Another example of pugs in popular culture, the Cartoon Network feature "The Life and Times of Juniper Lee".


Monroe (right), the enchanted dog, and Ray Ray Lee.

"Monroe Connery Boyd Carlyle McGregor Scott Lee V (Monroe for short, voiced by Carlos Alazraqui) is an enchanted dog that speaks with a Scottish accent (a la Shrek). He is quite educated in the world of magic, having been alive for several centuries and assisting each Te Xuan Ze for nearly that entire time. Despite his knowledge, his ability to actually use magic or magical devices is fairly limited, due to his lack of grasping hands or opposable thumbs. Monroe has been magically enhanced, allowing him to be understood by those who can see through the magic barrier. Anyone else listening to him will only hear barking. He is also lactose intolerant."
