Barnaby B. Beagle

A goofy layabout with a love for jokes, the 8 foot tall Barnaby B. Beagle is Welcome Home’s funniest neighbor. Always ready with a joke on hand or even a silly observation, this big blue beagle always knows how to have fun, much to the dismay of some of the grumpier residents. Barnaby was the jokester of the Neighborhood. He was quick-witted, extroverted, and kind, and would socialize regularly with Wally and Howdy, particularly to crack jokes. His jokes were light-hearted and punny, and not at the expense of others. Barnaby was Wally's best friend. They were often depicted hanging out together in official media from the series and shared similar characteristics. Barnaby is also mentioned in Wally's character description from the website. Barnaby was very polite with Wally and spent much time with him. He know's that wally may creep people out with his emotionless eyes and forever smile, but he's happy to help his friend. After all Wally doesn't know or understand a lot of things, like sleeping or anything that isn't painting. Barnaby particularly enjoyed getting hotdogs from Howdy's store with Wally, in part because Wally would always give Barnaby the hotdog he had ordered. Wally usually gave his food or beverages to Barnaby so he could eat and drink them instead. Barnaby taught Wally much of what he knows of life and emotions and seemed to trust and admire Barnaby in turn, listening attentively to his words. Barnaby shared his jokes with Wally, and reserved for him his more benign jokes. Barnaby's presence was often tied to Wally as well, searching for or talking to him. If they were together with other Neighbors, Barnaby was often the one talking. Despite this, he encouraged Wally to chat with or tell jokes to the Neighbors, putting in a good word for Wally at the same time. Barnaby was also pretty affectionate and playful with Wally. He liked to softly bite Wally and slobber on him occasionally, even fitting Wally's entire head in his mouth. If Barnaby's antics warped the shape of Wally’s pompadour hairstyle, Barnaby would gently push back into shape, or lick his own palm and then smooth Wally’s hair out jokingly. Barnaby was sensitive to Wally's emotions, and was able to tell when Wally was downtrodden, even through a smile. Barnaby is also the only character apart from Home who clearly noticed Wally spacing out and being unresponsive during one of the Dialogue Videos hidden around the website, expressing concern for him and attempting to lightly shake him back into his present space. Barnaby is the only character to make direct contact with Wally in this state. Wally enunciates each "ha" when he laughs. Barnaby taught Wally how to laugh, explaining that to laugh someone needs to say the words 'Ha ha ha' specifically, and that's why Wally just repeats the words unemotionally when trying to laugh.Wally can't scream either, only uttering a monotonous "A". Wally is the shortest neighbor in Welcome Home, at around 3-feet tall. Barnaby doesn't mind the fact that Wally eats with his eyes, just by staring at something and this something suddenly disappearing or having bite marks on it. He sometimes blinks to take a bite, but not always. When drinking, he would still use his eyes to slowly consume the drink as it disappears from its container. He sometimes would make the action of sipping so it seems like he is using his mouth instead. Wally loves to just look at apples, and candy apples. Wally loves candy apples, but he just holds them at arms length away from himself and straight in front of him like how someone holds a torch. He walks around like that until someone else takes them away from him. Nobody's sure why. Wally thinks that he is very handsome, and he would be flattered to know others think so too. He likes looking in the mirror because he likes his face Wally likes to hold everyone’s hand so he don’t get lost. If Wally were to fall on the ground, he will stay there until somebody helps him up. Wally likes books, but he prefers when someone else reads for him. Wally sometimes asked to be held, but it usually already happened casually due to his short stature. Wally sleeps by saying out loud "I'm sleeping, I'm sleeping, I'm sleeping..." He actually rarely can fall asleep because he doesn't understand it, and it is unknown if he dreams at all. Wally is 3 feet tall with an average build, yellow fleece skin, and blue hair styled into a tall, spiraled pompadour. He is most often depicted wearing a blue cardigan with yellow bordering and buttons, a white undershirt, a red necktie, vertically striped rainbow pants, and white-and-blue dress shoes with hearts on their soles. He has droopy eyes and a cat-like mouth with no teeth. He has no nose or eyebrows. Wally is blunt and direct about things, but at the same time polite, always having a soft and sweet cat-like smile on his face. Wally doesn't understand emotions, and is learning about them slowly with the help of Barnaby and the viewers. He also only knows four animals, cat's, dogs, birds, and bugs. Wally doesn't know any swear words despite being 26.
