Patou is both the deuteragonist and the narrator of Rock-A-Doodle and Carmen. He was voiced by Phil Harris in his last film role before his retirement and his death in 1995 and Tim Curry in Carmen.

Personality

Patou is a basset hound and a good friend to both Chanticleer and Edmond and the narrator character of the story. He despises the Grand Duke and is dedicated to Edmond's cause to bring Chanticleer back home. He's brave and reasonable, but somewhat temperamental. His endeavour to find Chanticleer is hampered by the fact that he does not know how to tie his shoes (which he wears because of bunions). However, in the end, thanks to Edmond's help earlier, he finally figures out how to tie them right.

Trivia

Phil Harris, his orginal voice actor, was also the voice of Baloo, Thomas O'Malley, and Little John, three Disney characters.
