Appearances
101 Dalmatians
Dipstick is one of the original fifteen puppies of Pongo and Perdita, along with Lucky, Jewel, Fidget, Two-Tone, Whizzer, and many other pups. His name comes from his tail being half white and half black, resembling a dipstick. One night, he is kidnapped by Jasper and Horace along with his other siblings, and are taken to De Vil Manor for them to be killed to become Cruella's Dalmatian fur coat. When he is trapped inside, he meets eighty-four other dalmatian puppies, also to be made into the coat. Kipper, an Airdale Terrier rescues them, and reunites them with their parents. At the end of the film, Dipstick and his family live in the former De Vil Mansion, now the Dalmatian Plantation.
102 Dalmatians
Three years (2000) after the Dearlys moved to the Dalmatian Plantation (according to the end of the first film in 1997), Dipstick grows up and begins living with his new owner Chloe Simon and his new Dalmatian wife Dottie in a flat in London. Around the time, Cruella was released from prison, he becomes the father of 3 puppies. Domino, Little Dipper (who resembles him the most in looks), and Oddball. After meeting Cruella again at Chloe's office with his puppies, he begins to bark at her to stay away from his puppies, remembering what she almost did to him a few years before. He is very protective of his family whenever Cruella is concerned.
101 Dalmatians: The Series
Dipstick is a minor character and one of the members of Mooch's gang, along with Whizzer and, for a little while, Two-Tone. In the series, he is somewhat dim-witted, and is often dragged into Mooch's plans without a say in the matter. Dipstick was also notable for having a flea problem in one episode, hinting that his character is a combination of him from the movies and Fidget, who doesn't appear in the series. He and Whizzer are best friends.
