Caring for all creatures great and small seems to run in the Heigl family. While her sister Meg tends to tail waggers as a veterinarian, Grey’s Anatomy star Katherine Heigl has used her star power to draw attention to animal issues. Having been the proud parent to a plethora of pooches over the years–including Stella, Piper, Weezer the Schnoodle, a German Shepherd mix named Anderson, a mini-Schnauzer who answers to “Romeo” and Oscar, who was rescued from a garbage can– the A-list actress will often pause to help a cause that improves the lives of dogs. In the following photo, the Emmy Award winner cuddles a canine at the third annual Pedigree adoption drive, which was held at a giant dog house in Times Square back in 2007.
Katherine Heigl recently found herself “in the dog house” to raise awareness for the third annual PEDIGREE Adoption Drive. Heigl held court inside a giant dog house in Times Square to kick off the educational and fundraising campaign that focuses on finding dogs loving homes. In just one week, the program has raised more than $1.5 million dollars for the American Humane Association. (PRNewsFoto/Masterfoods USA,Jamie McCarthy)
