Tony Award-winning performer Bernadette Peters (along with several adorable pups!) stopped by Live with Kelly and Mark to talk about the return of Broadway Barks, now in its 26th year.

"It's the most beautiful event because people come with the highest expectations of finding their best friend and there's so much love in their heart," Peter says. She founded the event in 1999 with fellow performer Mary Tyler Moore.

Broadway Barks partners with animal shelters and adoption agencies (such as 1 Love 4 Animals) to provide people an opportunity to adopt dogs in need of homes.

This year, the annual event will take place Saturday, August 3rd, with Sutton Foster as co-host. Other Broadway names in attendance include Michael UrieVictoria ClarkJenn Colella, among others.
