For the third year in a row, the Miss and Mr. Universe Canine competition is set to dazzle New York City with wagging tails, stylish struts, and some of the most talented pooches from around the globe.
This unique event brings together dog lovers and their furry companions from different countries, with each canine contestant representing their nation in a quest to win the coveted titles of "Miss Universe Canine" and "Mr. Universe Canine."

Scheduled to take place in the heart of New York, this year's competition promises to be a spectacular showcase of canine charisma and talent. Dogs of all breeds and sizes will compete in several exciting categories, including "Natural Beauty," "Talent," and "Costumes." From glamorous gowns and tuxedos to dazzling costumes inspired by the cultures of their home countries, the event is set to be a visual treat for audiences both in person and watching from home.
The "Natural Beauty" segment will focus on each dog's unique charm, personality, and poise, highlighting their inherent cuteness and appeal. The "Talent" round will give pups a chance to shine by showing off their best tricks, stunts, and skills — whether it's balancing a ball on their nose, executing an intricate agility course, or even dancing to their favorite tunes. Finally, the "Costume" category will allow dog owners to get creative, dressing their pets in outfits representing their countries with pride and flair.
A Show to Keep Pets Engaged
Dog owners have expressed their enthusiasm for the event, telling Telemundo that the competition provides a fun and engaging activity for their pets. "It's not just a show for us; it's a way to keep our dogs entertained and stimulated," shared one enthusiastic participant. "They get to socialize with other dogs, practice new skills, and enjoy the spotlight. It's a wonderful experience for both the pets and their owners."

More than just a fun event, the Miss and Mr. Universe Canine competition is also an opportunity to give back. All proceeds from the event will be donated to a charity, supporting initiatives that help pets in need. Last year, the funds raised went to local animal shelters and organizations dedicated to rescuing and rehoming dogs, providing them with much-needed resources and care.
This year's event aims to continue that tradition, ensuring that while the dogs enjoy a day in the limelight, many others will benefit from the support and generosity of participants and sponsors.
