Isabelle

Shizue (しずえ) is a dog that is set to appear in. Her name was first revealed as Shizu during the New Leaf developer commentary, then changed in the June 2012 Nintendo Direct. Because she was the first new character to be revealed to players, many people speculated that she is the 'eager secretary' that will assist the player in his/her new role as the town mayor. This was later confirmed when she was shown talking to the player, with the name Hisho (ひしょ), which is Japanese for secretary, during Tokyo Game Show 2011. She is said to be very clumsy and very absent-minded.
