Disney Pixar celebrates International Dog Day with a new trailer for Dug Days, a family-friendly Up spin-off series consisting of five new shorts directed by Up writer and co-director Bob Peterson.
The show is set in a quiet suburban neighborhood and features a familiar cast of characters including grandpa Carl, the wide-eyed boy-scout Russell, the derpy talking golden retriever Dug, and an elusive squirrel. “Dug is pure of heart — he’s a good soul. I think people enjoy that part of Dug,” said Peterson in a press release. “Plus, people love their dogs. We’ve gone to great lengths to include truth in dog behavior, so they see their own dogs in Dug.”
The entire five-episode series will debut on September 1 on Disney+. Check out the trailer above.
