Spot
"The name's Pullet Marlow, Private Chick. Mystery is my middle name."
Voiced by: Tara Strong
Spot Chicken is a spotted chicken who wants to become a Dalmatian and one of main protagonists of 101 Dalmatians: The Series. She is best friends with Lucky, Rolly, and Cadpig.
- Afraid of Needles: She faints when she hears the puppies are going to get vaccinated in "Spots and Shots"
- Butt-Monkey: Spot is usually the one who gets roughed up the most throughout their misadventures and often has the most grueling jobs and various creatures constantly attempt to eat her.
- Celibate Hero: Is the only one of the four main characters to never get a love interest.
- Does This Remind You of Anything?: One Spot-centric episode centers around her desire to be a dog as opposed to a chicken. This greatly offends her mother who tries to force Spot to engage in typical chicken activities like egg-sitting. Then there's her self-description as a "dog in a chicken's body".
- Feather Fingers
- Metaphorgotten: As Pullet Marlow, Spot attempts to make clever metaphors of the situation, but often fails at it. To quote Cadpig, she's "metaphorically challenged".
- Only Sane Man: Usually when the pups set up one of their wacky schemes, Spot is usually the voice of reason as she is more aware of the dangers and consequences to come out of their plan.
- Private Eye Monologue: Spot naturally adopts this practice when she dons her private investigator persona Pullet Marlow. This is lampshaded in "K for Kibble" when Swamp Rat questions part of it and Spot comments it's intended to be an inner monologue.
- The Smart Girl: Spot is known to be the brains amongst the Dalmatians, being able to calculate math problems and have a rough understanding for science.
- True Art Is Incomprehensible: "The Artist Formerly Known as Spot" centers around Spot creating what are seen as "masterpieces" by Cruella's art appreciator when it's really just her brushing her feathers in random patterns. True to the trope, every attendee of the gallery devoted to Spot's pieces comment at great length about the artistic styles at work.
- Verbal Tic: Sometimes clucks on her "B" consonants.
- With Friends Like These...: At times, Spot is treated as the Butt-Monkey even among the three pups. But it is made clear that they will go to great lengths to help her, and she'd return the favor.
Mooch
"You're mouse meat, Midget Mutt!"
Voiced by: Danny Cooksey
Mooch is Lucky's main rival, aside from Tripod. He is probably only second to Cruella on Lucky's list of most hated enemies.
- Big Ol' Unibrow: He has a purple unibrow to emphasize his crankiness and meanness.
- The Bully: He's this for the four protagonists and The farm in general.
- Expy: He's a dog version of Roger Klotz.
- Heel–Face Turn: Implied in "My Fair Moochie" as it's Mooch's final main episode appearance and it's implied that he has been "cured" by Cadpig.
- Irony: Wants to preserve his image as a "cool" dog, hangs out with a moron and a pup with poor bladder control.
- Jerkass: Mean, selfish, and a bully.
- Not Me This Time: "Twelve Angry Pups" features most of the barnyard accusing Mooch of stealing their stuff. His general reputation and antagonism doesn't help his plea of innocence. Turns out he was right as it was Lt. Pug stealing their stuff for a bunker.
Tripod
"No pain, no gain."
Voiced by: Toran Caudell
Tripod is a Dalmatian puppy and Lucky's main rival in the Bark Brigade.
- The Ace: Is quite athletic, can show up Lucky in many competitions, and was once seen lifting a bale of hay with his one foreleg.
- Character Development: He starts out as a cocky, kiss-up to Lt. Pug. In "Lucky All-Star", these traits start to fade. It seems zig-zagged throughout the series, but this is mainly due to the mess-up with the airing order.
- Determinator: When it comes to winning challenges and contests, Tripod is quite determined. This has extended to him practicing for a bone-digging contest by digging a massive number of huge holes in a short matter of time.
- Handicapped Badass: He's the most athletic of the pups...and he only has three legs.
- Hypocritical Humor: Tripod is chosen to be the neutral judge of the episode "Walk a Mile in my Tracks" where Lt. Pug is challenged to work through Spot's mother's daily routine. Despite repeatedly emphasizing his impartial status, he later disguises himself as a koala that attacks Spot so that her mother will give Pug his job back. His reason? So he can remain second-in-command.
- Meaningful Name: His name means "three feet".
- Named After the Injury: Only has three legs.
- The Rival: To Lucky.
- Satellite Character: Almost all of his appearances involve Lieutenant Pug and the Bark Brigade.
Scorch
"Thank you."
Voiced by: Frank Welker
Scorch is Cruella's sly, sneaky, mean, greedy, hungry, feisty and cunning pet ferret. He serves as one of the main antagonists in 101 Dalmatians: The Series.
- Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: For all the abuse he receives from Cruella, they really do care about one another.
- Failure Is the Only Option: His frequent attempts at eating Spot.
- Jerkass: What did you expect from Cruella's pet?
- Theme Naming: His name is a synonym for "burn", fitting well with Cruella's devilish theme.
- The Unintelligible: Scorch holds the distinction of being the one major animal character that doesn't speak in English, but rather in devious chatter.
Lieutenant Pug
"Today's survival mission is one that you'll remember for the rest of your dog days!"
Voiced by: Jeff Bennett
Lt. Pug is the commanding officer in charge of the Bark Brigade, though this is due to the fact that the other available officers capable of running the Bark Brigade have reasons that prevent them from doing the job.
- A Day in the Limelight: In the episode "Walk a Mile in My Tracks".
- Freudian Excuse: At least some of his aggressive and domineering behavior could be attributed to how he was horribly mistreated and picked on as a pup by Persian Pete. This is also likely the source of his hatred and paranoia of cats.
- Fantastic Racism: Hates cats with a passion, suspects the worst of them, and treats Sgt. Tibbs with a level of disdain and disrespect.
- Fatal Flaw: Lt. Pug does have one innate flaw that jeopardizes his future in the Bark Brigade and his chance for advancement: he has an innate fear of cats.
- Gonk: Among the dogs.
- Irony: The one episode where he entertained the possibility of giving up his paranoia of cats is the one where a cat invasion took place.
- Jerkass: A harsh and domineering attitude.
- The Napoleon: Spectacularly demonstrated in the episode "Full Metal Pullet" when he repeatedly smacks his head against a stump and gets mad at Sergeant Tibs for helping him get atop it.
- The Neidermeyer: While the Bark Brigade isn't an official military group, he fits the role quite well given the (completely justified) contempt he receives from his "cadets".
- Shell-Shocked Veteran: He'll flip out over crazy ideas and is constantly paranoid of cats making their move.
Ed Pig
"I'm the mayor, and I have passed a law stating that no whistling is allowed on this here farm!"
Voiced by: Jim Cummings
Mayor Ed Pig is the mayor of the Dearly Farm, which is due to the fact that nobody else has expressed interest in becoming mayor, so whenever Election Day rolls around, he is usually the only animal on the ballot.
- Amazing Technicolor Wildlife: A blue pig.
- Big Eater: Comes with being a pig.
- Corrupt Politician: The "mayor" of the farm... who manipulates and cheats the others to get what he wants. That said, he never crosses over into outright villainy because of it, and when Lucky confesses to running for mayor on a platform of promises he couldn't keep, Ed comforts him and tells Lucky his honesty is admirable.
- Doting Parent: To Dumpling.
- Pink Girl, Blue Boy: He's the Blue Boy to Dumpling's Pink Girl.
Dumpling
"You saved my life again!"
Voiced by: Christine Cavanaugh
Dumpling is Mayor Ed Pig's daughter, though since her father is the mayor of the Dearly Farm, she is used to having things always go her way.
- Abhorrent Admirer: Poor Lucky...
- Accessory-Wearing Cartoon Animal: Wears a blue bow on her head.
- Big Eater: Like father, like daughter.
- Character Catchphrase: "Dad-dy!"
- Daddy's Girl: She's pretty devoted to her father.
- Hair-Trigger Temper: It doesn't take much to get her angry.
- Interspecies Romance: She has a crush on Lucky (And was briefly interested in Rolly).
- Morality Pet: The only thing that Mayor Ed Pig loves more than his position as mayor is his daughter, Dumpling.
- Pink Girl, Blue Boy: She's the Pink Girl to Ed's Blue Boy.
