Posted on March 24, 2025

Some paws-itively amazing entertainment is coming to the Rosamond Gifford Zoo! Beginning July 2025, the Friends of the Rosamond Gifford Zoo will host Canine Champions for Conservation. The zoo invites guests of all ages to attend the dazzling program.

Canine Champions for Conservation is a live show that features a variety of shelter and rescue dogs of different breeds, ages, and skill levels performing delightful choreography and feats of agility, all while inspiring guests to protect our natural world. At each show, guests will learn more about each dog’s shelter-to-stardom story as well as hear encouraging messaging about pet adoption, positive reinforcement training, and more.

The shows will run 11:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m., Thursday - Monday from July 17 – Aug. 11 at the outdoor amphitheater in the zoo’s courtyard

Canine Champions for Conservation has performed at locations around the nation, including North Carolina Zoo, Zoo Miami, and Hogle Zoo. In 2025, the four-legged athletes will take the stage at the Rosamond Gifford Zoo for the very first time. This is a spectacular event that you need to see to believe.
