Go, dog, go!

Cars, blimps, boats, bikes and trikes
Just being awesome?
Welcome to Pawston
Go, go, go, go, go, dog, go!
-Hey, go... -Go, go, go, go, go, dog, go!
And do we really wanna stop?
No, no, no
-So, just, go, go, go, go, go-go-go -Go, dog, go!
Go, dog, go!
Yes, it's snowing!
It's Sniffsmas time and it's snowing and it's Sniffsmas time!
Oh, Paw, it's just perfect.
And here's the best part. I put a little doorbell on it.
I can't wait to see it up on the big Pawston Sniffsmas tree.
As soon as the glue dries, we'll head into town.
That gives me time to mail my letter to Sandra Paws!
Wanna hear it? Okay, great!
"Dear Sandra Paws, what I really want for Sniffsmas
is the Sam Whippet Racer 6000 remote control car.
It's the one with racing stripes, a super turbo engine and rocket boosters.
I drew a picture so you don't confuse it with the Sam Whippet Racer 5000."
-That's clear. -Nice!
The picture helps.
"Could you please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please,
bury one in the snow tonight so I can dig it up on Sniffsmas morning?
Thanks. Love, Tag Barker."
What do you think?
I think it's like the other 50 letters you sent Sandra Paws.
What? My other letters only have one "please."
This one has nine!
I'm gonna pick up Scooch and we'll meet you dogs in town!
Well, the good news is, the glue's dry!
Is there bad news?
Come on, Scooch, it's your first Pawston Sniffsmas!
Are you so excited?
Nah, not really.
What?
Kidding!
I'm wearing my Sandra Paws slippers,
I knit this Sandra Paws hat for Cluckles, baked a batch of cinnamon jerky cookies,
Sandra's favourite-- Oh, and wait for it!
I'm a pretty big fan.
In fact, this year, I asked Sandra Paws if I could meet her.
Really? But nobody meets Sandra Paws.
Can't hurt to ask.
I'm gonna wait up tonight and hopefully she'll knock on my door.
And I'll be all, "Hi, Sandra Paws, I can't believe I get to meet you!"
But I'll try to play it much cooler than that.
Do you like my ornament?
It looks just like our farm.
I love it, Mom. Our old home in our new town.
It's your first Sniffsmas, Yip, so you get to hang it up.
Scooch! Is that Sandra Paws?
With my Sam Whippet Racer 6000?
Nope, it's just Beans.
Hey, guys! What do you think of my jingle collar?
Wow, Beans. It's so festive!
Yup, I love Sniffsmas!
Hey, where's Frank?
He stayed home. Frank doesn't love Sniffsmas.
Or likes Sniffsmas. Or like it when I say Sniffsmas.
How come?
He won't tell me!
Every Sniffsmas, he just stays home and says, "Pah-humpug!"
All I want for Sniffsmas is for Frank to celebrate with me.
And new skis. But mostly the Frank part.
Sounds like you need to get Frank into the holiday spirit.
Yup! So take him around Pawston
and show him all the best parts of Sniffsmas!
Yeah, okay, I'll give it a shot.
Kids, come meet us at the river for ice skating.
-Hi, Beans! -Merry Sniffsmas, Mrs Barker!
I wonder where Sandra Paws is right now.
With my Sam Whippet Racer 6000!
I know how we can find out!
Really?
Hi, Spike!
Hey, little sis! Merry Sniffsmas! From space!
I'll be home by tomorrow morning. From space!
Hey, we were wondering where--
Say no more, Tag. I've got the Sandra Tracker up right now.
Sandra just left the North Pole and now she's flying over the Barktic.
She should be arriving in Pawston by...
Wait a minute! That's weird.
Sandra's sleigh went off course!
"Off course"?
Where's Sandra Paws?
I just pulled up a satellite picture.
It looks like she's stranded on the Mutterhorn.
But if she can't fly her sleigh, then she can't bring me my racer!
Tag, this is more important than your toy!
If Sandra Paws can't fly,
then Sniffsmas will be ruined for everyone!
Then it's up to you to save it!
Who? Us?
Tag, you're the best fix-it dog I know! I'm sure you can fix a sleigh.
And, Scooch, you're the best fix-it dog's best friend.
You're right, Spike! We'll do it!
We're gonna spend the best day of the year
trudging up a snowy mountain?
When I can be drinking hot cider with my mom?
You'd get to meet Sandra Paws!
Let's get packin'!
Yes! Go, dog, go!
Ma! Paw!
Spike told me Sandra Paws's sleigh broke down on a mountain!
And then he asked Scooch and me to go fix it. Is that okay?
Well, if anybody can do it... you can!
Yes, please save Sniffsmas. It's my favourite holiday.
Also-- I'm not good at this!
My mom says I can go, too!
I'm doing it! I'm doing it!
I packed my Sandra Paws stocking, cinnamon jerky cookies,
extra jerky and cinnamon to make more cookies. Just in case.
And a camera for a Sandra Paws selfie.
And Cluckles. But he's a carry-on item.
Great, Scooch. And I packed all the gear we'll need for our trip.
How far to the Mutterhorn?
According to this map, it's precisely...
really super far.
What should we do to pass the time?
Sing Sniffsmas songs!
On the first day of Sniffsmas Sandra gave to me...
A collar to keep away fleas!
On the second day of Sniffsmas Sandra gave to me...
Frank! You're decorating our tree with candy canes?
That means you had the Sniffsmas spirit after all!
Candy canes?
I thought these were backscratchers.
Okay, that's the spot.
Okay, no moping around in the tree this year.
You're comin' with me to see the magic of Sniffsmas!
I'm gonna show you all my favourite Sniffsmas stuff
so you love it as much as I do!
Pah-humpug!
I didn't want to have to do this, Frank, but you leave me no choice.
No! Make it stop!
Only if you come with me!
Anything to stop the jingling!
Yay! Sniffsmas! Yay!
398 tails a-wagging 397 pups a-playing
396 dachshunds dashing
Why'd you stop? Now we have to start over.
On the first day...
Scooch! Look!
The Mutterhorn!
That's a lot of mountain!
How do we get up there?
We snow, dog, snow!
Hold onto your feathers, Cluckles!
I don't get it. What are those?
Gingerbread doghouses!
You make a lot of cookies. I love this tradition!
Especially while drinking a warm cup of nog.
So, when do we eat them?
No! You don't eat 'em, Frank.
You look at 'em.
Like this.
Speaking of looking, Beans, look over there!
It's Sandra Paws!
Where? Where?
Hey! Where's the roof?
Stale. Pah-humpug!
It's very... what's the word?
Snowy.
We can power through!
My Sam Whippet Racer 6000 can't be much further.
Go, dog--
No! We're stuck!
We have to walk!
"Walk"? That seems far. And cold.
Our hats will keep us warm.
And our songs will keep us busy!
On the first day of Sniffsmas Sandra gave to me...
Four green birds Three French poodles
Two wheezing pugs And a collar to keep away fleas!
I like that song very much!
See, Frank? That's a Sniffsmas carol!
"Carol"? I thought her name was Lydia.
Also, why sing stuff when you can just say it?
Like this...
On the first day of Sniffsmas, Sandra Paws gave to me...
nothing!
First of all, that's a super sad talk song.
Also, you sing carols together because that makes you feel good!
Come on, Frank, just give it a try!
Fetch the Balls With Labs and Collies
‘Tis the season to be jolly
Pah-humpug!
Showing you the magic of Sniffsmas is harder than I thought.
Tag, it's so cold.
I think we should turn back and go home.
Maybe you're right.
We can't even see where we're going!
But we're close!
I can practically smell that Sam Whippet Racer.
All I can smell is my mom's cider.
And fresh biscuits.
And a cosy fire.
Is this really happening, Tag? Or is my nose fooling me?
Your nose knows, Scooch. Look!
Do you dogs need a place to warm up?
Hi, I'm Taylee!
That's Mom and Mommy.
I'm whispering 'cause my baby brother is sleeping in the other room.
That's him! Isn't he cute?
So cute!
I'm Tag, this is Scooch.
What brings you pups out this way on Sniffsmas Eve?
Sandra Paws's sleigh bro--
Don't tell the little kid!
What about Sandra's sleigh?
-Nothing. -Nothing.
We're... gonna try to get a good view of her sleigh on the mountaintop.
-Right, Scooch? -That's right.
We just needed to warm up first.
You're in luck. We just made a pot of cider.
My mom always makes cider on Sniffsmas Eve.
And we're about to light our Sniffsmas tree!
It reminds me of home.
This is my favourite Sniffsmas tradition of all!
The lighting of the Sniffsmas tree!
-Paw-hum-- -Frank!
Before you say "Pah-humpug," just give it a chance?
Please?
Good evening, everyone!
Good evening, Mayor Sniffington.
And a happy holiday season to one and all!
It's been a wonderful year for our Pawston community!
And now it's time to light the tree!
The big light on the top is the most important one!
Ask me why, Frank. Ask me, ask me, ask me!
I'm not going to do that.
I thought you'd never ask.
'Cause it's what Sandra Paws uses to find Pawston
as she flies in her sleigh at night.
Wait till you see it lit!
Isn't it magical, Frank?
A little bright. But not bad.
Wow!
It's a little tree. But do you think Sandra Paws
will see it from the window?
I'm sure Sandra Paws will see it.
Good! 'Cause I asked her for three things this year.
Three?
A new scarf and mittens for my mommies,
and a tricycle for my baby brother.
He doesn't get a lot of new toys.
So I wanted him to get a big one!
Wow! You didn't even ask for something for yourself?
That's our girl! Always thinking about other dogs.
Look, Tag! The snow stopped!
That means we can get going.
Thanks for the cider.
It was just what we needed.
And thank you for saving Sniffsmas.
It means so much to our family.
And Merry Sniffsmas, Taylee.
I hope it's your best one ever!
I hike so much better with warm cider in my belly.
Let's go rescue Sandra Paws!
I know, so we can get your Racer.
It's not about that anymore, Scooch.
We're doing this for Taylee.
And for all the dogs that want to celebrate the holiday together.
Wow, I'm impressed, Tag.
Of course, my new Racer would be pretty sweet, too. Onward!
Beans! I can't sleep with those lights in my eyes!
Hi, Sandra Paws...
And your snoring isn't helping either.
I'm Beans!
Pah un-plug.
That's more like it.
We made it to the peak. But... where is Sandra Paws?
Hold on! I'm picking up the scent.
Cinnamon jerky!
That's Sandra Paws' favourite. That way!
That's her sleigh!
Hello?
Oh, hi there!
Sandra Paws!
Scooch, it's really her!
What a Sniffsmas!
The blizzard made my sleigh engine blow out,
and next thing I knew, I was crash-landing on this mountain.
I've been trying to fix my sleigh all night, but all I have are toys.
And this hammer is not doing it.
Not to worry, Sandra Paws!
We're here to help. Right, buddy?
Thanks, Tag and Scooch!
Wait, how did you know our--?
Your name? I'm Sandra Paws.
I know everything.
Well, you must also know I'm a fix-it dog.
Mind if I give it a shot?
Be my guest.
-Squeaky hammer? -No, thanks.
I brought my own tools.
Isn't that right, Scooch?
Scooch, just say something.
Hi, Sandra Paws! I can't believe I finally get to meet you!
Well, that was something.
Hi, Scooch! I got your letter.
And yes, I'd love to meet you.
So, Merry Sniffsmas!
I brought these cookies for you. And milk.
And I'd love your paw-tograph on this stocking.
And is it okay if we take a selfie?
No.
We can take a bunch of selfies!
Bad news, Sandra Paws.
The engine? It's busted.
As in, "Sniffsmas is cancelled" kind of busted?
Yup. I'm sorry, Sandra Paws.
We really thought we could save Sniffsmas.
I get why you kids are always on the nice list.
You really care. And you did your best.
Oh, Tag, I have something for you.
The Sam Whippet Racer 6000!
With the turbo engine! I can't believe I'm holding it in my--
Yes that's it!
Really, Tag? You're gonna play with your toy now?
I'm not gonna play with it.
You're going to break it?
Even I didn't see that coming and I know everything.
Yes!
This Racer has the strongest toy car engine in the world!
Even strong enough to power...
a sleigh!
Wow! I'm putting you both on the nice list forever!
You gave up your Racer. I'm really proud of you, Tag.
Thanks, Scooch. Some things are more important than a toy.
Well, there's still time to deliver the gifts.
Want a ride home?
Go, Sandra Paws, go!
Merry Sniffsmas!
Looks like another blizzard!
Don't worry, when we get close to Pawston,
the light of the tree will lead the way!
Frank? Frank!
There you are. Why are you sleeping on the ground?
And why is that tree turned off?
My eyes!
Beans, I can't sleep with that thing on.
There's the Pawston tree!
-There it is! -Where'd the light go?
It's on!
It's off.
-On! -Off!
And it stays off!
I don't get it, Frank.
What did Sniffsmas ever do to you?
I'll tell you what it did.
I'm on the naughty list!
You, Frank? But how?
And why?
When I was a kid, I used to do pranks and make trouble for dogs.
Wow! You think you know a guy.
Anyway, one year, I asked Sandra Paws for a squeaky cheeseburger.
But when I went to dig it up on Sniffsmas morning,
there was nothing there.
I watched as all the other puppies played with their toys.
So, I don't like trees.
Or gingerbread doghouses,
or jingle collars or ornaments.
I mean, what's so great about ornaments?
They're just ornaments.
Pah-hum--
Is that--? Is that my face?
It's both of our faces.
Because that's the ornament I made.
You made this, Beans,
while I was being such a grump about Sniffsmas?
Why?
'Cause that's the very best part of Sniffsmas.
Celebrating with the dogs you care about the most.
And you're my best friend, Frank.
I don't see a light anywhere!
Sorry, kids! I guess Sniffsmas is--
Back on!
We've got a direct path to Pawston!
So that's what the big tree looks like all lit up.
And somehow it feels like it's shining a little brighter this year.
It really is magical, Beans. Merry Sniffsmas, old friend.
Pawston. It's good to be back.
Hey, guys.
Is that--? Are you--?
He's a-- He's a big fan.
Listen, Sandra Paws--
No need to apologise, Frank. Sure, you did some naughty things.
But you did the right thing tonight.
-How did you--? -I'm Sandra Paws. I know everything.
And I'm taking you off the naughty list.
-Really? -Well, for now.
But don't forget...
I'm always watching.
And thanks, you two, for saving my tail tonight.
Come on, I'll get you home to bed. I have lots of gifts to bury!
Hi, Sandra Paws! I'm Beans!
Too late, buddy. She just left.
The squeaky cheeseburger I asked for when I was a kid!
Yes! It's nice to be nice!
Hey, Tag.
Did we meet Sandra Paws last night,
or was that just a really great dream?
Really happened.
Yes! I got what I asked for.
But I'm sorry you didn't get a gift this year.
This is my gift, Scooch.
Everybody celebrating together.
And happy first Pawston Sniffsmas to you, pal.
Thanks, Tag.
Tag? I think you might want to dig that up.
The Sam Whippet Racer 6000?
How did that happen?
The magic of Sniffsmas. That's how.
Merry Sniffsmas!
