Batavia, NY – Dogs, community spirit, and a little friendly competition are coming together once again as Pooch Playoffs returns to Western New York. Hosted by Ashley Bringenberg Photography, this bracket-style dog portrait competition raises funds for the Pawsitive for Heroes program through WNY Heroes.
Now in its fourth year, this fun-filled event gives local dog owners a chance to show off their beloved pups while making a meaningful impact. Portrait sessions are happening from now until the end of March and the competition kicks off in mid April, featuring 32 dogs vying for the title of WNY’s Ulti-Mutt Cutie!
Each round, participating pups will be paired up for head-to-head online voting, with winners advancing until one dog is crowned champion. The Final Four earn special prizes, and the top dog will claim the grand prize, along with ultimate bragging rights!
“Every year I’m reminded how much this community loves both their dogs and their veterans,” says Ashley Bringenberg, owner of Ashley Bringenberg Photography. “Pooch Playoffs brings those two things together in a way that’s joyful, adorable, and genuinely impactful.”
For a $125 donation to WNY Heroes’ Pawsitive for Heroes, participants receive:
🐾 A custom dog portrait session
🐾 A personalized photo keychain
🐾 A swag bag full of goodies
Spots are limited and filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Interested pet parents should visit ashleybringenberg.com/pooch to enter their pup ASAP.
Local businesses are also invited to sponsor the event and be part of this heartwarming community initiative.
