Ripper is a major antagonist who appears in The Secret Life of Pets. He is a aggressive bulldog and is one of the main partners of Snowball. He is a member of The Flushed Pets, a group of abandoned pets led by a white rabbit Snowball, who often rides on Ripper (but often fails cause of Ripper's small legs and slow speed).
Biography[]
He first appears when Max and Duke are caught by the officers of Animal Control and Ripper keeps crashing the cage he is at, which terrifies Max at first. Snowball leads Tattoo and Dragon and they hijack the truck, while Snowball unlocks Ripper's cage with a carrot key, and then Snowball rides on him. When introducing themselves to Max, out of excitement, Snowball inserts his carrot key into Ripper's nose; after being convinced that Max and Duke are not pets, Snowball continues to go to the sewers on Ripper with them. He cannot speak at all
Later, when Viper suddenly dies, Snowball rides Ripper and tries to catch Max and Duke in the sewers, but he can't reach them because the two dogs eventually flee to Brooklyn.
He appears in the cameo of The Secret Life of Pets 2.
Appearance[]
Ripper has a screen that locks his mouth and some spiky leather belts bound over his body. He has brown fur with white stomach and mouth.
Personality[]
Ripper is completely silent throughout the entire movie; so his personality and character traits are hard to discern. He does appear to be very trustworthy and loyal to Snowball like the other members of the gang. To the point where he often lets Snowball stand on his head for support, ride him, and even appeared unfazed by him accidentally shoving the carrot key up his nostril. He also reacts indifferently to Viper's sudden death. In addition, Ripper always has the same look of anger and dignity on his face.
However, he does appear to retain the same hatred of humans and domesticated animals like his fellow gang members; as when he chases and crashes behind Mel, and Mel doesn't get hurt because Ripper can't bite him.
