Slinky Dog (Toy Story)

Slinky Dog (better known as Slinky) is a supporting character in the Toy Story franchise. He is a toy dachshund who speaks with a graveled Southern accent. Slinky possesses a plastic front and hindquarters, with a very stretchable metal slinky as his middle (hence his name), vinyl ears and a green collar.

Why He Rocks

 * 1) He's often very nice and a loyal friend to Woody.
 * 2) His design is downright adorable!
 * 3) Jim Varney did a great job voicing him. Blake Clark even gave a decent performance.
 * 4) He was one of the only toys to actually believe Woody when he said that he pushed Buzz out of the window by accident.
 * 5) The toy he was based off of was a popular toy.
 * 6) If you ever get into trouble, you could expect this dog to save you.
 * 7) He got his own amusement park ride at Toy Story Playland.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Unfortunately, Slinky's original actor, Jim Varney, died 10 years before the 3rd movie.
 * 2) Even though Blake Clark gives a decent job as Slinky, his performance doesn't sound identical to Varney's.
 * 3) He was treated pretty badly by Woody in the Black Friday Reel and he was one of Andy's least played toys.
