Production notes

Daycare: In a young kid's life, it's the center of learning and laughter, tears and fears, thrills and spills. It's no different for the crew of four-legged furry friends attending Doggy Day School, where busy dog owners drop off their pets every morning. As in a real kids' daycare setting, the pups of Doggy Day School spend their time playing together and learning about each other in a safe, supportive environment.

Being of all different breeds, colors, shapes, sizes and personalities, the dogs learn to understand, value and respect each other's differences while learning everyday things like visiting the vet, making music, dealing with problems like fleas, good sportsmanship, taking care of babies, hygiene, being open to trying out different foods, and the value of friendship.

Aimed at early learners, each episode of Doggy Day School is a funny, engaging story that encourages kids to embrace the diversity of the world around them and nurtures skills like cooperation, problem-solving and confidence to help prepare them for their learning years.

Art direction and character design were done in Canada, while other production stages were done in Brazil.
