In one episode it was revealed that Swiper has a soft spot for puppies, and in another that he likes Cowboy cookies. Over the course of the series, it's shown that there's more to Swiper's character than an urge to swipe things. Swiper's relatives was only seen once (and twice mentioned), his grandmother has been mentioned in 2 episodes: " A Letter for Swiper" and " Swiper the Explorer", and she appeared in Swiper's Favorite Things. He has a young voice, appearance and he has a living grandma. He was 9 years old in earlier episodes but in the Season 2 episode, " Whose Birthday is It?", he turns 10. He has only been seen once without his mask, when the robot butterfly he built to swipe from Dora and Boots (in the episode " Dora's Got a Puppy") apparently malfunctioned after they stopped it, it stole his mask and gloves and kept them from him for a few humorous seconds. In the early episodes he often "hid" by curling up into a ball, which neither Dora nor Boots ever recognized as Swiper he apparently doesn't do this anymore.

Most of the time, however, he simply relies on his natural stalking abilities (sometimes with the aid of a costume, he would always give himself away as his Signature tail constantly pops out of the costume) to sneak up on Dora. He has a great deal of technical knowledge, as he's built a variety of vehicles and gadgets (including a remote-controlled robot butterfly) to help him swipe things. Swiper is very fast, agile, and somewhat of a master of disguise. In the episode " Dora Saves the Mermaids", he revealed that he "likes swiping." He has a New York accent and lives in a burrow on top of Blueberry Hill.

It's also shown that he rarely knows the full importance of what he's taken for example, he had no idea the aforementioned gift was for Dora's puppy. Compounding the confusion is the fact that, given the right reason, for example, that the item in question is a present for Dora's puppy, he'll return items he has taken, no matter how much effort he went through to get them. Until recently, it was unclear if he swipes merely for the joy of swiping, or from a desire to annoy and/or frustrate Dora. Swiper's motive for theft is patently childish he never seems actually to want the object he takes, since he almost immediately throws it away to hide the item from Dora (prompting her to ask the audience to help her find it). His white eyes and black pupils are concealed behind a blue do-rag/mask, matching his gloves. Swiper's pelt is primarily an orange burgundy creme, with highlights on his eyebrows, the top of his snout, undercarriage, and the end of his tail. He then gloats, "You're too late! You'll never find it/them/your/the/that/those now!") Usually, she prevails, and Swiper slinks away, snapping his fingers and saying, "Oh, man!" in some occasions, Swiper, however, gets to the item before Dora has a chance to repeat the phrase. To prevent Swiper from succeeding, Dora must repeat the phrase, " Swiper, no swiping!" 3 times. Clever as he is, Swiper never manages to take Dora completely by surprise a whisking sound is (almost) always audible just prior to his appearances, due to leafs or other objects that may collide with him. As his name implies, Swiper swipes or attempts to swipe key items that help Dora on her adventures. He is a 10 (9 for the first 50 episodes) year old sneaky orange fox who is easily recognized by his blue mask and gloves and his love for swiping anything that he happens to come upon.
