Bark-Andre Furry and friends host Art of Racing giveaway

In Southern Nevada and want to see The Art of Racing in the Rain early? Enter Bark’s Art of Racing giveaway!

Las Vegas Jack Russell Terrier Bark-Andre Furry and his girlfriend Cali the Yorkipoo are hosting an Art of Racing giveaway, in partnership with a local movie theater, to give away tickets to an early screening of The Art of Racing in the Rain.

Based on Garth Stein’s 2008 novel (see our review), The Art of Racing in the Rain follows a Golden Retriever named Enzo who belongs to a sports car racer named Denny Swift.

The elderly Enzo, voiced by Kevin Costner (Field of Dreams, Dances With Wolves, For the Love of the Game), narrates his life with Denny, who is played by Milo Ventimiglia (Gilmore Girls, Rocky Balboa, This is Us).

Denny’s wife Eve is played by Amanda Seyfried (Mean Girls, Mamma Mia, Letters to Juliet), and the trailer makes it seem as though her job was changed from a mid-level sales job to perhaps a teacher.
