About Marmaduke

The big, huggable Great Dane.

Marmaduke is America's most lovable Great Dane. Created by Brad Anderson, the classic comic canine has delighted newspaper readers since 1954. Marmaduke lives with the Winslow family, who, try as they might, just can't seem to get him to obey. Despite his antics, the playful pooch is top dog in the neighborhood and on the comics page, where he has endeared himself to readers in more than 20 countries.

The daily panel also strikes a chord with pet owners, many of whom write to Anderson to comment on Marmaduke as if he were a real dog. Winner of the National Cartoonists Society's 1976 Reuben Award for Best Comic Panel, Anderson has also created more than two dozen Marmaduke books, which have sold more than 10 million copies worldwide.
