==Personality==

Courage has the quality of never giving up. He has a compassionate side, often showing kindness and friendship to the creatures shunned by the rest of society. Courage often gets frightened easily, but that doesn't stop him from saving Muriel and Eustace!

==Childhood==

Main Article: ]

The final episode of the series reveals Courage's origins. He lived with his parents as a pup until an evil veterinarian rocketed his parents to the moon as part of an experiment. Muriel found Courage soon after. This veterinarian later attempted to send Courage to the moon as well, but Courage thwarted him and sent the veterinarian instead. Courage's parents, along with other dogs that the veterinarian had sent to the moon, were shown at the end of the episode, ready to pummel the veterinarian.

==Quotes==

*Courage is recognizable for his scream of terror (often accompanied by exaggerated and grotesque visual images) and his catchphrases:
*"The things I do for love!"
*"Sometihng smells fishy or my name's (something rather unusual). And it's not!"
*"Muriel's in trouble!"
*"I know I'm not gonna like this!"
*"Sometimes a dog's got to do what a dogs got to do and I'm the only dog here!"


==Trivia==

*When Cartoon Network watched the show during season 1, they agreed that Courage "talked too much" and ordered that his English lines were to be reduced. This clearly explains why Courage is mostly silent in seasons 2, 3, and 4. The idea of turning Courage from a talking dog to a dog with few lines caused mixed reactions. Some thought that CN made it look like Courage cannot talk at all as there have been episodes where he is silent.

*Courage has a hole in his tooth, which the show has never shown how he got it. Many fans believe it was from ad hygiene.

*He has been potrayed by ] throughout the entire series.
