Broadway Barks The 11th Annual Adopt-a-thon

Bernadette Peters (who’s due for a slice of vegan birthday cake this month) will appear on The View Friday February 19 as part of the show’s 2nd annual special to encourage adoption.

Peters is reportedly bringing her dog along with her as well.

As a spinoff to the Westminster Dog Show, The View will present their version of a dog show, the Mutt Show.

Five mutts up for adoption will be competing and one lucky four legged friend will be awarded the Pedigree Dogs Rule award.

According to Broadway World, Peters will also promote her second children’s book, Stella is a Star. Proceeds from the book are said to go towards Broadway Barks, an organization Peters co-founded with Mary Tyler Moore, that helps find homes for shelter animals.

Sixth Annual Broadway Barks Adoption Event

Mary Tyler Moore and Bernadette Peters, both vegetarian women who love animals, will once again host the 11th annual Broadway Barks, a celebrity rich cat and dog adopt-a-thon benefiting New York city’s animal shelters and adoption agencies.

Twenty four-legged creatures will be up for adoption at the event this Saturday, July 11 between 3:30 and 6:30 PM at Schubert Alley in New York City.

If you think this is just another reason for celebrities to get their faces in the press, think again. This deal saves lives!

“According to recent statistics, we learned that we are making a difference,” said Mary Tyler Moore. “In 2002, the rate of euthanasia among shelter animals was at 74% of total intake. We are proud that as a result of our efforts, in 2008, the number of animals killed in NYC shelters has dropped to 39% of total intake. That means nearly 15,000 fewer animals have been euthanized in our city’s shelters compared to 2003.”
