- ―Rubble
Rubble is the tritagonist of the Nick Jr. series PAW Patrol and the main protagonist of its spin-off series Rubble & Crew. He debuted in the show's first episode, "Pups Make a Splash". His job as a construction worker.
Biography[]
Rubble is an English Bulldog pup and the construction pup of the PAW Patrol. His main color is yellow. His truck looks like a bulldozer, modified with drills and other construction tools. In "Pups Get a Rubble", it is revealed that he is the youngest member of the PAW Patrol.
In "Pups Get a Rubble", before he joined the PAW Patrol, Rubble lived on his own, and it was hinted that he was a stray dog, which meant he had no home or family to take care of him. He met Ryder and the PAW Patrol when he was a little puppy after getting himself stuck on a tree branch hanging over the ocean and was rescued by Chase's net. After being fed, Rubble sneaked into Chase's vehicle before he deployed for a mission and later showed his digging skills while freeing Jake from a pile of snow boulders. Ryder later announced that they had found a home for him as the construction pup of the PAW Patrol.
Personality[]
Although he can appear rather tough, Rubble is the complete opposite. He tends to be a bit emotional, and he is very soft for small animals, especially kittens (evidenced in "Pups and the Kitty-tastrophe", among other episodes). He sometimes likes to call small animals cute names like "witty bitty kitty." He loves to laugh and is rather playful and innocent. He also has a big appetite, as seen in "Pups Save the Treats".
His two great loves are skateboarding and eating. While he is quick to crack jokes, he makes sure to stay serious when on a mission. His belly grumbles a lot.
He also tends to be superstitious as he frequently believes in spooky stuff such as ghosts or monsters and tends to disagree with Ryder's beliefs that they're not real. And most of the time when things are resolved, Rubble would usually make sarcastic comments.
In Rubble & Crew, he is the leader of the Crew when he moves to Builder Cove with his family and settles into their new home in the Bark Yard to build all the projects with the help of Mayor Goodway's sister, Mayor Greatway or the citizens in Builder Cove, and making safe ways to build after the disastrous results of their rival Speed Meister and Mr. McTurtle.
Appearance[]
Rubble is an English Bulldog puppy. He has brown fur with a beige belly that also covers most of his face and large chest with beige fur. He has bright brown eyes and a tiny tail that can barely be seen. His right ear is beige and has two brown spots, while his left ear is brown. An often overlooked detail on Rubble's face is that his whisker spots on the sides of his snout are asymmetrical, being that the whisker spots on the right side of his snout are slightly higher than the ones on his left. His gear is yellow and includes a yellow hardhat, which is typically used of safety in the construction business.
In Rubble & Crew, his default uniform is a similar but slightly modified version of the uniform he wears in the episodes "Ultimate Rescue: Pups Save a Runaway Stargazer" and "Ultimate Rescue: Pups Save Captain Gordy" from the main series.

Additionally, his eye color is a darker brown than he usually has in the original series.
Pup Tag[]
