Our Pageant
Our TV demo (produced in 2007 by Marc Landers)! A nice overview of our event!
We love animals - all kinds of animals - but especially DOGS. Our greatest joy is to be able to provide a fun bonding experience not only for humans and their canine companions, but also for the entire family!
Founded in 2006, The Barking Beauty Pageant is a not-for-profit event that has earned thousands for our affiliated charities. We've supported community projects and animal rescue groups in New York City, Philadelphia and New Jersey. In 2020 we hosted 2 live events & 1 online photo contest for cats, and even with COVID19 restrictions we raised over $7500 for our affiliated charities. Plans are underway for pageants across the country, so stay tuned for more information!
Our Next Pageant will be the 2022 Austin Barking Beauty Pageant
