Garfield’s Odie Only Ever Spoke 2 Words, But They Were the Perfect Choice

Odie the dog has only spoken once throughout Garfield's newspaper run, but the words chosen were actually a perfect choice. Odie has become known among Garfield fans as the perfect antithesis to Garfield. He's active, carefree and never talks; unlike the lasagna-loving cat. This has made him one of the best and funniest characters in Jim Davis' fan-favorite strip. Little do fans know, though, that Odie has actually spoken before, but only once since he was first introduced in 1978.
