He is the eldest sibling and eldest male puppy of the Dalmatian family, son of Delilah, the older brother/half-brother of Delilah's other puppies, the stepson of Doug, the stepbrother of Dolly and her siblings and great-great-great grandson of Pongo and Perdita.
He is voiced by Josh Brener, who currently voices Donatello in Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
In the series, Dylan along with his stepsister Dolly, is tasked by his mother Delilah and stepfather Doug to look after their 97 younger siblings whilst they go out to work.
In the episode "Who The Dog Do You Think You Are", Dylan comes across a painting in his attic called The Prince of Dalmacia which appears to resemble him wearing a crown. This makes the other puppies (sans Dolly) think that Dylan has descended from royalty. Hearing this, the Dalmatians' neighbour Clarissa the Corgi tricks Dylan into marrying her in order to become royalty too. However at the end of the episode, Dylan and Dolly discover that the painting was not of a Dalmatian but a different breed of dog which had dust on it, which made it look like a Dalmatian. Horrified that she married a "commoner", Clarissa destroys her marriage certificates. Delilah then reveals to Dylan that the painting was purchased from Camden Market from less than £10.
In the episode "A Summer to Remember", Dylan goes on holiday with his family to Cornwall where he meets a collie named Summer, who becomes his love interest. The relationship is short-lived due to Dylan having to return to London.

Many episodes he can be bossy to his siblings sister Dolly, and even Dawkins, and so on who has either retaliated against him or been okay with his bossy arrogant attitude.

Trivia[]
Dylan along with his sisters Dolly, Destiny, Dallas, & Déjà Vu (known collectively as Triple D) are the only puppies from Delilah's side of the family to not speak with English accents and instead speak with American accents like Doug. It could be possible that their father/fathers were American whilst their other siblings' father/fathers were English.
Dylan appears to have a similar collar design to both Lucky and Thunderbolt.
Dylan is the great-great-great grandson of Pongo and Perdita. This would mean that Dylan's mother Delilah is the granddaughter of either Dipstick's children Domino, Oddball, Little Dipper (who are the only known grandchildren of Pongo and Perdita) or a child of one of Pongo and Perdita's other 14 puppies.
According to a presentation at Cartoons On The Bay 2019, Dylan is 12 years old in human years.
In the pilot episode, both of Dylan's ears were completely black, giving him the appearance of his great-great-great-grandfather Pongo. This was later changed to having his right ear black with white spots and his left ear white with black spots.
His voice kinda sounds like Donnie from ROTTMNT, this was because his voice actor did the voice of Donnie.
His Japanese voice actor is Yu Hayashi (林勇), who also plays Peter Pan and Steven Quiz in Steven Universe.
His Korean voice actor is Lee Kyungtae (이경태), who plays Randy Cunningham in Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja.
