[edit] Rodney's profile

Andy Johnson's pet and best friend, Rodney is the character that is the most active with his ideas. His childish antics add humor and personality to the series.

He often slacks off while Andy does all the work and is frequently annoying Mr. Johnson, Andy's father. At one point, Rodney saved his life, by accidentally landing on him, therefore releasing a cheese log that Mr. Johnson choked on; however, Mr. Johnson still disliked him. He is in love with a yellow female squirrel named Darlene (girlfriend) and has a cousin named Eddie (flying squirrel). Rodney usually sleeps in a cardboard box next to Andy's bed. He was a replacement coach for a Little League team called "The Fighting Worms" that used to be coached by Mr. Johnson. He is the leader of The Rod Squad. He has a craving for Sticky Buns and almost risked his life to get some. He and Andy's favorite cereal is Puffy Pirate Shirt Puffs.
