Help me with novel uses of Snoopy

For something I’m working on, I could use a bit of input from the vast hivemind of Peanuts fans out there. Can any of you name any (non-Peanuts) novels that use Snoopy in either of these two ways:

  • As a real character, as if the beagle from the strip is real in the world of the novel (for example, he’s used this way, if only in passing, in Robert Mayer’s Superfolks.)
  • As a recurring touchpoint in the novel (for example, Al Franken’s novel about running for president has Snoopy being used in animated ads for his campaign.)

I could really use a third example, besides those two I’ve mentioned. Please send any suggestions to questions@aaugh.com – thanks.
