Hesitated asking this, but on the opening screen, it looks like a dog to me, but sounds like a cat?

I cannot continue until this is answered. runningdog confused

It's obviously a dog. that turns around when it hears the cat on the record player. From the expression on the dog's face, it's also obvious that it wishes it was a cat, too. Not only because cats are better than dogs, but because it's jealous of the huge recording contract the cat obviously has.

I've obviously overused the word obvious.

I always took it to be a send-up of the old RCA logo that had a dog ("Little Nipper") sitting beside an original bell-horned, wind-up phonograph, and listening intently. The slogan below read "His Master's Voice". When I first started flying OFF, it was amusing, but soon became tedious. One can only laugh at the same joke so many times. I had hoped that WOFF would move on to something new, but the Dev's decided to double-down.


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But in practice, there is.

You can remove it if you like. Personally I have replaced the new dog with the old OFF dog.

Hauksbee, that would be like replacing the KFC colonel with...I don't know...Justin Bieber, or maybe Johnny Depp (he's from Kentucky, at least). The dog is part of OBD, and I expect will remain so...and should. But I understand your point and don't disagree with it.
