Nickelodeon introduces new animated preschool series, Paw Patrol, on Monday, Aug. 12, at 8:30 p.m. (ET/PT). Paw Patrol stars a pack of six heroic rescue pups – Chase, Marshall, Rocky, Rubble, Zuma and Skye - who are led by a tech-savvy boy named Ryder. Together they work hard to protect the Adventure Bay community believing, “no job is too big, no pup is too small!” The series features a curriculum that focuses on citizenship, social skills and problem-solving. Paw Patrol will regularly air weekdays at 12 p.m. (ET/PT) on Nickelodeon.
In conjunction with the Paw Patrol launch, Nickelodeon has partnered with the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) to help deliver the organization’s message of humane animal treatment. Preschoolers will learn about pet care and how to be an animal advocate through on-air spots, online activities and printables featuring Paw Patrol characters and themes.
In the Paw Patrol series premiere, “Pups and the Kitty-tastrophe/Pups Save a Train,” Ryder and the Paw Patrol rescue a lost kitty from the bay, but who will save them from all the mayhem she causes? Then, Ryder, Rubble, Rocky and Chase must help free Katie and Cali’s train from a rockslide.
At NickJr.com little fans can watch the Paw Patrol trailer, print activity packs, and parents can submit photos of their preschoolers with their pets for a chance to be on TV. On Tuesday, Aug. 13, the series premiere will be available on the site. The excitement for Paw Patrol will continue as printable party supplies and a new game are scheduled to launch this October.
