101 Dalmatian Street centers around a large family of 99 Dalmatian puppies whose names begin with the letter "D", and their parents, Doug and Delilah, the latter of whom is a great-great granddaughter of Pongo and Perdita.[8] They often leave the eldest siblings, Dylan and Dolly, in charge while they are busy at work. The dalmatians live by themselves at 101 Dalmatian Street, located in Camden Town, London in the 21st century,[3][7] with no human supervision as their owner Dodie Smith, an eccentric billionaire, left them her house and went to live on an island.[8]
101 Dalmatian Street is based on a pitch by Anttu Harlin and Joonas Utti of Finland's Gigglebug Entertainment to Disney's original animation team in London. The team developed the plot with Passion Animation Studios, which produces the series.[6] Animation on the episodes was done by Atomic Cartoons, a Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada-based studio,[7][17] while a number of shorts starring the characters were produced by Gigglebug. All of the episodes and shorts together are animated with the Toon Boom Animation software. While the show was produced digitally, the characters are designed with a hand-drawn outline, looking reminiscent to the original xerography look of the film.[18] The creators claimed at the Annecy International Animated Film Festival that they purposefully never watched the direct-to-video sequel, live-actionmovies or the original series, and only watched the original movie. They often had to cheat when it came down to keeping up with 99 dogs, so there are some shots where the number of puppies go way beyond 101.[8]
Miklos Weigert serves as the chief director of the series, with Maria O'Loughlin as the head writer and Cara Speller as the executive producer.[3] The series had 26 episodes ordered.[1]
While cleaning the house after the pups made a mess, Dylan notices about his next-door neighbour Clarissa having a human doing chores, and he wishes that he had a human "pet" to do all of his chores for him. Dizzy and Dee Dee overhear, and decide to bring him one of whom they nicknamed "Mr. Fuzzy". They take him to 101 Dalmatian Street, much to Dylan's surprise as he tries to get him out of the house. He eventually warms up to the human and sees this as an opportunity to train him to do chores, but to no avail. The commotion from Mr. Fuzzy wakes Doug up, who discovers Dylan let a human into the house and he immediately lectures him. Later, after making a bigger mess of the household, Dylan follows his father's advice and brings him back "with his own kind". He lures Mr. Fuzzy outside by stealing his phone and bringing it to the park, where the human meets a vendor from a dating app he was using and the two look into each other's eyes.
Doug and Delilah are getting prepared for "Boom Night" by locking the house, and putting earmuffs on their children. They tell Dylan and Dolly to keep the pups safe as they head off to work. Dylan assists that he's in charge and commands the puppies to stay inside the house, but Dolly doesn't take him seriously and decides to hang out on the barge. Dorothy notices that Dolly left the door open as she left and follows her. When Dylan discovers that she's missing, he decides to leave the house to find her as Dolly arrives at the barge. Dylan finds Dolly and later spot Dorothy at the top of a building without any earmuffs. They attempt to save her by running up their building, but Dolly gets stuck in the entry to the top of the building. After she calls out a trigger word ("ball"), the onslaught of puppies is enough to break her free. When all the puppies land on the top, they realize that Boom Night isn't as bad as they thought as they are in awe at the fireworks, which was the source of the booming.
Note: When this episode aired, "Boom Night" was shown first before "Dog's Best Friend". Later airings corrected this error.
Dylan and Dolly are fighting over whose puppy-sitting style is better. At Doug's suggestion, they decide to hold an election to see who should be the top dog. While the voting is close, the puppies prefer the incredibly inept Diesel who only seems interested in digging. Dylan stays in his treehouse despite Dante's warning of danger and Dolly tries feeding ideas into Diesel, but he instead digs and hits a water valve. Dolly gets Dylan to get the puppies to all work together to drain out the house and clean it up with Dolly admitting that rules should be put in place and Dylan admitting that he uses too many, and the two of them agreeing that both deserve to be top dog.

Hunter attacks the family and captures Dante, who welcomes "doomsday.” However, he freaks when it is revealed that Hunter can understand the dogs. Dolly and Dylan rescue him and attack Hunter and Cuddles. During the battle, Dylan realizes that Hunter has a dog-like personality when it's activated. They defeat Hunter and Dylan apologizes for doubting Dante, who warns them that Hunter will return.
Continuing from "Dante's Inferno", the family begins to prep for Hunter's return. Dylan, feeling that their previous encounter was all his fault, takes the lead in protecting his siblings as Hunter tries and fails to capture them in increasingly ridiculous situations. Doug and Delilah prepare a bus to transport them to the country while they go to work. However, Hunter takes over the bus and tries to capture the puppies. Dylan once again exploits his dog mannerisms and gets rid of him and rescues his siblings. Hunter finds himself in an ally as he is approached by his great aunt Cruella De Vil.
Part 1: Following the events of "Better the De Vil You Know", the dalmatians relax knowing that Hunter is no longer a threat. However, they are shocked to find that Cruella De Vil has moved in next door. Doug and Delilah tell Dylan and Dolly about their family history with Cruella and how she plans to kill them and turn them into fur coats. Cruella and Hunter proceed to perform many tactics to weaken the dalmatians' defenses and starve them out. At Dylan's indirect suggestion, Diesel ends up digging a tunnel all the way to the park. However, the De Vils catch onto their scheme by accident and attack them from both fronts using Dizzy and Dee Dee's childlike innocence. The dalmatians escape to the park, only to be captured by Cruella's hired goons and entrapped in a shipping container to be flown away by helicopter. Doug and Delilah try to fend off Cruella who instead captures the two of them.
Part 2: Clarissa, witnessing the events, hops on behind Cruella's car. At the park, the Canal Crew hop onto the shipping container as it is being carried away. Dylan and Dolly manage to evade being captured and hop onto Pearl and proceed to chase the De Vils through the streets of London. At the docks, Hunter realizes that Cruella plans to kill the puppies for their fur and is locked up with the rest of the family in the container. In the ship Cruella reveals Delilah and Doug her plan. Meanwhile, in the container Hunter explains to the rest of the family how he suffered for six months in the container and Cruella never called him once. Upon arriving at the docks with Pearl, the ship takes off with Clarissa telling Dylan and Dolly that their family is on it, and Pearl tosses them onto it and together with the Canal Crew fight off Cruella and her goons to free their family before they are skinned in an elaborate machine. During this, Hunter, upon having freed himself and the puppies from cages, protects Dorothy, and finally stands up for himself before making Cruella fall into the machine. The dalmatians save her just in time for the police to arrive after being notified by a citizen. As Cruella is taken away, Hunter is forgiven, and the series concludes with the Dalmatians and their friends taking a bus back home.

Dylan is worried about this and follows Diesel's trail to clean up all of the dirt before cleaning Diesel himself. Diesel digs a hole, however, to become dirty again. Dylan gets worried again and Diesel (being his dirty usual self again) comes out of a hole. Dylan then tries to get Diesel to make him clean again (in a Whack-A-Mole-like style). Dylan then gets dizzy and falls asleep. In his dream, he sees a room with many holes in it. Diesel is seen popping around the room. Dylan gets scared, confused and sees the room moving with even more holes, clones of Diesel popping around in addition. The room turns into a giant Diesel head that licks Dylan as the room fills with water. When the dream sequence is over, Diesel (as his normal self) licks Dylan to wake him up. When he wakes up, he is very surprised by how clean the area is, until he accidentally spills a bucket of water. However, Dylan then changes his mind about the room being clean when Diesel shakes himself and both make the area messy again.

Dolly, Roxy and Snowball were dancing to the music, until Roxy accidentally trips. All of the dogs recorded a video on their moves, Dolly and Roxy find it funny but Snowball hates how the video turned out. Snowball would teach dancing lessons to Dolly and Roxy by showing off different dance moves in various music genres. Most of these lessons unfortunately failed. When the characters all did a statue together, Roxy falls again. As a result, Snowball starts going crazy by barking out the word "nie" (meaning "no" in Polish and Slovakian) while jumping in different directions. Dolly and Roxy both thought of the jumping as a dance, so they turn on the radio and start jumping around like Snowball. The dance attempt surprisingly worked. As all three characters watch the video with all of them doing the same dance move, each of them liked how the video turned out, especially Snowball, who thought that Roxy is perfectly dancing without any accidents.
