Template:Species-infobox Dogs are an uncommon species in the Mario series. Some people keep them as pets, but there are also more intelligent, anthropomorphic dogs. Chain Chomps act very similar to dogs and were even inspired by a real life experience of Shigeru Miyamoto that involved a dog.[1] In the Club Nintendo comic "Rummelplatzquatsch", a pack of dogs urinate at Luigi. In WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$, dogs appear in the microgames Shake!, Go Fer the Tater and Disc O'Dog. In WarioWare: Touched!, Pet Petter microgame features a dog. In WarioWare: Smooth Moves, many dogs were seen entering Club Spice alongside Jimmy P.

Poochy is a helpful, reoccurring dog character in the Yoshi series who first appear in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. He usually serves as a moving platform that charges through enemies and jumps through the air, allowing Yoshi to access higher areas.

In the NES version of Super Mario Bros. 3, the King of Grass Land was transformed into a dog by Larry Koopa, who had done so by stealing the King's Magic Wand. In remakes of the game, he is instead turned into a Cobrat.

In The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode "Sneaky Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas", Prince Hugo the Huge is transformed into a miniature poodle by Bowser. In Life's Ruff, Luigi and King Windbag become dogs, and meet more of them in the Florida State Poochitentiary.

In Wario Land 4, a stray dog is seen barking at the Black Cat in the opening cut-scene.

A new type of ghost dog is seen in the game Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. The playful, yet annoying at times dog called a Polterpup is seen in 3 missions in the game not counting ScareScraper mode. In the Vault description it is revealed Professor E.Gadd or Luigi have not named the dog yet
