The 2024 Embrace Pawthlete Showdown champions have been crowned!

Now in its second year, the contest celebrates pets in two categories: Top Paw MVP, showcasing pets' exceptional athletic abilities, and Top Benchwarmer, highlighting their charming yet less coordinated antics. The contest garnered nearly 300 submissions and over 5,100 votes.

  • Second Place: Loki, with a bag full of tricks and antics, brings his A-game to every performance.
  • Third Place: Salsa, an animal actor and stunt pro, has a knack for the mischievous, making her a crowd favorite.

Top Benchwarmers:

  • First Place: Zara, with her Fantasy League picks secured, is all set for a season of sideline snuggles.
  • Second Place: Baker, not just a spectator but a tailgating pro, loves the game almost as much as the halftime snacks.
  • Third Place: Benji, might not have sprinted to Paris for the Olympics, but his heart-winning performance scores him all the gold medals at home.

Winners in the first, second, and third places have received $1,000, $500, and $250, respectively.

Brian Macias, CEO of Embrace Pet Insurance, shared his excitement about the event, saying, "The Embrace Pawthlete Showdown really highlights the best — and funniest — of our four-legged friends.
