The dog in Our Gang (also known as The Little Rascals) was Petey, an adorable, clever, and loyal pup who was a central figure in the gang's adventures. Petey, most famously known for his distinctive ""circle"" around his right eye (which made him easily recognizable), was an important and beloved member of the group, often participating in the childrenโs shenanigans.
Petey was more than just a pet; he was like a member of the gang, often helping the kids get out of tricky situations or providing comic relief with his antics. His loyalty to the children, particularly Spanky and Alfalfa, made him an enduring part of the Our Gang legacy.
The dog who played Petey was actually a Bull Terrier named Pal, who was trained to perform various tricks on command. Pal's most famous trick was his ability to interact with the children in a way that made him feel like an integral part of the gangโs fun. Petey's appearances in the series added warmth and humor, making him just as much of a star as the kids themselves.
