    • Goofs
      During the show, one of the tubas was white fiberglass. This show appears to be set in 1920s or 30s. They did not have fiberglass musical instruments then. They also did not do rap music.

    A follow-up wasn't necessary
    '12 Dogs of Christmas 2: The Great Puppy Rescue' is on a similar level as the preceding production, though I hold more issues with this one.

    Sequels are always less watchable when the cast changes, as it does here. It's an alright film, though has a real lack of dogs in it given the title/plot. A few of the characters were also pretty pointless.

    A follow-up wasn't necessary, especially given the seven year gap between the two.
