Hugo is a character that I don't really draw very often, based on my old "German Shepherd" frame. He's older (about 60 years old) and works as a teacher. I usually imagined him as an elementary teacher (most likely first or second grade, as many of my child characters are in this age range).

He's intellectual but a bit absent-minded and aloof, prone to becoming overwhelmed and flustered when there is too much work to do or too many distractions, sometimes forgetful or a touch clumsy. Given that he is older and a bit overweight he moves a bit slowly at times and has the typical aches and pains one would expect an older character to have. However, despite all that he enjoys teaching the youngsters and sharing his knowledge so he takes it all in stride.

Since the children have trouble pronouncing his last name, he generally goes by "Mr. Hugo".
Here, he's giving a lecture... or just rambling on some tangent unrelated to the subject he's supposed to be teaching the youngsters.
