Nickelodeon and Spin Master Entertainment Expand the PAW Patrol Franchise

In an exciting move for the preschool entertainment sector, Nickelodeon and Spin Master Entertainment are enhancing their successful franchise, PAW Patrol, with a fresh lineup of five original hour-long specials. Each animated special will spotlight a different pup, starting with the jungle rescuer Tracker, set to debut this fall. Following that, a pup-tacular holiday event featuring construction expert Rubble will also be released, with the remaining PAW Patrol specials scheduled for rollout in 2026.

New Episode Cycle and Special Highlights

This announcement follows the recent confirmation of episode cycles for seasons 12 and 13 of the award-winning series, solidifying its position as a leader in preschool programming.

Upcoming Specials

The fall special, Valiente: A Tracker Story, will see Tracker and his caretaker Carlos encounter nocturnal animals fleeing the ominous Shadow Jungle. With the help of Ryder and the PAW Patrol pups, they must confront their fears and thwart the villain Lucita Mala, who threatens to turn night into day permanently.

Debuting this holiday season, the second special, A PAW Patrol Christmas, follows Rubble as he eagerly anticipates a new laser drill from Santa. However, when Santa catches a cold and is unable to deliver presents, Mayor Humdinger’s plan to seize all the gifts for himself will require the full force of the PAW Patrol to stop him.
