Delilah

Delilah Dalmatian is a British^[2] female Dalmatian dog and one of the main characters of 101 Dalmatian Street. She is the great-great granddaughter of Pongo and Perdita^[3]. She's married to Doug, and together they have 99 puppies from previous marriages, including Dylan and Dolly.^[4] She is a nurse and can diagnose by scent.^[5]

Personality

Delilah is a warm and loving mother and wife to her children and her husband respectively though she is decisively the firmer parent as Doug tends to be a little too emotional. She places a great amount of trust and expectations in her oldest son and daughter, Dylan and Dolly, to care for their younger siblings while she and Doug are away at their jobs.

A little similar to her son, Dylan, Delilah can be just a little uptight, such as when she took charge of prepping the pups for a snow day and snapping at Dolly for waking her up and upsetting her allergies (not realizing Dolly had only been trying to give Delilah a Mother's Day surprise).

Even so, she is a loving and protective mother, as she stood up for Dolly at the pet spa and they made amends over their misunderstanding.

Physical Appearance

Delilah has white fur with black spots, but much like her son Dylan, one of her ears is black with white spots. She also wears a purple and green collar with a rectangular shape attached to it.

Trivia

• It's revealed that Delilah is the biological mother of Dylan, making it possible she was widowed before marriage and the step-mother of Dolly, despite the latter calling her mom.
• She’s the first non-protagonist dalmatian that is the user of the World Wide Woof.
• The Brazilian Portuguese dub changes her name to Perdita, her great-great grandmother.
