Helga Humdinger is a recurring character who was first mentioned in Season 4's "Pups Save a Ferris Wheel" in PAW Patrol. She later made her first physical appearance in Season 8's "Pups Save a Chicken Tulip".
Bio
Helga Humdinger is Mayor Humdinger's mother. It is currently unknown where she lives, but she often comes to Foggy Bottom and Adventure Bay to visit her son and her good friend, Mayor Goodway. She is sometimes seen driving a purple van, which she uses to transport herself.
In "Pups Save the Hummy Gummies", she bakes a gummy treat in honor of Mayor Humdinger called "Hummy Gummies", which are made from plant-based ingredients. These are quite popular with the citizens of Adventure Bay because of their delicious taste.
In "Pups Save the Buggy Trekkers", she reveals that in her youth, she used to be a buggy trekker champion.
Personality
Helga is notable for being the first Humdinger not to be antagonistic in any way. Compared to The Cheetah, Harold and Mayor Humdinger, Helga is much kinder and does not attempt to cheat or compete. This makes her similar to Ryder and Mayor Goodway, and she constantly tries to keep her son's scheming tendencies under control.
She is very fond of Mayor Humdinger and the Kitten Catastrophe Crew and tends to spoil them a bit, often using her baby-talk, which Mayor Humdinger sometimes finds embarrassing, especially when in front of other people. However, when Mayor Humdinger does something irresponsible, she will scold him for his rude behavior and usually has him apologize to whoever he has inconvenienced. She will do the same to animals for taking things that do not belong to them (as shown in "Pups Save a Trophy").
In the "Pups Save a Trophy", she is revealed to be quite athletic. After a raccoon stole Mayor Humdinger's trophy, she climbs after it in a tree with little to no trouble until she gets stuck on a branch. Once Marshall and Chase come to her rescue, she backflips off of Chase's net before chasing after a bear cub with great speed.
In "Rescue Wheels: Pups vs. the Monster Mayor", she is shown to be a fan of monster trucks, as well as Roxi and her stunts.
In "Pups Save Helga & the Humsquatch", despite this not being an issue in all her previous appearances, she is shown to be unable to see without her glasses. After the Humsquatch accidentally breaks them, she mistakes him as Mayor Humdinger and treats him rather affectionately with her usual baby-talk and hugs. When she later learns that he is not her son, she continues to be affectionate with him and becomes his friend.
