Benny (originally known as Benito in the 1998 pilot) is an anthropomorphic blue bull with a huge appetite and an even bigger heart. He often tries to help Dora on her adventures, but Benny is so accident-prone that it is usually him that is in need of Dora’s help. Benny lives in a large red barn. Dora often goes there to visit him. Benny is a skilled dancer and loves fiesta food, especially cake and ice cream. He’s also Tico's best friend. BiographyBenny is a six-year-old bull with a big heart. Benny only speaks English and lives in his barn. Benny is also a bit accident-prone. He once got stuck in a wall and his loud hiccups (also known as "Hic, Boom, Ohhhh!") were heard all the way from Yellow Valley. He also had big loud sneezes after finding out he had an allergy from a big orange flower. But Benny can always count on his friends to get him out of a scrape. Benny isn't always a friend in need; he has also helped Dora in many ways. He played on Dora's Golden Explorers soccer team and helped them beat the dinosaur team; he took Dora and Boots in his go-kart on their way to meet Dora's new twin siblings; and his strength helped them win the Super Adventure Race. Benny loves to crack jokes, especially knock-knock jokes. Despite his clumsy nature, he is very self-confident and is never afraid to speak his mind. In the episode "Boots' Cuddly Dinosaur," Benny reveals that he can not sleep without nine dolls, which he calls his "guys." Benny owns his own hot air balloon with a distinctive rainbow pattern on it. He loves to fly high in the sky with his friends in the balloon, as long as it doesn't have a leak that needs to be fixed with sticky tape. DescriptionBenny is mostly sky blue, with a dark blue torso and black hooves. He almost always wears a blue bandana with white polka dots around his neck. He has small yellow horns, thick yellow eyebrows, light brown irises, and a yellow tuft of hair on his tail. His nose and the insides of his ears are bright pink and shaped like a bean, a hot-dog, or a kidney. He speaks in a raspy scratchy voice. Prior to the show's debut, Benny had a tomato red-colored body. His torso and eyebrows were a pale goldenrod color. He didn’t wear his bandana and was instead planned to wear a blue baseball cap backwards. AppearancesBenny has appeared in many episodes of Dora the Explorer. He never appeared in Diego’s show. But he made a cameo appearance in Diego’s photo album in the picture of Dora and her friends sailing on a pirate ship with him from the Pirate Adventure in the episode Journey to Jaguar Mountain.
