ITV continues its love of Animals with award show

Following the success of dancing doggy Pudsey on Britain’s Got Talent, Paul O’Grady’s documentary series on the Battersea Dogs and Cats Home,  the current Secret Life of Dogs and the less successful Christine Bleakley special That Dog Can Dance! ITV are now looking for special pets to celebrate.

“A brand new programme on ITV will be celebrating Britain’s most extraordinary animals and the people who dedicate their lives to them.” The broadcaster states in its search for the super pet.

The gong show, hosted by Paul O’Grady, is to be be filmed in front of a live studio audience in April with winners voted for by both the public and a respected group of animal experts.

ITV are looking for entertaining and funny animals that need recognition as well as inspirational and loyal animals who have changed someone’s life or maybe you know of a brave animal that have put themselves in danger to save the lives of others.

It’s not just the pet’s that’ll be celebrated on The British Animal Honours 2013 the network is also looking for animal charities and conservationists who have improved the lives of animals in their community – either in the UK or abroad.

“So, if you want to nominate an amazing animal, a special person (in secret!) who has dedicated time to them or any inspirational animal story, then let us know.” ITV note.
