PAW patrol toys are top of the toy lists for kids across the globe, and have been for the past few years.
As the Nickelodeon show has increased in popularity, so has the demand for Paw Patrol toys, and even a Paw Patrol advent calendar to make the countdown to Christmas all the more fun.

What is Paw Patrol?
Paw Patrol first premiered on Nickelodeon back in 2013, and over the last decade the TV series has expanded its storylines, as well as into the toys and trinkets available to shop.
The animated show focuses on a bunch of pups, as well as their human Ryder, who make sure all is well in the fictional city of Adventure Bay (and its surrounding areas).
There are 11 characters in the show, each one called upon from their doghouses to help in their pupmobiles.
The show has become the biggest title in children's entertainment, reportedly becoming more popular among toddlers than Mickey Mouse, Frozen and Elmo.
Where to buy the Paw Patrol 2023 advent calendar

Behind the windows of this year's Paw Patrol advent calendar are pups, animal pals and festive accessories for them all.
This year's festive bundle contains 24 doors, which means 24 treats – that's one for every day in the run up to Christmas Day.

The treats include seven PAW Patrol pup figures, eight Animal Friends figures, as well as nine accessories, so it's a great way to entertain the children in your life this Christmas.
The calendar usually retails for £24.99, which we think is a reasonable figure for an advent calendar, but it is currently reduced to £18.49 at select retailers, such as Smyths.
Using the calendar packaging the lucky recipient can create their own Christmas adventures and, should a bigger set arrive from Santa, these can all be incorporated into it.
The calendar is available from a range of retailers, including Boots, Amazon and Smyths. It's already out of stock at a few sites, so we'd recommend buying it while you can!
