'''Sweetheart (Sweetie Pie''' in the online book) or '''Sweaty''', known as simply '''Sweetie''', is a [[Wikipedia:Dog|dog]] that [[Frank Heffley|Frank]] got when his [[Grandpa Heffley|dad]] told him that he ran over his old dog [[Nutty]] with his car. Greg tries to give him a legitimate name like 'Ripjaw' or 'Shredder' but Susan thought they were too violent. Manny tries to name the dog with animal names but Susan and Frank didn't like that. Rodrick liked Manny's idea and wanted to name the dog 'Turd', which Rodrick says is short for turtle. Eventually, Susan decides to name the dog herself after the three boys had a fight. Unfortunately, she names the dog 'Sweetheart' and shortens it to 'Sweetie', much to Greg's dismay because Greg claims the dog is actually male, not female.

Personality

Sweetie is lazy and mischievous. As shown as he lies around all day, and when he made Greg chase him through the neighborhood in his underwear. Sweetie doesn't take a liking to most people, mostly for what they do to him, like Frank, who constantly seeks his attention and annoys Sweetie to no end. He usually dawns over the comfort of Susan, even though she doesn't like Sweetie as much as Frank does.

Other Roles

In the Movie

At Rodrick's party, some girls who are looking at the photo of the family with him in it say he is very "cute". Rodrick tells them that he is in the basement, Greg thought they were talking about him, until Rodrick took Sweetie and locked the door. In this version he is quite attracted to Rowley and Greg's mother Ann (Susan).

On Poptropica

In Wimpy Wonderland Island, in Rodrick's room, you can find a dog bowl that says "Sweaty" on it, like the bowl Rodrick got for Sweetie. You use it later in the Four Liter Layout minigame.

In the Dog Days movie advertisement, go to the edge of the pool, and you'll see Sweetie next to the "Sweaty" dog dish.
