So who's Wile Coyote?

Your wolf looks like a coyote, Atty!

It's his brother, with a red nose and white eyes. Likes to eat sheep instead of road runners. I edited the post above with a link to a wiki, but here's an excerpt:
Ralph (named after a Warner Bros. employee) has virtually the same character design as another Chuck Jones character, Wile E. Coyote—brown fur, wiry body, and huge ears, but with a red nose in place of the Coyote's black one; (usually) white eyes instead of Wile E.'s yellow; and, occasionally, a fang protruding from his mouth. He also shares the Coyote's appetite, and persistent use of Acme Corporation products, but he covets sheep instead of road runners and, when he speaks, doesn't have the upper-class accent or the egotistical bearing of the Coyote. Another crucial difference is that of personality: Ralph does not have the fanatical drive of the Coyote in pursuing his prey, preferring to abandon his chase at the end of the working day.

Sam, by contrast, is a large, burly Berger the Brie (Brie Sheepdog) with white or tan fur and mop of red hair that usually covers his eyes. He very rarely runs and tends to be sedentary in his movements. He does, however, possess sufficient strength to incapacitate Ralph with a single punch once he catches him.

Now, the two did appear in road runner episodes, I think. Often on the "show" in their own shorts. That's probably what Whiskey meant when she said "on Road runner".

I've decided on a "lesser-know, but nostalgic USA cartoon characters" theme.

I like that theme. :) I was torn between Marvin and Gossamer.

I'm still thinking about it. I guess I'd better get off my duff and figure it out soon! I still need to find a Vet to start a Welcome thread for me, too!

not necessary, one of us will cover it! but if you have an ecf vet who knows a little more about you that would be great too!

but it will be covered no matter what! all you have to do is pick out a theme ;)
