Afghan Hound (Muppet)

Afghan Hound is a blond female Muppet that is based off of the breed with the same name.

Afghan Hound appeared for the first time in episode 214 of The Muppet Show, and was then seen in the background of many other Muppet sketches. During her more prominent appearances, she was performed by Louise Gold. These include episodes 216, 519, and 524. Afghan Hound appeared in the background during the opening theme of Mopatop's Shop and in the background of E-I-E-I-OR on Muppets Tonight.

Her most recent speaking appearance was in The Muppets as one of the Muppets answering phone calls for The Muppets Telethon, but this time performed by Alice Dinnean-Vernon. When Kermit says they are ready to take the calls for pledges, Afghan Hound is seen ordering a pizza on the phone instead (as seen above).
