Francis (The Super Mario Bros. Movie)

Francis is a pet dog of the Brooklyn couple appearing in The Super Mario Bros. Movie. Francis has red fur and a collar engraved with his name.

When Mario and Luigi arrive at their house to fix the dripping pipe under the sink, Francis starts to happily lick the woman's face. Luigi accidentally steps on the dog's bone and breaks it, causing Francis gets angry at him. After the brothers fix the drip, Francis enters the bathroom with the broken bone in his mouth, closes the door, and attacks Luigi. Mario throws a shower bottle at Francis to distract him, and manages to trap it in the shower. The mess caused by the attack fills the shower with water, making Francis all wet, and helping it escape the shower from above. Francis jumps at the brothers, but falls out of the window. Luigi grabs Mario, and Mario grabs Francis in the air with a plunger, saving him from falling down. The scene then cuts to Mario trying to get Francis out of the toilet as the owners walk in. Mario fully pulls Francis out of the toilet, jokingly calling him "the problem" with the plumbing.
