Can you give some headcanons for the series?

SURE! Let's see, I got a bunch of 'em.

Friendly reminder to whoever will read this, THESE ARE JUST HEADCANONS, don't take them as facts, omg, this is just my personal creativity and imagination playing around here

1- The dogs live a lot longer than what it would be "usual" considering the difference between human and dog ages. If we'd take actual dog age into account in this show, both Rubble and Zuma would be the first ones to die of old age in like, 4 years at least. I refuse that. For me, the dogs in this universe not only are able to speak and learn stuff that animals normally don't, but also will live up to like, 30 or 40 years old. Mixed breeds with more resistance to diseases and stuff might reach the 50s.

2- Marshall has bad genetics due to being result from extreme in-breeding at an illegal facility (y'know like what they call a puppy mill). He was born without any strength on his rear body, plus the blue eyes which are ACTUALLY a gene that's related to making Dalmatians have less spots and hearing loss, which can happen from birth or gradually lose their hearing as they grow up. The facility was busted in by police and the dogs were rescued, treated, and put up for adoption. Ryder saw how that clumsy puppy still persisted on getting up and trying to keep up with the others and chose him. It took them some long time of physiotherapy but Marshall's attitude and optimism, along with the support from Ryder and the other pups, got him where he is nowadays: Able to walk, run, jump and perform his rescue duties almost perfectly, to the point he's one of the fastest (if not the fastest) pups (ok this part about his speed is canon, he IS one of the fastest pups), even if he still trips sometimes - it's just how he is and they all love and support him.

3- Skye hates being the smallest pup because she knows she won't grow as much as the others anyway. She's a mix of two naturally small breeds. So whenever they notice one of them is growing a bit more and it's "taking longer" for her, it's just because she grows so much slower and just a bit, to the point it's nearly impossible to notice.

4- Zuma descends from a breed of Merpups who have long ago left the underwater to live on land. They've mixed with Labradors who lived around and the story of their origins has been lost to time, as their descendants think it's just a legend. Zuma always believed it to be real and that's why he waited to see a Merpup that first time. To become a Merpup for one night was literally a dream come true, not only for him loving water but also for it felt like "coming home" for him.

5- Mr. Porter is secretly tasked with watching out for Ryder, that's why he's always helping with providing things for the pups, like bringing/preparing food and snacks for them.

That's what I'll get out for now XD Hope you like these!

philipb12 @loominggaia For these Rangers, IT'S FAULT OF THIS DAMN AUTOCORRECT! I meant DANGERS OF USING MAGIC!

--

I see! Yes, magic can be incredibly dangerous when it's wielded by malicious people, or when spells are cast by inexperienced mages. People throughout history have used magic to commit terrible atrocities against their fellow people.

Magic is illogical by nature, meaning it can do anything it wants to do, whether it makes sense or not. A mage can do everything 100% correctly, but the spell may still fail because magic didn't want to cooperate. Magic can be highly unpredictable in this way.

It's said that magic has a mind of its own, and it does not like to be disrespected. Mages who respect magic and its power will cast more successful spells, while mages who try to pull a bunch of cheesy exploits against nature are often punished with failure. Spells can fail in catastrophic and very unexpected ways.

Mages can also suffer from a condition called arcane burnout. This happens when a mage casts spells that are too powerful for them. Their energy reserves run too low, which causes them to get sick or pass out. In severe cases, they may suffer permanent organ damage or even death.
