Snipped from Wikipedia (yeah, I know, that's cheating):
Fido Dido is a cartoon character created by Joanna Ferrone and Sue Rose. Rose first developed the character in 1985 on a napkin in a restaurant.[4] They later stenciled Fido on T-shirts with the credo: "Fido is for Fido, Fido is against no one".[5] These T-shirts became very popular in New York.[6]
Fido Dido was licensed to PepsiCo in around 1988, but the character did not receive much attention or popularity until the early 1990s on numerous products, particularly stationery. Later, he was replaced with Cool Spot as the brand mascot.
Fido Dido reappeared in the 2000s and is still, as of July 2010[update], used on cans and advertising for 7up in countries worldwide.
Fido Dido has been licensed to Pepsico for their and Slice brands in markets outside the United States; 7 Up, a product of Dr Pepper Snapple Group, is licensed to Pepsico for manufacture and distribution in markets outside the U.S. Fido Dido is also used on PepsiCo's Turkish soft drink Fruko.[7]
So yeah, pretty much the same story.
I always liked Cool Spot better.
