It's a tidy story, but never remarkable, and a few burp jokes reveal disconcerting limitations to the goodwill of the film.
Santa Buddies is the equivalent of a flaming bag of doggie dung on your doorstep: it's impossible to explain what you did to deserve it and you want it gone and forgotten as soon as possible.
Popular puppy series adds a cheery holiday message.
...immediately establishes itself as a pointless and downright interminable family comedy that's almost entirely lacking in elements designed to appeal to older viewers.
I've never seen an Air Bud movie. I know right? Insanity. But it's Christmas and so I just have to watch a ridiculous amount of Christmas movies, no matter how bad they are. This film just lays it out straight away. Santa and his dog (???) are walking (probably on the spot) in a painfully obvious CGI North Pole.

Boring story with really annoying and badly done voice acting from all the stupid children, the puppies looked scary and mutated, totally not cute
