we are surprising the kids, and DS b-day will be on our trip. His fav. character is Pluto.:p We went 2 years ago and guess who we did not see:( We did Chef Mickeys, but that was Goofy...we love all the characters, but need to seek out Pluto this time! Also, going in Aug., will the characters be out less due to heat? I hear the Christmas holidays are the best for seeing the most ones.
 
Pluto's not too hard to find. I've always seen him at the Character Social at the end of the Castle Show and on the character bus at EPCOT. He also appears at some of the character meals (Liberty Tree Tavernat MK, Garden Grill at EPCOT, and Donald's Breakfeastasaurus at AK)
 
Thanks Meeko, I checked out your link and saw that Pluto is also at the toontown gazeebo, behind Minnies house. I can't thank you enough. Do you know if this is accurate? I have learned to never make promises....but would love to do our best to thrill the little guy.
 
We've also seen him frequently on our trips, he was at AK in the character area by Lion King one year and I can't remember where else but we do have photos of him in our autograph books. While you are in the MK, go to City Hall and they will be able to tell you where he will appear that day. And this may not be Pluto but: Many people do not know this, and I hope they haven't stopped it, but if you go in the back of Exposition Hall (where Tonys' Town Square restaurant is) there are a ton of characters that you will have practically to yourself. We've seen 5 dwarfs, the fairy godmother, Cinderella, Cruella and many others and spent tons of time with them.

It should be accurate. He's been doing greets at the Gazebo for about a year now and I havn't heard anything about moving him (which could happen, locations tend to change a little every few months). The Character Bus at EPCOT, the Character Social at MK, and the character meals are good bets though since they remain pretty constant and almost always have the more popular characters like Pluto, Mickey, Goofy, and Minnie. If you don't happen to see him, you could always ask a Cast Member. They'll know where he'll be. :D
 
yes - when we went in March this year - we had just finished visiting Minnie Mouse's House and was walking into the garden area and saw Pluto in the Gazebo. It was a lovely surprise.
My brother and I were dead happy to see him!
 
We ran into Pluto in Animal Kingdom - outside trail leading to Camp Minnie Mickey. He was posing for pictures and it was not very crowded!
 
Schedule a PS for lunch or dinner at Liberty tree tavern. We have been there many, many times and pluto has always been there!
 
We actually rode the Ferry from TTC to MK with Pluto in January. (Chip and Dale were on the other ferry).
 
I found him on the Character Carvan in Epcot and behind Minnie's House ... He was also at Chef Mickey's for breakfast and the Garden Grill.

I love watching him sign autographs :p It's so cute the way he has to hold the book on top of his nose!
 
Whatever park you go to, check with Guest Services and they should be able to tell you where and when Pluto can be found if he's appearing.

We've always seen him in Magic Kingdom, various spots (The Castle, Fantasyland, Main Street). He has shown up at Chef Mickey's during our dinners too.

At Animal Kingdom, he been out by the gates greeting people as they enter....along with a bunch of other characters.

Hope you're able to find him and make your son's day!

Have a great trip and tell your son Happy Birthday!
 
Apparently Pluto also roams the MGM Studios from time to time.

One time I visited MGM, I wore my standard Pluto t-shirt and Pluto watch. It was unusually cold that day, so I looked for an inexpensive sweatshirt, and they actually had one with PLUTO! I bought it and went into the Prime Time Cafe bathroom to change. When I came out there was PLUTO!

He pointed at my sweatshirt and got all excited. I lifted my sweatshirt to show him my t-shirt, and he went nuts. Then when I showed him my watch he practically collapsed. You can bet I got a picture with him that day!

I've also never had trouble running into him, even by pure chance! I'd second the suggestion of asking at City Hall if you want to be sure.

We have also seen him at H&V in MGM. Do not know if this is still true but he was there a year or two ago.:confused:

Unfortunatly, they are currently no longer doing character meals at Hollywood and Vine. It's been that way for a couple of months no. I havn't heard any word on it comming back this Summer either.
