About

The Beautiful Bulldog Contest® at Drake University is a unique trademarked event with an over 40-year history. The event kicks off a week-long Drake Relays celebration. Thirty English Bulldogs walk the pup-way to impress judges in hopes of being crowned the Most Beautiful Bulldog. The winner then serves a year-long reign as the Drake Relays mascot and the Most Beautiful Bulldog.  The 45th Annual Beautiful Bulldog Contest®, presented by Ramsey Subaru, will take place Sunday, April 21, 2024. 

The Beautiful Bulldog Contest® runs on volunteers from the Drake community (students, faculty/staff, alumni, friends) who assist with tasks as varied checking in the dogs and their owners, taking care of the needs of the contestants, assisting with the Bounce House and other games at the Kid Zone, or helping non-profits at the Rescue Festival. There are a few volunteer roles that are held for faculty/staff/alumni/friends only, so please make note of these when signing up.
