Marshall is a Dalmatian puppy and one of the seven main protagonists in the TV series PAW Patrol. He is the 3rd member of the PAW Patrol and the team's fire pup, as well as the medic pup (as of "Pups Save Jake"). His primary purpose is to check for fires and extinguish them, and to use his ladder to rescue animals from high places. His secondary purpose, as a medic, is to use his X-Ray screen to check people for any broken bones or injuries, and to attend to them if needed (even though he tends to use bandages most of the time) or find out who is inside the suit or indoors.

Whether it’s a BBQ flare-up or a kitten stuck up a tree, Marshall is always up for a challenge and is often the first pup on the scene.

PAW Patrol.com Description
Marshall is the team’s brave firedog – an excitable, all-action, six-year-old Dalmatian pup. He’s always ready to roll, sometimes literally as he often loses his balance and takes a tumble. He may be clumsy but he and his pup pals laugh off any stumble or spill. At the end of the day, or let's say even by mid to late morning, Marshall is a loveable and loyal friend who will always help those in need!

Marshall is the team’s brave firedog – an excitable, all-action, six-year-old Dalmatian pup. He’s always ready to roll, but sometimes he gets too excited and can be a little clumsy.
Personality
In the PAW Patrol, Marshall is usually the comic relief of the group, as he tends to be goofy and clumsy. He is quite accident-prone and gets a lot of slapstick injuries, crashing into things such as the pups at the Lookout elevator, falling off his ladder and getting things stuck on his head. He is very excitable, a bit air-headed, and not particularly well-coordinated. He can be immature sometimes. When he is excited, he usually howls. However, when it comes to doing Pup-Fu, he is quite agile and able to walk on two. He tends to make jokes (most often puns) when he collides into the other pups in the elevator, with mixed reception.
Despite his clumsiness, Marshall is a loyal, competent and brave member of the PAW Patrol and has helped Ryder and the other pups in several missions. Marshall is also very friendly and sweet, especially to birds (e.g. Fuzzy). He and Chase are best friends and can be playfully competitive with each other. He may unintentionally spray Rocky with his water cannons, but he always apologizes for it afterwards. He's very earnest in helping people, though he can be awkward. He is good with animals. Aside from the aforementioned birds, he tends to get along with monkeys and cows. He has a big heart and is determined to never let his friends down.
If his clumsiness or impulse causes an accident or more work for others, he will try his best to make it right. This is shown in "Pups Chill Out", when he eats all the Puppy Pops, he helps complete the mission, at the end.
He can feel insecure on occasion, fearing that he may mess things up. In "Pups Save a Friend", he felt ashamed after unintentionally making Mr. Porter spill his produce and causing Mayor Goodway and Chickaletta to crash their scooter. He then thought that he was ruining his friends' fun with his clumsiness and temporarily took a break from the PAW Patrol. They later reassured him that that's not the case, and he was quite relieved, proving that he cares about them and is sensitive to their opinions. In spite of his insecurities, though, he always pulls through in the end, showing his determination.
In "Ready Race Rescue", he idolizes The Whoosh.
Appearance
Marshall is a Dalmatian puppy. He has spotted white fur covering his body and bright blue eyes. During missions, Marshall typically wears a firefighter helmet and a red vest. He also wears a red Pup pack, which features a water cannon (acting as a fire hose). When he wears his EMT uniform, Marshall wears a red cap with a yellow trim (replacing his firefighter helmet), and his Pup Pack contains medical supplies such as bandages and a thermometer (in place of the water cannon).
In "PAW Patrol: The Movie", Marshall's standard uniform was given a visual redesign, with his uniform being composed of a porous and durable fireproof material. Armored plating is also present on the design, and he features multiple reflector bands on his uniform. Marshall also has a different pup pack featuring equipment such as an axe, and his visor loses it's frame while gaining yellow tinted glass. Much like all of the pups sans Chase, Marshall's movie uniform features sleeves.
Attires
Here is a gallery of Marshall's attires throughout the series.
Equipment and Gadgets
Pup Tag
Like all of the PAW Patrol pups, Marshall has his own personalized pup tag which he uses to communicate with Ryder and the other PAW Patrol pups. His is customized with a red background and a fire symbol to represent his job of taking out fires. When in use, the pup tag flashes its light. The pup tag also has a special mechanism, which allows the PAW Patrol pups to make video calls to Ryder's Pup Pad. His Mighty Pups one is similar to his original except the tips of the flames are longer.
Firefighter Pup Pack
Marshall has his own high-tech pup pack which he uses during missions. Marshall's pup pack can transform into a water cannon, which Marshall primarily uses to fight fires. The source of water that the cannon uses comes from the tanks that are installed on the sides of the pup pack. Marshall's firefighter's hat also has a retractable visor capability.
Medical Pup Pack
When performing his duties as a medic pup, his medical pup pack carries an X-ray screen, a thermometer, and compartments that may deploy a roll of bandages or a crutch - depending on Marshall's diagnosis of the illness or injury. He is equipped to treat the pups, as well as people.
Flight Pack
In the Season 3 episode, "Air Pups", Marshall was given a flight pack equipped with a jetpack and water cannons. His water cannons not only put out fires, but also keep him in the air at the same time.
Mission PAW Pup Pack
Marshall's Mission PAW Pup Pack contains a "hydro-launcher" that can shoot water at a rapid pace to knock down walls and other objects if necessary. It shoots water with enough pressure to slice through wood, as shown in "Mission PAW: Quest for the Crown".
Sea Patrol Pup Pack
Marshall's Sea Patrol pup pack carries a rescue buoy similar to the other pups' pup packs, along with his trusty water/paint cannons. When underwater in his scuba gear, his pup-pack carries an air hose and claw, which he used to re-float The Flounder and retrieve the baby octopus' rattle in "Sea Patrol: Pups Save a Baby Octopus".
Rescue Knights Pup Pack
In Season 8's "Rescue Knights: Quest for the Dragon's Tooth", along with the other pups, Marshall received a new pup pack for Rescue Knights rescue missions. It is equipped with a water cannon in the form of a lance that he uses to put out fires.
Vehicles
Fire Truck
The fire truck is Marshall's vehicle. It is one of the many high-tech vehicles Ryder had built for each pup. Like all of the pup's vehicles, Marshall's truck can transform from a doghouse to a vehicle and vice versa. Marshall's fire truck is equipped with firefighting equipment such as a tall ladder and an attached fire hose. The vehicle number is 03. During later missions in the jungle, Marshall's fire truck is repainted in camouflage colors and sports a much different look to fit in with the jungle surroundings.
Since "Pups Save Jake", Marshall's fire truck can be transformed into an ambulance and used on medic missions. In said episode, he uses it to transport Jake home, revealing that the inside is big enough to accommodate someone as tall as Jake. In "Pups Save a Show," Marshall uses a stretcher, a thermometer, and a stethoscope when caring for Cap'n Turbot and Chase, all of which he likely retrieved from his ambulance or his pup pack.
Fire Boat
With the opening of Adventure Beach, Marshall was given a new all-terrain fire boat for his Sea Patrol duties, equipped with red emergency lights and cannons for dealing with problems, such as when dealing with the Kitten Catastrophe Crew's mechanical shark in "Sea Patrol: Pups Save a Shark". It is designed in the shape of a speedboat.
Ultimate Fire Truck
After Mayor Humdinger takes control of the giant robot meant for a movie the PAW Patrol were helping out in, because of the danger the robot's fire posed to the city, Marshall is assigned leadership of the team, and his fire truck is upgraded to a much larger version of itself, sporting a larger all-red light bar similar to on Chase's Ultimate Police Truck, a robotic claw on one side of the truck, a reel line on the other, a much larger ladder for aerial firefighting with an extra monitor at the end of the ladder, located beneath the cab of the Ultimate Fire Truck, and a smaller, deployable rescue cart, complete with lights and siren like the Ultimate Fire Truck.

It is also able to imitate the sounds of an elephant, allowing him to communicate with them.
Mighty Fire Truck
In PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie and the Mighty Pups sub-series (Season 10), Marshall rides a red and black fire truck with gray and white highlights. When powered-up by Marshall's power paws, the vehicle's streaks glow yellow.

Rescue Wheels Fire Truck
In the Rescue Wheels sub-series, Marshall drives a red fire truck on black oversized wheels. It has his pup tag and red, orange, and yellow flames painted on both its sides. Its vehicle number, 03, is on both sides of the front as well as the lower back of the truck. Above the cockpit is an extendable silver and red ladder with his pup tag symbol on both sides, a flame effect painted on the front, and a silver hatch with a gray symbol of the PAW Patrol's logo in the center.
Like his other vehicles, his fire truck is equipped with a water cannon and an extendable ladder. There is a separate cockpit within the top part of the ladder that Marshall uses to operate it and his vehicle. Underneath the silver hatch in front is an extendable water cannon that he can use to spray objects away (as seen in "Rescue Wheels: Pups Save the Risky Race"), clean messes, and put out fires. In "Rescue Wheels: Pups Save the Spelunkers", Marshall uses his ladder to shield Ryder, Cap'n Turbot, and Francois from falling stalactites and give Francois a ride out of the cave.
Skills and Abilities
Marshall is really fast at running. In "Pups Fight Fire", if there weren't any interruptions during the race, it is possible that Marshall could have been the "fastest fire pup in the world".
As a dog, Marshall has a sharp sense of smell. Although it is not as sensitive as Chase's, Marshall is able to smell and detect gas leaks and smoke.
While in his Mighty Pup mode, he can generate heat, and when he puts his paws on the ground, it can melt the surface, making him a literal "fire dog". When he's charged-up, he can jump very high.
He can also speak other animal languages like cow, squirrel and beaver, wolf, pelican, swan, walrus, kitten, chicken, snake, ostrich, elephant, mammoth, and penguin as shown in "Pups Save a Cow", "Pups Save Uncle Otis from His Cabin", "Pups Save a Yodeler", "Pups Save Travelin' Travis from Really Big Bill!", "Pups Save the Floating Goodways", "Pups Save a Lonesome Walrus", "Pups Save a Humdinger Doll", "Pups Save a Plane" and "Pups Save a Wrongway Farmhand", "Pups Save the Wind Trekkers", "Pups Save Alex's Feathery Friends", "Jungle Pups: Pups Find a Hidden Jungle", "Jungle Pups: Pups Save the Big, Big Animals", and "Pups Save the Lost Penguin".
Marshall can also play drums as seen in "Pups Save a Flamingo Dancer".
In PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie, Marshall gains the power to create fireballs. In the Mighty Pups sub-series (Season 10), he can use his paws to generate flames and melt things such as ice and snow.
