Arf Dawg
Pesky lil' critter... Bites the hand that feeds it. Impressive array of tricks: fetches sponges, chases squirrels, spontaneously combusts.
—Police Station
Arf Dawgs are robots that appear as an enemy in the video games Battle for Bikini Bottom and Battle for Bikini Bottom: Rehydrated. They are spawned by Arfs, and they first appear in the Mermalair as the tenth robot Template:Data:Links encounters in his adventures, first seen being sent by an Arf to attack a sponge on a hook in its introductory cutscene.
Description
Arf Dawgs are dog-like robots that behave a lot like the Bomb-Bot. They have dots for eyes, teeth, and an antenna on their heads.
In Rehydrated, Arf Dawgs have green antenna tails and their dotted eyes have been replaced with a green-lit eye. Both the antenna and their eyes will turn red whenever they spot SpongeBob.
Abilities
- Self-destruction
Role in game
Arf Dawgs are spawned in groups of three or four from an Arf; since Arfs only appear in two levels, the Mermalair and the Kelp Forest. They chase after the player, and at close range, they will explode.
Trivia
- Error: Despite its Most Wanted description stating that an Arf Dawg "chases squirrels," Template:Data:Links cannot encounter an Arf Dawg normally.
- Unlike other robots, Arf Dawgs do not drop Shiny Objects, possibly to prevent players from letting an Arf spawn them infinitely for more. They share this trait with jellyfish (which are not robots).
