Today is Pluto's 81st Birthday, so join us in a picture tribute to Mickey's faithful pal.

Pluto originally appeared as a blood hound in 1930 in a short cartoon, and went on to become Minnie's pet "Rover", before finally taking residence with Mickey Mouse in 1931.

Pluto has a girlfriend by the name of Dinah the Dachshund, and has a dislike for chipmunks following one disastrous encounter at Christmas!


Always by Mickey's side, a faithful friend and companion, Pluto is truly a Mouse's best friend.
