Toothy's friends are always by his side.
This article focuses on the interactions between Toothy and every other character in Happy Tree Friends.
Overview
Being one of the four primary characters, Toothy has interacted with every other character in the series except for Lammy and Mr. Pickels. Toothy has been known to act friendly towards everyone he meets, even more so than other characters.
Relationships
Cuddles
- Main article: Toothy-Cuddles Relationship
Toothy and Cuddles are best friends, as shown in various episodes. The things they did together include teasing zoo animals in From A to Zoo, dressing in costumes in Autopsy Turvy, and throwing snowballs in Strain Kringle. A particular sign of their friendship stands out in Blast from the Past as Cuddles consoles an injured Toothy. Even at the one time they weren't in good terms, they came to forgive each other in the end.
Giggles
Giggles is also one of Toothy's friends. In Blast from the Past, she and Cuddles consoled Toothy after he broke his arm in the playground. Toothy was happy to see Giggles being put down by Splendid in Better Off Bread. He was also mad at Splendid for hurting Giggles in See What Develops. Cuddles is often seen with them, which would make sense considering he is their friend and also Giggles' main love interest.
Lumpy
For the most part, Lumpy and Toothy are friends. However, there are moments where their friendship is tested, such as We're Scrooged!, in which Lumpy deliberately kills Toothy before selling his body parts for profit. He also captured Toothy (along with several other characters) and cracked his head like an egg in Dunce Upon a Time.
Petunia
Petunia and Toothy are most likely friends. Their main interaction involved them building a snowman together in From Hero to Eternity. They have also been on trips together on several occasions, including Happy Trails Pt. 1, From A to Zoo, Take a Hike, and Camp Pokeneyeout.
Handy
Despite being in the same place a few times, they haven't quite met each other yet. The closest thing of an interaction between them so far would be Breaking Wind, where a dead Handy accidentally crashed his tow trunk into Toothy, and in Class Act Handy is clearly awed by Toothy's singing.
Sniffles

Similar to Cuddles, Sniffles can be considered as one of Toothy's closest friends. They appear together in moments such as Ski Kringle, Ipso Fatso, A Sight for Sore Eyes, and Camp Pokeneyeout. They are usually seen with Cuddles; Toothy possibly being the glue who holds the trio together.

Lifty and Shifty
Lifty and Shifty have taken advantage of Toothy once in Junk in the Trunk. He simply acted puzzled after Shifty tapped his shoulder, not suspecting they would steal his pet tortoise. They also appeared at a dinner party together sitting opposite each other in Kringle Feast, implying somewhat of a friendship.
