) is an evil chameleon
in a molecular transformation suit, which allows him to shapeshift into virtually any disguise or inanimate object. In "Doom-mates," his name is pronounced "The Cham-e-leon." He wants to get revenge on Kitty Katswell in "Doom-mates." He talks like Peter Lorre
and eats any bug he sees, a trait used against him several times. His relationship with D.O.O.M. seems rather strained, since he tends to work separately from the others and once planned for them and T.U.F.F. to destroy each other. He said he wanted to go to D.O.O.M.'s weekly ice cream socials, but he's never invited. As a running gag, he often tries to wear a pair of special glasses or goggles, only to have his eyes go around or through them. He can sometimes be very random when disguised. (i.e. In "Internal Affairs," he tells the soldiers semper fi and to remember the Alamo.) Oddly, whenever the story has him needing to use a disguise for a long time as a major plot point, his voice is never disguised, despite him being able to disguise it during the short disguises in other episodes. Another oddity is that Dudley can never tell when or what the Chameleon is diguised, despite the dog having the sensitive nose of a bloodhound.
) is an evil bird genius who can't fly with his wings. He has an assistant named Zippy who claims he can fly if he just believes he can. He claims to be a Blue-bottomed Booby
, and he's the most competent villain. Bird Brain seems to be quite intelligent and capable of his job. Like Snaptrap, he is very easily frustrated with his foolish assistants.
) is Bird Brain's scatterbrained hummingbird
sidekick, who constantly encourages him to fly, despite the fact that his species is incapable of it.
and Daran Norris
) are Bird Brain's more recent henchmen. They are both very incompetent, often infuriating their boss by saying, "Who?" and "Where?," respectively, to which Zippy occasionally adds "Why?" Bat is suggested to be blind, although he occasionally does his job exactly as told, implying that he has some vision and he is apparently slightly smarter than Owl. Bird Brain seems to like Bat more, cause at one point in "Thunder Dog," Bat did his job exactly as he was told without saying his usual "Where?," surprising Bird Brain while Owl idiotically said his usual "Who?," who Bird Brain threatened with a boulder.
) is a former elite T.U.F.F. agent and Kitty's former partner who is a parody of James Bond
, he had turned evil, attempting to drain secret agents' brains and sell their secrets to villains. Greedy, clever, arrogant, and dishonest, Jack attempted to lure Kitty into a trap so he could steal her information (mostly to get money from Snaptrap), but was defeated by Dudley and Keswick. Judging by a line from Kitty in his only episode, she and Jack were supposedly a couple once. He and Snaptrap are arrested, thanks to Dudley and Keswick.
) is a super-intelligent toaster
created by Keswick. She starts out good by stopping Snaptrap and the Chameleon, but when Keswick attempts to unplug her since T.U.F.F. is eco-friendly, R.I.T.A. turned evil and attempted to take over the city, only for Dudley to make her to fall to her doom on a cliff and into a lake.
Crazy Horse
Crazy Horse is an equine who is a bad guy and uses chainsaws which is why they call him Crazy Horse (he evens whinnies while using chainsaws). He tried to escape prison but he got arrested thanks to Kitty. He bunks with snaptrap.
and Dave Boat
) are evil rabbit
siblings who dress up as vegetables and cheat in events by eliminating and kidnapping the competition. Snowflake is the mastermind of the two, while Slush posseses little to no intelligence, who in his sister's words is "dumber than a box of hair" (she should know, she used to skate with one, and claims it was smarter than him). Despite his immense stupidity, he is very competent with Snowflake's plan and when it is ruined, he is shown to be just as angry at the failure and desperate to escape as Snowflake is.
said that he created the central character and wanted to make a crime-fighting show based on him. Because his previous animated series Danny Phantom
already involved superheroes, and The Fairly OddParents
s humoristic, Hartman decided that he would focus on making Dudley a secret agent. He pitched the series to Nickelodeon as "Get Smart
with a dog."
Eric Bauza
, who voices Leather Teddy, and Foop on The Fairly OddParents
was originally chosen to the voice of Dudley Puppy, but the creators didn't feel that he was right for the character.

. Keswick's DNA analyzation shows that Dudley is the "perfect mix of every breed of dog known to man." Since each breed of dog has a special trait, (Bloodhound's sensitive nose, Greyhound's speed, German Shepherd's bravery and a "splash" of Billy Goat which cannot be explained, even by Keswick) Dudley's overall "natural" skills makes him a formidable agent. Dudley is also quite gluttonous and childish which often is displayed by his lack of self control whenever he's hungry. However, despite his eccentric personality; his bravery and natural skills are an asset to T.U.F.F. in times of need. His catchphrase is "Hi gee gee," and he often speaks it whenever he's ready to jet out of the area. In "Thunder Dog," he's shown to be afraid of thunder, but quickly overcomes it with Kitty's help. However, it is also revealed he's afraid of the dentistDentistA dentist, also known as a 'dental surgeon', is a doctor that specializes in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases and conditions of the oral cavity.

. It's rumored by most fans that he has a crush on Kitty. In "Snap Dad," it's revealed that Dudley's mother is still dating which has fans wondering where Dudley's father is.

) - is T.U.F.F.'s number one agent and is Dudley's partner and best friend. Skilled in various fighting styles and use of firearms, short tempered, and easily startled, this feline is a force to be reckoned with. Not much is known about her past yet; but a few episodes mention that her birthdays as a child have been horrendous, and she spent eight years in Secret Agent College. Being a cat, she naturally fights with Dudley on various occasions; usually in kiddish slap fights as if they were siblings. However, as the episodes progressed, she warms up more and more to Dudley as he presents his courage, skill, and respect for her and T.U.F.F. and they later become heartfelt friends. She often wears a black spy suit over her white turtle neck, white boots, a white hairband, and white gloves-although she has been seen in other various disguises. In "Forget Me Mutt," it reveals that she has a crush on a Water Delivery Guy.

His relationship with D.O.O.M. seems rather strained, since he tends to work separately from the others and once planned for them and T.U.F.F. to destroy each other. He said he wanted to go to D.O.O.M.'s weekly ice cream socials, but he's never invited. As a running gag, he often tries to wear a pair of special glasses or goggles, only to have his eyes go around or through them. He can sometimes be very random when disguised. (i.e. In "Internal Affairs," he tells the soldiers semper fi and to remember the Alamo.) Oddly, whenever the story has him needing to use a disguise for a long time as a major plot point, his voice is never disguised, despite him being able to disguise it during the short disguises in other episodes. Another oddity is that Dudley can never tell when or what the Chameleon is diguised, despite the dog having the sensitive nose of a bloodhound.
