All through August NBC4 is helping to Clear the Shelters and find forever homes for our furry friends.
To celebrate this year’s campaign, Pat Collins is back with a new Pat’s Prized Pets challenge.
This year, we’re looking for hot dogs and cool cats. That's right! With temperatures soaring, it’s important to make sure your furry friends are keeping cool. We want to see how you’re doing it. Whoever has the most creative idea gets a Pat’s Prized Pets Bowl.
It’s easy to join the challenge. Just take a picture of the funny, clever or unusual ways your pet is keeping cool.
