Catching up with McGruff

Not That Mike The Other Mike

“It was a good career,” says McGruff, the Retired Crime Dog. “We busted a lot of bad guys, helped a lot of good people. But I’ve seen enough buddy-cop movies to know what happens to the older detective who’s just a year from retirement, so I got out early.”

I’m getting too old for this stuff.

    Let’s see if I can still remember:
    Scruff McGruff
    Chicago, Illinois
    60652

    Edit: it’s been a good 20 years since I’ve heard that jingle, but I got it right. Can’t quite remember Stick Stickley’s address, though.

    This guy needs a cigar.

    He doesn’t need a weapon to stop the bad guys – he just slobbers ’em into submission!

    (adding) does anyone recall actor Pat Hingle? This is 100% the canine version of him.

      OMG yes! I was trying to figure out who he reminded me of.

    Doggy Glover!

    I know McGruff .. Talked with him last month at the National Night Out
    He was talking with our SAR K-9 units. He’s always been a giving guy.

      That’s cool! Looks like retirement agrees with him.

      (adding) – oh, and his tag line – “Help take a BITE out of crime!”
