Doggie Kruger

An alien from the Planet Anubis, he's a member of the Shep-Tribe and the much decorated commander of Earth's S.P.D. unit. He was a legend in his day as a Dekaranger, earning his other nickname, Hell's Guard Dog (地獄の番犬 Jigoku no Banken).

Doggie is a tough leader and being honorable, he will do anything to save the ones he cares about. He seems to have feelings for his assistant Cignian Swan Shiratori, panicking whenever he hears that Swan has an admirer. He also occasionally assists the Dekarangers as DekaMaster, wielding the powerful D-Sword Vega. His fighting style is the Galaxy Single Sword Style (銀河一刀流 Ginga Ittoryu), chosen by his Sensei to learn the style's secret technique, Vega Impulse. His number is 100.

Before becoming the commander of the S.P.D. branch on Earth, he was one of the regular customers of Dino House during his early days on Earth.

After becoming commander, he took in a young Marika Reimon, and raised her as his daughter.

It was revealed in Dekaranger vs. Abaranger that Doggie suffers from a backbone problem which causes him to miss once every 2,000 attacks, which was cured by Yukito Sanjo (AbareBlue). Incidentally, Doggie is friends with Ryunosuke Sugishita, the owner of the Dino House restaurant and friend of the Abarangers, who in turn, was friends with Miyuki Ozu, the mother of the five Ozu siblings. After preventing Ginjifuan Kazak from attempting to resurrect Wicked Life God Dezumozorlya a second time, he assisted both teams as DekaMaster during the final battle.

After Marika Reimon encountered Captain Marvelous and the Gokaigers, she contacted Doggie who intercepted and confronted Marvelous. When Marvelous kicked the Master License out of his hand, and Doggie drew out D-Sword Vega to engage him, Marvelous fought him off, even with handcuffs still on.

Before Kruger brought Captain Marvelous in, they accidentally stumbled into a Zangyack scheme overseen by the Alienizer Buramudo to launch Subterranean Missiles to destroy every city on Earth in two hours. When their presence was discovered, Kruger was wounded as he managed to get Captain Marvelous out of harm's way. Though Captain Marvelous offered to help him, Kruger refused to trust the pirate as he left him behind to stop the missile launch regardless of his injuries. Realizing how injured his captor was, Captain Marvelous saved the alien from the potential suicide mission and took him to safety. With Captain Marvelous' sense of honor against all odds winning his trust, Kruger uncuffed the pirate and handed him back his Mobilates. Marvelous united with his teammates and destroyed the missile launching device in time before reuniting with his crew. Together, they changed into the Dekarangers and defeated Buramudo.

When Buramudo was enlarged, GokaiOh was formed to stop him from manually launching the one of the Subterranean Missiles, taking out some of the Zangyack fleet in the process. Kruger told the Gokaigers they could now summon the Greater Power of the Dekarangers. Using the Dekaranger Keys, they summon the Pat Striker from within GokaiOh. They were soon able to finish off Buramudo after an intense gunfight. The next morning, the Gokaigers escorted a wounded Kruger when they were cornered by a police barricade. However, Officer Banban Akaza suddenly appears and notified the alleged acts of piracy by the Gokaigers were proven to be a hoax instigated by the Zangyack Empire. The pirates were free to go as he took Kruger, but with a warning not to abuse the powers of the Dekarangers.

Personality: Doggie Kruger is a formidable and dedicated leader, recognized for his unwavering sense of honor and steadfast commitment to protecting those he cares about. His leadership style is marked by a deep sense of responsibility, which drives him to lead the Dekarangers with determination and strength. Despite his serious demeanor, he has a caring heart, and his loyalty inspires respect among his comrades.

Doggie harbors strong feelings for his assistant, Swan Shiratori, becoming flustered and anxious whenever he learns about her admirers. While he typically prefers to take a back seat, he is not afraid to engage in battle as DekaMaster when the situation demands it, wielding his powerful D-Sword Vega with formidable skill.

Though he can be intense and occasionally irritable, these moments are often overshadowed by his courageous spirit and unwavering resolve. Doggie also has a strong sense of justice, as he is willing to put others safety before his own.

Ultimately, Doggie Kruger embodies the traits of an admirable leader—dedicated, fierce, and deeply caring—making him a reliable commander among the Dekarangers.
