Until he died in 1977, René Goscinny did the storyline of the Asterix albums. When given a trail to follow, he will follow the scent to menhirs.Created and drawn by Albert Uderzo. Dogmatix is relatively intelligent, but is useless when it comes to sniffing out a trail. In Asterix and the Chieftain's Shield, Obelix gets mad at hungry people who try to take Dogmatix's bone and insists they will be punished if they try to take advantage of his dog. Since then, Obelix has become very affectionate toward Dogmatix. (Obelix once mentions that this is because Dogmatix likes to urinate on them.) Dogmatix met Asterix and Obelix in Lutetia (in Asterix and the Banquet) and followed them all the way around Gaul until Obelix finally noticed him. Dogmatix loves nature and hates to see trees suffer. Unlike his immense master, Dogmatix is very tiny, but he can have a nasty temper. At the end of the book, Obelix decides to go on a diet, but quickly goes back to eating huge quantities of boar.ĭogmatix is Obelix's pet dog. In Asterix and the Big Fight, a druid mistakes Obelix for a patient with an eating disorder. Obelix's size is often the brunt of many jokes. The only exception was in Asterix and Cleopatra when they were trapped in a pyramid. As a consequence, Getafix will not let him take additional potion for fear of side effects (for example, turning into stone, as shown in Asterix and Obelix all at Sea), something that Obelix finds immensely unfair. His strength results from having fallen into Getafix's magic potion cauldron as a boy. He is a tall, obese man with two notable attributes: his phenomenal strength and his voracious appetite for food, especially wild boar.

Obelix is Asterix's closest friend and works as a menhir sculptor and delivery man.
