You are the main character, and you are on a quest to find the Legendary Flower to cure your sibling. Between your hometown and the numerous villages on The Dog Island, you will meet many dogs and a few other creatures. The dogs are of all different breeds, and many will have a task for you to complete.

Alex

Alex is the stay-at-home Black Labrador, who likes reading books more than anything else. He also assumes that he is the riddle master and will challenge you to four riddles throughout the game. He is Amalia's brother and, in her opinion, is just lazy and too old to be sitting around. Alex also lives next door to Amalia, his house being a giant book.

If you speak to Alex, and you're not supposed to be solving a riddle, he can detect how much health you have; if all your hearts are red, he will say "It's good to see you looking well", whereas if any of your hearts are black he will say that you look sick.

Alice

Alice is Noble's maid, and is a Poodle. She'll help her little princely-paws if he is going to get into trouble, even if it means taking a key from the master without permission.

Alphonso

Alphonso is a Rottweiler and he greets visitors coming from Zoomy Lake.

Amalia

Amalia is the kind Yellow Labrador Retriever who will show you the way to Dr. Potan's clinic and help you get started on your journey. Although she doesn't always get along with her brother, Alex, she'll get along with everyone else just fine. If you are a boy dog, she'll show interest in you and ask you out on a date. If you refuse, she won't speak to you for the rest of the game. She will ask you to make her stew.
