A Dog’s Purpose will be in theaters January 27, but you can celebrate your own dog by adding his or her picture to the A Dog’s Purpose film mosaic and creating a poster, which could be used as part of the national movie campaign! (All Photos courtesy of A Dog’s Purpose)

Did you know National Mutt Day  is celebrated twice a year, on July 31 and December 2? Well, you may have missed it, but anyone who has a lovable mutt, or any dog for that matter, knows that every day you have a dog in your life is cause for celebration.  That’s exactly what the folks behind the movie, A Dog’s Purpose, believe, too, and have joined up with the Best Friends Animal Society for a very special project, A Dog’s Purpose Digital Film Mosaic.

Check out the site, then add your best pal’s picture to the film’s mosaic and share how your buddy makes your world all the better.  You can even create your own movie poster featuring your dog’s photo. In fact, if you share your poster using #MyDogsPurpose, it could be featured in the national campaign for the movie. Even better, anyone can adopt their own best friend on the mosaic or make a donation to Best Friends Animal Society.  This amazing organization is focused on stopping the killing of nearly 4 million pets in shelters all across America. Universal, in honor of the movie, is matching all donations up to $25,000.
