Voiced by Celestina Harris (Lioness), Doozie is Gabby’s adorable, dog-loving little sister is set to bring a fresh dynamic, relatable sibling fun, and plenty of “paw-some” moments to the beloved franchise with her loyal puppy pals Puggie and CreamPup by her side. The reveal was timed to National Sisters Day.

Harris appeared virtually with Lockhart-Kraner on the Sunday, August 2 episode of Couple Things to talk about the news, with the actor telling hosts Shawn Johnson East and Andrew East that Doozie is “a very fun puppy-lover. She’s so energetic and creative and I would say she’s like me because I love having everything upbeat. I love just having fun. I love dogs! But Gabby has really inspired her to be the person she is because Gabby shows her throughout the episodes that its okay to fail, because you can keep on pursuing and keep on trying.”

In tandem with this announcement, DreamWorks Animation and Netflix released the official trailer for the upcoming 14th season of Gabby’s Dollhouse, featuring Doozie’s debut. The next chapter arrives on Monday, September 14 on Netflix.


Created and executive produced by Traci Paige Johnson (Blue’s Clues, Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood) and Jennifer Twomey (Blue’s Clues, Team Umizoomi), Gabby’s Dollhouse is a mixed-media series produced by DreamWorks Animation that unboxes a surprise before jumping into a fantastical animated world full of adorable cat characters that live inside Gabby’s dollhouse.

S14 Synopsis: Things are about to get pup-tastic! The dollhouse is filled with double the paws as Gabby’s little sister Doozie and her best puppy pal Puggie arrive for their first-ever cat and dog playdate.  From a dog ear unboxing to a cat-tastic kitchen collaboration with Cakey and CreamPup, Gabby and Doozie know that sisters are better together.

Long Live Imagination Hopscotch Experience


Over the weekend, as part of the Long Live Imagination campaign, a whimsical hopscotch experience took over Madison Square Park in New York City. For three days, a giant hopscotch path wound through the park's walkways, leading visitors to the playground. Open to all ages and free to the public, the activation turned the park into an imaginative play space, encouraging families to get outside, move, and connect through an outdoor adventure.

The activation will make its next stop at Netflix House Philadelphia at the King of Prussia mall from June 27 through July 5, and Netflix House Dallas at the Galleria Dallas mall from July 13-19.

Plus, Netflix House has more "Little Streamers" programming for kids and families this summer, including character meet-and-greets (find CoComelon Lane's JJ at Philadelphia's King of Prussia mall on June 27-28 and Galleria Dallas mall on June 18-19, and Sesame Street's Elmo at Galleria Dallas on June 18-19), a passport activity guide, and more arts and crafts events on the way.

Boosted by the box office success of its theatrical release, Gabby’s Dollhouse dominated Netflix in 2025 as the #1 kids’ original series worldwide and #4 original series overall. The brand also surpassed over a billion views on YouTube and generated 34 million visits on Roblox, complemented by the release of a new console video game, Gabby’s Dollhouse: Ready to Party, live stage shows and immersive retail experiences worldwide.

“The connection fans have with Gabby’s Dollhouse from across the globe is incredibly special,” said Rafa Macias, EVP Global Consumer Products & Games, Universal Products & Experiences. “Families everywhere are engaging with the brand across every touchpoint — playing, imagining and creating alongside Gabby. As we look to the future, we’re focused on expanding that world with playful, creative experiences that inspire imagination and delight fans through content and products as well as theme park and retail experiences.”

Gabby’s Dollhouse continues its strong momentum into 2026 with the release of new seasons, ensuring a steady pipeline of fresh content for its growing global audience. Season 13, which launched in March, quickly ranked as the #1 kids show in 29 countries and introduced Fairylandia, a new magical setting that expands the creative storytelling opportunities and product lines while staying true to the brand’s core identity.

Building on this success, 2026 will see an expanded slate of consumer products and retail initiatives, including new playsets, collectables, and lifestyle products inspired by Fairylandia, as well as strategic retail partnerships designed to deepen fan engagement across key markets. With its debut on the newly launched Netflix Playground app, Gabby’s Dollhouse joins other iconic characters in a new interactive experience featuring creativity-inspired activities that lets fans connect with Gabby and her kitty friends in fresh and meaningful ways.

This year will also mark the debut of an expanded presence in theme parks including the all-new Universal Kids Resort — a regional theme park specifically designed for families with young children coming to Frisco, Texas later this summer. Gabby and friends will be present in The Isle of Curiosity, which will serve as the gateway to the other themed lands at Universal Kids Resort. Gabby’s Cat-Tastic Dance Party! will allow kids and their families to boogie with Gabby. Cakey’s Cupcakes will serve up a variety of cupcakes in chocolate, vanilla and rainbow, while the Universal Kids Resort Café will be a colorful spot to fuel up whether it’s sitting down and relaxing or grabbing bites for the road. The flagship Universal Kids Resort Store will be the one-stop-shop for gearing up for the day or finding best-of-the best from each themed land and a variety of merch inspired by Gabby’s Dollhouse to dress the part for their meow-zing adventures ahead.

Looking ahead to 2027 and beyond, Gabby’s Dollhouse will continue to grow through new seasons and specials alongside enhanced gaming and live entertainment, and innovative creative and product strategies.

"We're building a world where kids can not only watch their favorite stories, they can step inside them and interact with their favorite characters," said John Derderian, Netflix Vice President of Animation Series + Kids & Family TV. "We're creating a seamless destination for discovery, learning, and play. Whether it's reuniting with Hank and the Trash Truck crew for new adventures or making a smoothie with Peppa Pig, watching and playing on Netflix can be the fun and easiest part of every family's day."

Netflix has grown to become the premiere destination for kids and preschool titles. Between 2023 and 2025, the four most-watched shows and six out of the top 10 titles were from the kids' genre, making it the #2 genre on Netflix. In the second half of 2025, these stories entertained and enlightened viewers - including Gabby's Dollhouse, Ms. Rachel, In Your Dreams, The Creature Cases, Trash Truck, Mark Rober's CrunchLabs Season 1 and Sesame Street: Volume 1. By expanding these beloved worlds, we're creating a space for big adventures that encourage curiosity and discovery, engaging young audiences at every stage of development.

The app launched Monday, April 6 in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, the Philippines and New Zealand, and will launch throughout the rest of the world on Tuesday, April 28, the Netflix Playground app is designed for children ages 8 and under and is included with all memberships. The app has no ads, in-app purchases or extra fees.


Netflix Playground: Everything Parents Need to Know

A welcoming world to play and explore, with favorite characters from Dr. Seuss, Peppa Pig, and more!

Imagine a world where your kids can step inside their favorite stories and interact with their best-loved characters in entirely new ways. Netflix Playground is an all-in-one app designed for exactly that — bringing the worlds of Sesame Street, Dr. Seuss, Peppa Pig, StoryBots, and Bad Dinosaurs to life through fun, enriching, and age-appropriate activities.

As parents, we know the find is only half the battle; too often, a great digital discovery is ruined by unexpected ads, hidden fees, or unwanted in-app content. Netflix has made it easier to say “yes” to playtime by putting these premium experiences all in one place — with no in-app purchases, no additional fees, and zero ads. Now get ready to play and explore the world of Netflix Playground!

What is Netflix Playground?

Netflix Playground is your destination for an ever-growing library of instantly playable games for kids aged 8 and younger, available exclusively to Netflix members. The mobile app is full of enriching experiences designed to spark creativity, laughter, and fun with your kids’ favorite characters — all ad-free with no in-app purchases or extra costs. 

Getting started is a breeze. Just download the app to your smartphone or tablet, sign in, and you’ll find a bunch of games and activities ready to go. You’ll see familiar faces from Dr. Seuss’s Horton!, Peppa Pig, Bad Dinosaurs, Sesame Street, and more. Netflix Playground keeps our growing catalog of games in one place, giving you more peace of mind and your kids more enjoyable time to play. What’s more, everything is playable offline, so your kids can continue to enjoy the fun on long airplane rides or grocery trips.

How do I use Netflix Playground?

Using Netflix Playground is easy. All you have to do is find it on the Apple App Store or Google Play, download it to your smartphone or tablet, and sign in to your Netflix account. From there, you’ll find games and activities in a familiar interface, arranged by the familiar characters your kids know and love.

Managing installed games is a cinch, too. In Settings, a graph shows how much storage the games occupy on your device, and deleting games your kids aren’t playing anymore only takes a tap. 

What characters are featured in Netflix Playground?

Netflix Playground is a growing world, and we’re kicking things off with a welcoming crew of your kids’ absolute favorite characters. We’ll be continually adding more familiar faces and new friends to the app, but at launch, your little ones can jump right in and spend time with:

Dr. Seuss’s Horton!

Welcome to the jungle! Horton’s got fun and games that encourage creativity through interactive cause-and-effect play. 

Bad Dinosaurs

Prehistoric puzzles, sticker scenes, music, and memory games abound with Janet and her brood of tiny thunderlizards.

Sesame Street

It’s always a sunny day on Sesame Street, and the activities here encourage pattern recognition, object recognition, and free-form play.

Dr. Seuss’s The Sneetches

Your kids will join Stella Sneetch on an imaginative adventure through Starbelly and Moonbelly Villages via creative play activities like the Shape Printer and Vehicle Builder, which encourage imaginative design and pattern recognition.

Play, count, care for guinea pigs, decorate cakes, and a whole lot more with Peppa and the rest of her Peppatown crew.

These inquisitive creatures are here to help your kids hone their memory, improve pattern recognition, develop budding musical skills, and more. 

Be on the lookout for more throughout the year, including Gabby’s Dollhouse, KPop Demon Hunters, PJ Masks, My Little Pony, and PAW Patrol.
