Skits is the other canine member of the Lorraine family. He's a goofy, large dog, bigger than Martha and the adopted younger brother and sidekick of Martha. Eager and active, Skits looks up to Martha and always wants to help her out. He used to be rather naughty, chewing on things, wetting the rug and jumping on people, but Helen has since trained him. He can also do tricks, including sitting, rolling over, licking on demand (with the command "gimme a kissy", and Helen's favourite), lying down and fetching flying objects, which he greatly enjoys.
