The evolution of Wags the Dog (1994 - Present).
Costume 1[]
1994-1997, 1998: The original Wags costume has very dark brown fur, the eyes somewhat resemble snake eyes, and it lacks the letter W on his chest. This costume was made of pieces of furniture and had a slightly protruding belly that would “drag”, as mentioned in his self-titled song.
