As a kickoff of its new series, "Showdog Moms & Dads," Bravo invited dog owners to the NBC Experience Store in New York City to hold their “Give Your Dog 15 Minutes of Fame Auditions.“ At the event, dogs competed for the opportunity to be featured in a commercial on the network promoting the series.

Bravo on-air producers and a panel of celebrity dog judges including Enzo, who portrayed “Eddie” on Frasier and Mushu, who portrayed “Frank, the Pug” in Men in Black were on hand to judge the canines. There were Bravo doggie tee’s, Frisbees, and “celebrity photo ops” with the famous dogs for all who attended.
