According to their main website, BRB Internacional was planning a new feature-length CGI film to be released in 2016, but it was delayed for unknown reasons.[3] [4] In April 2019, it was announced that Apolo Films has since taken over production of the film.[5] On February 11, 2020, the first image of the film was revealed. The film was written by Doug Langdale and directed by Toni Garcia.[6] The film was released on theatres in January 2021 under the title Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds.[7] It was released on SVOD.

The film maintains the original series opening main theme tune composed by Guido and Maurizio De Angelis. Additionally, they have composed new songs for the film.[8]

In Spain, it was originally slated for an opening in theatres on January 22, 2021 but its release was postponed to August 18, 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[9] [10]

In 2022, Viva Pictures released the film on streaming services in North America, retitled The Dog Knight.
