Roll out the red carpet and ready the realm’s finest chew toys. We have a newly crowned royal on our paws!
After a mountain of entries and thousands of votes in our 11th annual Cutest Dog Contest, Little Rock Soirée readers have officially named the most adorable pup in the metro.
So without further ado, the winner is…
Bucky!
With unparalleled side-eye and legs for days, this sweet pup stole the hearts of voters near and far. Now the flowing-haired monarch will take home a paw-some prize package and a print feature in our September issue.
Congratulations, Bucky!
And while they ultimately claimed the doggy crown, we’re also sending major love to our royal court of runner-up pups…

Congrats, you amazing canines!
Thank you to everyone who participated and voted, and for sharing your furry friends with us for 11 years. Special thanks also goes to Hounds Lounge Pet Resort & Spa for sponsoring the 2025 contest.
Be on the lookout for Bucky’s magazine debut in our September issue. And finally, one last round of appl-awws for all our adorable finalists!
