Bimbo the Dog - Betty Boop's 1st Boyfriend

History - The Animated Characters

Bimbo the Dog

Bimbo the Dog is a cartoon dog created by Fleischer Studios.

He first appeared in the Out of the Inkwell series and was originally named Fitz. Betty Boop's boyfriend Bimbo the Dog is often confused for her dog, Pudgy.

He later became the star of Fleischer's Talkartoons series, making his first appearance in Hot Dog (1930). He was relegated to a supporting character when his girlfriend, Betty Boop, became a more popular character. The Talkartoons series became the Betty Boop series in 1932.

He appeared in Max Fleischer cartoons from 1930 to 1933, when he was eliminated from Betty's series by the Production Code censorship laws, since a dog with a human girlfriend gave implications of bestiality.

You don't really hear much about Bimbo nowadays as Betty Boop has taken all the limelight, which is fair enough as she is now a world star, loved by all ages!
