What's your dog’s favorite toy and/or go-to treat?

Ava’s absolute favorite treat is dehydrated chicken sticks, and she lights up with excitement the moment she sees one. She savors every bite, wagging her tail and prancing around as if it’s a special celebration. These little sticks aren’t just a snack—they’re a source of pure joy for her, and giving her one always brings out her playful, happy spirit that makes her impossible not to love.

What is your dog's most unique quality?

Ava’s quirkiest characteristic is her habit of running on three legs, even though she has four. It’s both amusing and endearing to watch her scoot around with one little paw lifted, as if she has her own secret style of speed. This playful, unique habit never fails to make anyone smile, showing her spirited personality and reminding everyone that her charm comes not just from her looks, but from the joy and laughter she brings to every moment.

Why should your dog be America’s Favorite?

Ava should be America’s favorite dog because she’s full of personality, love, and charm. Her beautiful soul, playful energy, and quirky little nature—like running on three legs, being quite vocal when demanding her favorite treats, and dancing around, kicking up her little feet as if to say, “Look at me, here I am!”—bring joy and laughter to everyone around her. Loyal, affectionate, and endlessly entertaining, Ava brightens every day.
