PAW Patrol adaptations: films & series
Every version of PAW Patrol — the films & series, compared across media.
PAW Patrol began as an animated series following Ryder, a tech-savvy ten-year-old, and his team of rescue pups — Marshall, Rocky, Rubble, Zuma, and Skye — protecting their community with specialized gear and teamwork. That same world of canine heroes and Adventure City has since expanded into theatrical films and a spin-off series. Whether you know these characters from television or the big screen, every version shares the same core: a kid and his dogs making their town a safer place.
