Preston (Wallace & Gromit)



Preston is the main villain of the Wallace and Gromit film, A Close Shave. Preston was a robotic dog created by a scientist to help with his wool factory. After the scientist died, Preston took care of his daughter, Wendolyn, who now own the wool factory and shop. Preston went rogue, however, and made a scheme to turn steal sheep and turn them into his own brand of dog food. He had a huge, diabolical machine that would grind the live sheep to meat and dispense them into cans. When Gromit tried to unveil his plot, Preston framed the other dog for his own thefts. With Gromit in jail, Preston had free range over the clueless Wallace and the nonthreatening Wendolyn. Preston's plan was eventually foiled by a little sheep, who broke Gromit out of jail. Preston was sucked into his own grinding machine while trying to use it on Wallace and Gwendolyn, and was crushed into pieces. He was eventually reassembled into a mindless pet.
