Muriel Bagge is the deuteragonist of the series Courage the Cowardly Dog. A Scottish elderly woman, Muriel is the kind and sweet owner of Courage , as well as the industrious wife of Eustace Bagge. Though she is the show's damsel-in-distress, Muriel is also an excellent cook and would not tolerate any nonsense or misbehavior - she always uses her weapon a rolling pin to smack Eustace whenever he scares, teases, abuses, or otherwise mistreats Courage. In her youth, Muriel had reddish-brown hair, but in her old age, she had curly white hair. She usually wears a dark yellow dress with a bright yellow apron, a pair of sturdy black leather boots, and she wears glasses just like her husband.
