'''Dobie''' is a [[wolf]] in the {{SER}}. He first appeared in {{DnM+}} as a [[lazy]] [[islander]], and after his appearance in {{DnMe+}}, he remained absent from the series until {{NLWa}}, where he returns as a [[cranky]] [[villager]]. His name may come from the {{Wp|Dobermann}}, a breed of dog. Starting from {{NLWa|short|nolink}} onward, Dobie has a general theme that revolves around writing. His {{NLWa|short|nolink}} goal is to be a "writer," and his {{NLWa|short|nolink}} and {{NH|short|nolink}} [[Villager house|houses]] are filled with books, bookshelves, and scattered papers. His {{HHP|short}} house request references that he has writer's block.

Dobie is a gray, murky-colored wolf, erroneously colored a light green in [[Animal Island]]. His muzzle is a little lighter than his fur. He has a round, black nose, and thick eyebrows. His eyes are rarely shown open. When he opens his eyes, they are black with light gray pupils. The insides of his pointy ears are pink and the tips are black. The tip of his tail, paws, and feet are white. His muzzle and face are very wrinkled, and his jaw has several lines going along it, giving the impression that he might be toothless. His facial features give the impression that he is meant to be old, which is further supported by his [[cranky]] personality in {{NL}}.

As a lazy [[islander]], Dobie prefers more independence from others and desires to stay away from the player if not befriended. He is also philosophical, often talking about forgoing worldly pleasures and society. This is akin to [[cranky]] villagers, something that he would inherit in his future appearances.

As an islander, Dobie's [[Villager house|house]] in {{PG|nolink}} will begin with only one [[furniture]] item, along with the {{I|exotic wall|PG}} and {{I|bamboo flooring|PG}}. He will request specific items for the player to give to him, which he will place in his house. After he places two items in his house, he will upgrade his [[wallpaper]], and after he places five items, he will upgrade his [[flooring]]. [[Masa]] requests for the same items as Dobie, although his house has different wallpaper and flooring.

*Dobie's [[villager ID|ID number]] from {{NLWa|short|nolink}} onward has an inconsistency with how villagers are normally ordered. Regarding the order of villagers who appeared in {{DnMe+|nolink}} but not {{WW|short}}, islanders are usually ordered last. However, Dobie is the first wolf villager of this group in order, despite having previously been an islander.
