PersonalityEdit

Dr. Dawson is a bumbler who has a good heart and joins Basil on their hunt to find Hiram, Olivia's father, from the diabolical Professor Ratigan.

Role in the filmEdit

In the film, Dr. David Q. Dawson is a surgeon who returns home to London, England after military service in Afghanistan. After he hops off his carriage, Dawson comes across a little girl mouse named Olivia Flaversham, crying her eyes out about her father Hiram being captured by Fidget the bat, sidekick to the dastardly Professor Ratigan. Feeling very sorry for the young mouse, he escorts her to Baker street as quickly as possible. He is surprised by Basil's strangeness, but soon catches on to his personality.

Other appearancesEdit

House of MouseEdit

Dawson made several cameo appearances in the television series House of Mouse. In the episode "Donald's Lamp Trade", Dawson nearly becomes a victim of Ratigan's mouse trap, but was saved by Basil.

TriviaEdit

• Dr. Dawson used Daffy Duck's catch phrase, "You're despicable!" when he and Basil were tied up in a giant mouse trap by the dastardly Padriac Ratigan.
