Nothing is like having a four legged best friend and the movie The Art of Racing in the Rain expresses that feeling! The movie is based on the New York Times Best Selling book, and the film will be brought to life in theaters on August 9. I can’t wait to see it! To kick off the excitement, I am sharing the perfect dog themed giveaway plus a little preview of the movie. This post and giveaway are both sponsored.
About The Movie:
Based on the best-selling novel by Garth Stein, THE ART OF RACING IN THE RAIN is a heartfelt tale narrated by a witty and philosophical dog named Enzo (voiced by Kevin Costner). Through his bond with his owner, Denny Swift (Milo Ventimiglia), an aspiring Formula One race car driver, Enzo has gained tremendous insight into the human condition and understands that the techniques needed on the racetrack can also be used to successfully navigate the journey of life. The film follows Denny and the loves of his life – his wife, Eve (Amanda Seyfried), their young daughter Zoe (Ryan Kiera Armstrong), and ultimately, his true best friend, Enzo.
The Giveaway:
1 Copy of The Art Of Racing In The Rain Book
1 Dog Bandanna
And a $25 Fandango gift card
I have a couple cute little four legged best friends! Do you have one? I would love to hear a little about them in the comments below and if you plan to see The Art of Racing in the Rain too!

Lucy is our sweet girl. But since we moved here to CA with her, my dad believes that dogs belong outside. WHAT?!?! So I ignore him, his house or not, and bring her inside with us at night and when he’s not here during the day. Especially when my parents leave on vacations, we bring her inside the house most days, all day long! So HA!

My fur baby was originally my daughters pup. When she moved into a different apartment animals weren’t allowed so I took my fur baby in. He’s a Bischon Frise and is such a loving soul. He is 13 1/2 years old and if one of my grandsons or any child is at my house and falls asleep he must be right beside them to protect and watch them. He is never mean and he loves me and kids with everything he is.
