? Probably not. However, the Goofy movies are very weird relics of semi-forgotten s pop culture, and are worth checking out. Goofy needs help to process his trauma and, after getting that help, one day, he may finally be ready to speak. Maybe not to his fans, but at least to his son.

In 'The Goof Troop' his wife had disappeared and his son was now Max. Goofy is also quite well known for his "How To….. Goofy is also often seen on Disney's House of Mouse The lovable Goofy is now very well known for his wild antics at the Disney theme parks, and for his famous restaurant Goofy's Kitchen at the Disneyland Resort.
Goofy will also co-star in the children's television serious 'Disney's Mickey Mouse Clubhouse' due to begin in Chi, the reason why Goofy can walk and talk and Pluto can't is because he's an anthropomorphic dog, and Pluto isn't.
Kind of like how Pete's a big cat but there are also pet cats in the show. Pluto being a dog cannot speak but goofy can because he is anthromorphic meaning human and dog like. Overall I refuse to believe that goofy is anything other than a dog. He's a type of a freakin' dog.
Clearly a social experiment to see if anyone has any critical thinking skills anymore, and if they just swallow what ever they read! And you wonder why there's so much fake news! Do you have nothing better to do with your time? Group he's always been a dog turn off cuz you're bored is a cow? Go back to Mama's basement. Goofy is a funny-animal cartoon character created in at Walt Disney Productions.
Goofy is a tall, anthropomorphic dog with a Southern drawl, and typically wears a turtle neck and vest, with pants, shoes, white gloves, and a tall hat originally designed as a rumpled fedora.
If Goofy is a cow, why, why would they have originally named him Dippity Dawg. Does "Dawg" mean cow. I thought it was another way of writting the word Dog. Also, why does Goofy have a long snout, whiskers on the tip like a dog and long droppy ears. To me he has always looked like a dog, no resemblance to a cow at all. Someone posted this article on Facebook and brought me here, just to quell the heated comments the author wrote in the comments 5 years ago that this was a satirical piece of FICTION for an experiment.
Don't take this article seriously. This page is one of the first to come up when googling "is goofy a dog". Which is pretty scary really as people i know try to use this to claim goofy is a cow. Which is utterly ridiculous. If anything goofy would be a bull and as such would have horns like a bull. He also wouldn't have dog whiskers, long droopy dog ears, or a dog nose. So conspiracy this is not. Ambiguity there is not. Stop spreading mis-truths. Goofy is a dog. Y'all can't tell me nothin' about goofy.
How does he have a dogs nose if he's a cow?! Passionate about disney over here and I'm not afraid to take somebody down for talking some bs about goofy being a cow. Mickey and Mini, Donald and Daisy both follow this pattern. So why would the writers at Disney have Goofy and Clarabelle coupled up? A cat and a rabbit. Goofys original name was dippy dawg. Which makes him a "dawg" lol and he doesn't have flaring nostrils he has a small nose that looks wet.
Just like a dog. Dogs and cows have always had a close relationship. Goofy is an anthropomorphic dog. Pluto is a regular dog. Animators are creative and play with perspective. This is not complicated. This is stupid. He has buck teeth and a big nose, because it's funny. He's paired with Clarabelle occaisonaly because of the ambiguousness of his species. Although Clarabelle is more often paired with Horace Horsecollar.
