Sometimes. They're not terrible characters but it's obvious that they take too much screentime away from characters who are barely ever seen, like Lilly and Garth.

Yeah I wanted another movie that focused on the main characters...I don't know, the pups go to school, anything...I just wish I could see more of Kate and Humphrey / Lilly and Garth life after getting married.

No, just wish they got better names, more for Stinky and Runt though... I love Claudette more than all three of them. But I do agree with all of you, they need to focus more on the main characters too... Humphrey, Kate, Lilly, and Garth were main characters in the first movie, but after the filmmakers focused more on the pups, they became less important. If they were to do another movie, it should continue off where the first one left off, or at least tell the events between the first movie and A Howl-iday adventure
