Owen the Border Collie is a fictional, anthropomorphic tri-colour Border collie, and the leader of the main group of characters in both Lippies V.1, and the most recent, Lippies V.6. He has made many appearances as a regular dog in stories from the past, but recently he has made some appearances as an anthropomorphic dog in the Lippies stories, at first as a Sonic fan character. He was later replaced with a character named Duke the Dhole in Lippies V.3, V.5 and for Lippies V.4 to prevent confusion with the regular, non-anthropomorphic version of the character, however since the original version of the character was no longer used in stories, the anthropomorphic version has been brought back for Lippies V.6 as an original character, rather than a Sonic fan character like in Lippies V.1 and
