All Five ‘Air Bud’ Movies Are Finally Coming to Streaming

It’s been pretty ruff out there for Air Bud fans. Options for watching the signature late ’90s / early 2000s kid series were as empty as a food bowl at the end of a long day. Oh sure, you could watch one of the five Air Buddies films (including the obvious highlight of the franchise, Spooky Buddies) or you could watch one of the three Santa Paws films (even the dregs of the lot, Santa Paws: The Legend For Curly’s Gold) but if you wanted to go with the pristine classic O.G. Air Bud or its four similarly themed films about a preternaturally talented dog athlete you were out of luck.

UNTIL NOW.

At last, the full Air Buddy quintet will begin streaming on Disney+.  Every Air Bud movie will begin streaming there in a matter of days.
