Trivia

  • In promotional material for Cats & Dogs, the Hecking family also had a cat named Joaquin, which didn't make it into the final game.[1]
  • The family is a reference to a meme "they're good dogs Brent" from the Twitter user, WeRateDogsTM, who were tweeting to a user to the user @Brant about his complaints of giving illogical ratings to dog pictures.[2][3]
    • The family name "Hecking" is a reference to the common word @dog_rates would use to describe dogs.
    • The lot the family lives on is called "It's A Good House" referencing the phrase "they're good dogs Brent".
    • Brant and Brent are both names referred to the user @Brant, to which @dog_rates jokingly replied with their name as Brent instead.
