- Pete the Pup (September 6, 1929- January 28, 1946) was a Pit Bull character in Hal Roach's Our Gang comedies (later known as The Little Rascals) during the 1920s and 1930s. Otherwise known as "Pete, the Dog With the Ring Around His Eye", or simply "Petey", he was well-known for having a circled eye that was added on by Hollywood make-up artist Max Factor and credited as an oddity in Ripley's Believe It or Not. The original Pete (sired by Earl Tudor's "Black Jack") was an American Pit Bull Terrier named "Pal the Wonder Dog", and had a natural ring almost completely around his eye; dye was used to finish it off. When he was about six months old, Pal the Wonder Dog made a cameo appearance in the Harold Lloyd film The Freshman, in 1925. Pal first started out as "Tige" in the Buster Brown series in the 1920s. It was during this time that he obtained the circled eye, and when he was recruited to appear in the Our Gang comedies later that year, Hal Roach simply left it on, creating one of the most recognized dogs in film history. In the 1994 remake of The Little Rascals, the new Pete is an American Bulldog. Trainer and owner Lt. Harry Lucenay used one of Pal's offspring as Pete in the series after Pal was poisoned and died in 1930 . This dog, named "Lucenay's Peter", was registered as an AKC American Staffordshire Terrier. Lucenay's Peter was born September 6, 1929 in New York City, bred by A. A. Keller. The dog was also UKC regestered under the name Purple Ribbon Peter (22558). A few other dogs played Petey, but Lucenay's Peter was the best known. After being fired from the Our Gang series in 1932, Harry Lucenay retired Peter to Atlantic City, where he was photographed with children at the Steel Pier. Roach used a number of unrelated Pit Bulls to portray Pete in Our Gang until 1938. Lucenay's Peter continued on and died of old age on January 28, 1946 in Los Angeles, California at age 16, two years after the Our Gang series ended.
- «Petey» eller «Pete the Pup» var en var en amerikansk pit bull terrier kjent fra den amerikanske tv-serien Rakkerungene. Petey ble til daglig kalt «Pal», men i registreringspapirene hans hos United Kennel Club heter han «Lucenay's Peter». Han var avlet av A. A. Keller og eid og trent av Harry Lucenay. I tv-serien var Petey kjent for sin karakteristiske sirkel (pigment) rundt det ene øyet. Denne sirkelen var ikke planlagt, men før en innspilling hadde noen moret seg med å tegne en sirkel rundt Peteys ene øye. Denne lot seg ikke fjerne hurtig, så innspillingen måtte skje med sirkelen intakt. Sirkelen gjorde imidlertid sitt til at hunden framsto som original, derfor beholdt de den også i senere innspillinger. Observante seere legger imidlertid raskt merke til at sirkelen kunne opptre på både venstre og høyre øye. Det skyldes at Petey med tiden fikk såkalte stand-ins. Den opprinnelige Petey ble drept av en fremmed ved forgiftning. Den siste filmen han medvirket i, var «A Tough Winter», som hadde premiere den 21. juni 1930. Den neste Petey var etterkommer av den opprinnelige Petey, men karrieren som Petey sluttet i 1932.
