Dora has Down Syndrome.

It is believed that the Nick Jr. star, Dora the Explorer, has Down Syndrome, and that she also has hydrocephalus, which explains her uniquely large head.

Dora's also believed to speak about three times louder than the other characters in the series, and that because of her mental disability, she also suffers from classic ADHD, which is why she can't remember what map told her three times.

Boots is actually her guiding animal, and the yellow bracelet on Dora's wrist is actually a tracking device that would serve as a means of finding her if she were ever to get lost.
