    Is that Spip? Cute little Spip! Thank you! <3

    Hey, unlike Tintin’s Snowy, but is he like Franka’s little dog who just sort of tags along, like Dr Watson to Sherlock Holmes? :P

      Yes! It´s Spip “le gourmet de la noisette” :) His name is inverted to “Pips” in the german translation btw. He is often grumpy in a cute way and mostly annoyed of Spirou´s adventures but also saves him by biting some gangster ass when necessary. He very much faded into the background after Marsupilami joined the team though. So much that Franquin admitted he sometimes almost forgot about him. Sad squirrel noises
