I knew it! I just read in Seven Years of Highly Defective People, by Scott Adams, that Dogbert is based on a real beagle. And you know how much I love beagles (Beagles Rock, May 23, 2010).
Wikipedia page, scroll down to the "Trivia" section:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogbert
"In Seven Years of Highly Defective People, Adams says that Dogbert was a combination of Lucy, a beagle owned by his family when he was a child, and the dark side of his own personality, which he describes as the part that 'wants to take over the world and make all the people [his] personal servants'."
I don't know why this makes me happy. But it does.
