Quite possibly the most important, and certainly the richest, dog in [[Ankh-Morpork]]. His mother was a pedigreed spoon hound. His father was, due to the nature of Discworld [[genetics]], all of the dogs that his mother met after getting out one night. This dog is of such importance that there are [[Lavishes|quite a lot of people]] who want to see him dead, and the sooner the better. He was formerly owned by [[Topsy Lavish]] who, in the will dictated from her deathbed to [[Mr. Slant]], in the presence of a legally binding number of witnesses, bequeathed him into the care of the [[Master of the Royal Mint]].

The double whammy, for the [[Moist von Lipwig|Master]], is that the dog is personally worth $AM20,000 (to be paid in arrears) for every full year he remains alive. The dog is ''also'' worth $AM100,000 to the [[Assassins' Guild]], who are under orders to inhume the Master, should any unfortunate accident befall the dog. Fortunately the Assassins have a code of conduct, or the general Ankh-Morpork ethos might suggest, to an Assassin of a certain turn of mind, that to kill the dog himself and thus activate the deferred contract would be worth a cool hundred grand. Indeed, as [[Vetinari]] points out, somewhat acidly, Moist has been done a great favour here, as the Guild of Assassins will not accept a second contract on his life.

Mr Fusspot is notable for being the only small lapdog to '''''ever''''' tree [[Angua von Überwald]] in her werewolf form. The strange and unique circumstances in which he manages this are related in {{MM}}.

At the conclusion of the book, Mr Fusspot leaves his temporary abode with the Master of the Mint, and finds another home with a kind and appreciative new [[Vetinari|Master]].
