Douglas, the Crocopup

DreamWorks

Douglas is one of two creatures in the movie that actually gets an onscreen name. Son Thunk (center, Clark Duke) takes a liking to this affable canine-type and he is welcomed into the family as a pet, which is unusual since most animals they come across are either something to be wary of or used as a food source.
