From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU!
Thank you so much to everyone who entered, donated, voted, shared, pre-ordered a calendar, and supported the 2025 Howling Heroes Calendar Contest. Though entries have closed, every single vote will have a lasting impact on the LAFD and the firefighters who serve our communities every single day.

Tune in to KTLA on Monday, July 28 at 1:30 PM for the announcement of the 2025 Howling Hero, and the 11 winning pups who secured their spot in the calendar!
As you shared your pet and collected votes, or voted yourself, remember that every dollar raised supports the LAFD Foundation in purchasing vital equipment and funding programs that help firefighters save lives and protect communities. Community support directly addresses gaps in funding for the LAFD, ensuring that our firefighters have the protective gear, advanced medical equipment, and life-saving technology necessary to keep Los Angeles safe.
Even in the most challenging moments, the enthusiasm and positivity surrounding this annual contest remind us what true community looks like. Thank you for being part of the spirit that keeps Los Angeles, and your Los Angeles firefighters, strong.
Many, many thanks,
Rianna
LAFD Foundation

LOOK HOW CUTE THEY ALL ARE!!

It was a very close race to the top in the final hours and we absolutely need to acknowledge our runners up.
These incredible dogs and owners make us wish there were more than 12 months in a year. They may not be in the calendar, but they are certainly in our hearts every day.

Thank you.
