Maddie

Maddie is a peppy dog villager in the. She first appeared in and after her appearance in, she remained absent from the series until. Her catchphrase, "yippee," may be derived from "yip," an onomatopoeia for a dog sound.

In, Maddie has the play hobby and will be more frequently seen running around the island, sometimes with other villagers. She may also set up treasure hunts (a timed minigame) with the player.

Appearance
Maddie is a brown dog, whose face and legs go from a dark brown to a lighter brown, ending up with a chalky white muzzle, paws, and tail. Her ears are the opposite: they transition from brown to a darker brown. Maddie also has triangular, black eyes with tan eyelashes, curved tan eyebrows, and a large black nose. She also has a large smile.

Personality
As a peppy villager, Maddie will have the tendency to over-react in conversations about trivial subjects such as appearing in competitions and the chance of her losing. This sometimes triggers her to ask for a certain item of clothing or furniture which she needs to enter a competition. She, like other peppy villagers, will rarely be discouraged from doing anything including the usual hobbies. She will also have a short attention span, which means she will soon forget arguments or tasks given to the player which were not completed.

Trivia

 * When Maddie's e-Reader card is scanned in, she states having an obsession with the internet, something that many peppy villagers mention. This is alluded to in her favorite saying, with "IT" meaning "information technology."
