Dozies are generic enemies that do not actively attack the Kongs. They only walk back and forth, but peck and injure the Kongs upon simply bumping with them, draining one of their heart points. The player can defeat a Dozy using any means of attack, such as a jump, a roll attack, or an object throw. A ground pound can stun them for a brief moment if the Kongs stand close enough to them. They can also be stunned if shot by Diddy, Dixie, or Cranky's popguns.

Dozies can be compared to Awks from Donkey Kong Country Returns. They have a rasher counterpart called the Sour Dodo.
