Pal Read:[21][22] (Simon Peacock, main speaking voice, from season 6 onwards, Michael Yarmush from season 1, Arthur Holden from season 3, Yvette Kaplan in "Arthur's Missing Pal", vocal effects by Frank Welker) Arthur's pet puppy. He is a mixed breed of English Setter (from dad[23]) and St. Bernard[citation needed]. D.W. often refers to him as "Arthur's crazy dog". In earlier episodes, he was easily excited and often destroyed the house, but Arthur was able to train him. He is revealed to be able to speak in some episodes, but other than Kate and most other animals, no one can understand him. When he does speak, he speaks properly with an English accent in an adult voice, despite being a puppy.
