Yabba-Doo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yabba-Doo is a fictional cartoon dog created by Hanna-Barbera Productions as a character for their Scooby-Doo spin-off Scrappy and Yabba-Doo. Yabba, Scooby-Doo's brother, is a white Great Dane, shown to be more courageous than his cowardly sibling. His adventures take place out west, where he fights crime with his master, a bumbling deputy named Dusty, and his enthusiastic nephew Scrappy-Doo. In the series finale of the show he was kiddnaped by the dognapeer from an episode of Scooby-Doo Where Are You. He was never seen again after this and his location was never revealed.

Scrappy and Yabba-Doo aired as a backup segment of The Scooby-Doo/Scrappy-Doo/Puppy Hour from 1982 until 1983.

Yabba, re-named 'Boss Dogg' for copyright reasons, also appeared as one of the main villains in the Doctor Who BBC Novel The Crooked World by Steve Lyons.
