The firefighter and police pups were greeted by hundreds of their biggest fans over the course of the three-hour event at Bunnings Warehouse, which also included face-painting and balloons.
Daily Liberal photographer Belinda Soole was on hand to capture some of the cute chaos before Marshall and Chase left on the long trip back to Adventure Bay.
Kellie Bennett took her children Harrison (three), Charlotte (one) and Sienna (eight) along, and said “they loved it”.
“It was really good of Bunnings to bring Paw Patrol to town for the kids,” she said.
“The staff were very polite. They also had the popcorn there and the had Puka the Clown with dog balloons and face-painting, so it kept the kids entertained, and there was a jumping castle outside.
“They love the cartoon, my son is really into them, and my youngest daughter Charlotte … the kids love them so I had no hesitation at all in taking them.”
The visit has been likened to The Beatles, with gridlock in the car park outside and some families lining up for hours.
