Biography
Racing Life
Santa's Little Helper raced frequently at the Springfield Downs. On Christmas Eve, after being fed up with his loss streak, Santa's Little Helper's owner disowned him outside of the stadium. Running to the first person he saw, the greyhound leaped into an angry Homer's arms and kissed him, calming him immediately. Homer and Bart brought the dog home, where he was accepted as the family pet alongside Snowball II.
Life with the Simpsons
Canine College
Though mostly well behaved, Santa's Little Helper took to frequently chewing up the house. Finally, Homer lost patience with the dog and proposed two options: take him to obedience school or get rid of him. Bart enrolled Santa's Little Helper in Canine College. Santa's Little Helper made no progress and continued to destroy family heirlooms. In an effort to get his dog to pass, Bart tirelessly attempted to teach Santa's Little Helper basic tricks, which failed to work. After losing all hope, Bart gave up, but Santa's Little Helper began to respond on cue. He passed the exam with flying colors.
