Catch the latest, cherish the timeless
As far as I remember, he was the only Beagle who got a gift from Santa, so he's probably hiding Roxanne because he knows all his brothers and mom will try to make her a criminal.
Although, perhaps he received this gift by mistake, so that he could give it to Roxanne later.
Idk if this is a unique theory…
But like… image the story. Giving up a life of crime and separating himself from his family for the sake of his daughter. Did they disown him or is he hiding from them? Do they know he has a daughter at all?
It would explain why he’s so protective of Roxanne..
The Dads!
Pete, Horace, Goofy and Mr. Rover (AKA Roxanne's dad)
i'd say they all have different parenting styles, Goofy would always be best dad in my opinion.
