This article is about the Disney character. For
other uses, see Goofy (disambiguation).

Goofy is a cartoon character created by The


Walt Disney Company. He is a tall,
anthropomorphic dog[3] who typically wears a
turtle neck and vest, with pants, shoes, white
gloves, and a tall hat originally designed as a
rumpled fedora. Goofy is a close friend of
Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, and Max
Goof's father. He is normally characterized as
hopelessly clumsy and dim-witted, yet this
interpretation is not always definitive;
occasionally, Goofy is shown as intuitive and
clever, albeit in his own unique, eccentric way.

Goofy debuted in animated cartoons, starting


in 1932 with Mickey's Revue as Dippy Dawg,
who is older than Goofy would come to be.
Later the same year, he was re-imagined as a
younger character, now called Goofy, in the
short The Whoopee Party. During the 1930s,
he was used extensively as part of a comedy
trio with Mickey and Donald. Starting in 1939,
Goofy was given his own series of shorts that
were popular in the 1940s and early 1950s.
Two Goofy shorts were nominated for an
Oscar: How to Play Football (1944) and
Aquamania (1961). He also co-starred in a
short series with Donald, including Polar
Trappers (1938), where they first appeared
without Mickey Mouse. Three more Goofy
shorts were produced in the 1960s after which
Goofy was only seen in television and Disney
comics. He returned to theatrical animation in
1983 with Mickey's Christmas Carol. His most
recent theatrical appearance was How to Hook
Up Your Home Theater in 2007. Goofy has also
been featured in television, most extensively in
Goof Troop (1992), House of Mouse (2001–
2003), Mickey Mouse Clubhouse (2006–2016),
Mickey Mouse (2013–2019), and Mickey and
the Roadster Racers / Mickey Mouse Mixed-Up
Adventures (2017–2021).

Originally known as Dippy Dawg, the character


is more commonly known simply as "Goofy", a
name used in his short film series. In his 1950s
cartoons, he usually played a character called
George G. Geef. Sources from the Goof Troop
continuity give the character's full name as G.
G. "Goofy" Goof,[4][5] likely in reference to the
1950s name. In many other sources, both
animated and comics, the surname Goof
continues to be used. In other 2000s-era
comics, the character's full name has
occasionally been given as Goofus D. Dawg.
