Tell us a little about your pet?
This 1-year-old Pittie mix is smart, social, and full of charm. A proud graduate of the 8-week “Paws in the Pen” training program, Dougie knows his commands, loves people, and gets along great with other dogs. He’s calm in chaos (yes, even on live TV!), confident in crowds, and always down for a cuddle or adventure. With his good looks and big heart, Dougie’s got what it takes to be the crowd favorite!

Why should your pet be crowned the 2025 Pet Pageant Champion?
Because Dougie’s got it all—brains, beauty, and a heart of gold. He’s a fully trained, media-ready superstar who can charm a whole crowd and still make time for snuggles. From prison graduate to public icon, Dougie’s journey shows resilience, loyalty, and unmatched paw-sitivity. He’s not just a good boy—he’s the boy. Give the crown to the pup who’s got it all… give it to Dougie!
