Air Bud

Air Bud, also known as Buddy, is the titular main protagonist of the Air Bud series. He plays a different sport in each film (basketball, football, soccer, baseball and volleyball, respectively). In the third film, he becomes the father of five puppies: Budderball, B-Dawg, Buddha, MudBud, and RoseBud, though none of them are given actual names until the first Air Buddies movie. Air Bud only appeared in the first two films of those series and was only mentioned in the third film.
