Triumph the Insult Dog - Rotweiler-like hand puppet seen on comedy spots on the talk show LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O'BRIEN/NBC/1993+. Conan's degrading dog (identified on the show as a Yugoslavian mountain hound) first compliments a person and then mocks them with his trademark put-down "For me to POOP on!" He "pooped on" (figuratively only) such celebrities as John Tesh, Pauly Shore, Fabio, and David Hasselhoff. Puppeteer-writer Robert Smigel brought the pejorative pup to life. When Triumph reported from the Westminster Dog Show (WKC) he called all the dog's "bitches" and humped every canine in sight. Oh yeah, he "pooped on" everyone, too.  Triumph also likes to smoke cigars.

In 2006, the Las Vegas Police made Triumph an honorary member of their K-9 unit. "This is really an honor for me, because my brother was a bomb-sniffing dog," said Triumph. "In fact, that's how he was able to find Ben Affleck's last three movies." Triumph the Insult Comic Dog
