I’m seeing lots of spots
Plenty of polka dots
Get those puppies
Can’t catch the furry flurry
Running in a blurry hurry
Get those puppies
101 Canines on the run
101 Them doggone dogs are fun
101 Without fail you’ll wind up chasing your tail
What’s the harm in ruffling some feathers on a funny farm
101 Life’s just a bed of roses
101 Best friends with cold wet noses
101 Through thick thin push and pull it’s 101 oh wonderful
Just tons of fun 101 Dalmatians!

Behind the Show: Production & Legacy
101 Dalmatians: The Series (1997–1998) was produced by Disney Television Animation and Jumbo Pictures. Following the massive success of the 1996 live-action remake, the series shifted the setting to the Dearly Farm, focusing on the trio of Lucky, Rolly, and Cadpig, along with their chicken friend, Spot.
The series is notable for its prolific output, producing 65 episodes in just six months. The music was a collaborative effort; while the main theme was crafted by Randy Petersen, Kevin Quinn, and Tim Heintz, the series score was handled by Mark Watters and Dan Sawyer. The show remains a beloved part of Disney’s late-90s “One Saturday Morning” lineup, remembered for its slapstick humor and distinct art style.
