“He is not a dog,” said the voice actor in an interview with Yahoo News. “Pluto is a dog, but Goofy seems to be in the canine family in the same way that a wolf is not a dog, but they also are in the canine family. I think Canis Goofus is the technical Latin term for what Goofy is. He’s just Goofy.”
Disney introduced the cartoon character in 1932 under the name, “Dippy Dawg.” In 1987, Farmer became the voice of Goofy.

An article from Unilad, however, speculated that Goofy might be a standing cow. This is because some Disney movies showed that Goofy was sexually attracted to a cow by the name of Clarabelle Cow.
