Why did deputy dawg say dagnabbit?

The phrase "dagnabbit" is a common exclamation in cartoons and other media, but it's not explicitly associated with any specific character named "Deputy Dawg."

It's possible you're thinking of a character who uses that phrase, but it's not a commonly used term.

Can you provide more context? For example:

* What cartoon or show is this from?

* What is the character's name?

* What was the situation when the character said "dagnabbit?"

With more information, I can help you figure out why the character said that.
