Pongo

Pongo is a male dalmatian who appears in Kingdom Hearts, having ended up in Traverse Town with his wife Perdita. Prior to the events of Kingdom Hearts, Pongo's world was destroyed. With his wife Perdita, he somehow found his way to Traverse Town (presumably by a Corridor of Darkness). Not everyone else in Pongo's world was so fortunate. Pongo's owners, Roger and Anita (who Pongo affectionally refers to as his "pets"), disappeared with Pongo's world. In addition, the ninety-nine puppies which Pongo and Perdita looked after had been thrown about to other worlds in the chaos. The story of the dalmatians' plight managed to spread very quickly amongst the residents of Traverse Town. Leon was especially concerned about the matter, and brought it to Sora's attention. Throughout his journey, Sora found the dalmatian pups and sent them back to Pongo in Traverse Town. Pongo and Perdita were very grateful, and offered Sora gifts for his journey as more and more dalmatians were returned to them. When Sora sealed Kingdom Hearts Pongo, his wife, and children were returned to their unknown world. Pongo is the ideal father. He is very caring of his wife and pups and in Kingdom Hearts his remorse at losing the latter is very pronounced. He is also very clever, concocting many on-the-spot plans; it was he who found a way to get his owners to meet. He also devised numerous escape plans when his family was being hunted for their fur by the villanous Cruella De Vil.
