“As a kid watching Lady and the Tramp, I didn’t know Peg was voiced by Peggy Lee, but I think I was attracted to her,” says Bill Barretta, the Muppet performer behind Rowlf the Dog. “She was amazing with the hair over the eye. She was so swinging and cool, and she sang so beautifully. I think I was attracted to this dog. I never experienced anything like that. It’s weird, but she was like, a new feeling for an animation character for me.”
