Three dogs named "Mutt" in the Fall 1984 issue of Muppet Magazine. The first on the left is named "Jim" in The Muppets Take Manhattan, the second is Rufus, and the third has only been identified as "Mutt" in this appearance. (Also pictured: Rocky, the cat.)
Mutt is a dog who appeared on The Muppet Show as early as season two. He appeared with Julie Andrews and others in "The Lonely Goatherd" in episode 217, then later with some other dogs and Loretta Lynn in episode 308 where they sang "Oh, Lonesome Me" as well as episode 517.
He also appeared in Country Music with the Muppets, providing a running gag in which he constantly has a question for Rowlf the Dog, which gets answered in the form of a musical clip.
