Perrito's Former Owners are minor antagonists in DreamWorks' 43rd full-length animated film Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, a spin-off of the Shrek franchise.
They were the family that previously owned Perrito before he resided at Mama Luna's house. Though he was gleefully ignorant of the fact, they were abusive towards Perrito, and had tried to abandon him on numerous occasions. At one point, they had decided to trap him in a sock, and toss the sock over a bridge into a river in the hopes that he drowns. However, Perrito escapes from the sock, and has been lost since.
Biography[]
Background[]
Some time before the events of the movie, Perrito used to belong to an unknown family, along with his littermates. During his stay, he has acted an apparent nuisance to them, causing them to constantly try to get rid of him; which involved them putting him in a packing crate, a dumpster, and possibly some other different places. However, Perrito would always interpret their actions as a game of hide and seek.
So one day, the family gets so fed up with him that they trap him in a sock with a rock inside, hoping to drown him. However, Perrito gnaws his way out of the sock and manages to escape, later growing large enough to convert the sock into a sweater.
Perrito fortunately survived the abysmal abuse and homicide attempt and managed to prevail through this tough time, by finding a perfect family, whom are Puss and Kitty.
Trivia[]
- Perrito described them as "pranksters", and characterized their attempts to be rid of him as playing hide-and-seek, with him always being it. Being the optimistic dog he was, he reasoned that he had pranked them back, gaining a sweater (the sock) and a great story to tell.
- When he told the story about his former owners for a "funny" story, Puss and Kitty were both horrified about his former owners attempting to drown him.
Mention of Perrito's Parents[]
| “ | Kitty Softpaws: Why are you so ridiculous, dog? What's your story? Perrito: My story? Oh, it's actually a very funny story. [laughs] Back when I was a pup, me and my litter mates lived with a family. A family full of pranksters who liked to play hide-and-seek, and I was always "it". Pick on the little guy, am I right? They tried putting me in a packing crate, a dumpster. No matter how hard they tried, I'd always find them. So one day, they get creative and they put me in a sock with a rock in it. [Perrito starts laughing] And then throw me in a river! [Perrito falls over as he was laughing] I gnawed a hole in the sock and I swam to the surface! [Puss and Kitty both look horrified] Perrito: Never found them or my litter mates, so I guess I'm still "it"! [laughs] Kitty Softpaws: Wow, that is the saddest funny story I've ever heard. |
