There have been multiple English dubs of the donghua.
Early CPE dub[]
The first season, Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf, has an English dub. The dub was made no later than 2008. It is unknown how many episodes were dubbed or how the dub was released. Currently, the only footage that has surfaced is a single short trailer with short clips; full episodes are hard to find.
This dub uses the names Pleasant Goat, Beauty Goat, etc. instead of the names Weslie, Tibbie, etc. like most of the other dubs.
Disney dubs[]
Joys of Seasons[]
An English dub of Joys of Seasons was recorded in the Hong Kong area at BTI Studios[1].
Disney began airing it in 2011 in the Asia-Pacific region. In addition to the English version, they also aired the Chinese version in certain areas. Disney released the video game Where's My Water? Featuring XYY to promote the English dub. They stopped airing it when their contract was cancelled before it was meant to expire in 2016.
The dub airs in Africa on the separate channel StarTimes Kids.
The dub is played in American Airlines flights to Asia.
In certain regions, the streaming service iflix allows viewers to watch the English dub.
There are rumors that the same company dubbed Mission Incredible: Adventures on the Dragon's Trail and Happy, Happy, Bang! Bang!. Michael C. Pizzuto, the English voice of Slowy, does not remember dubbing the movies and does not remember dubbing more than 60 episodes, so it is unlikely that dubs exist of this season and movie.
The English dub of Joys of Seasons is very difficult to find if one does not live in a country that airs it. Very few episodes have been uploaded online, and some are not even Itsin good quality. It's not until April 7th 2020 when the English YouTube channel starts uploading episodes in English.
Great War in the Bizarre World[]
The English dub of Great War in the Bizarre World (episodes 281~340 of Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf) was distributed worldwide on DramaFever Kids starting on August 4, 2014. For three weeks, twenty episodes (considered one season each) were added every Sunday, both in English and in Chinese with subtitles.[2]. It was aimed at children 6-11.[3]
It was removed from the service in October 2018, shortly before the service shut down that same month. Some episodes circulate online, but there is currently no way to watch all 60 episodes until the official English YouTube Channel airs every week starting on May 18th, 2022.
This dub also aired on some Disney channel along with other episodes from 530.
Miao Mi dubs[]
The Mandarin-learning service Miao Mi dubbed Dear Little Wish, Pleasant Goat Fun Class: Chapter of Animals & Plants, and Pleasant Goat Fun Class: Chapter of Sports into English. They distributed the show in the USA in 2016 through Amazon Channels. Miao Mi also exists in Australia and Asia, and in the latter continent, they have their own channel.
These dubs use the names Pleasant Goat, Beauty Goat, etc. instead of the names Weslie, Tibbie, etc. like most of the other dubs.
