James Gunn’s Superman (2025) has been a fairly successful film thus far, attaining the highest opening for a solo Superman film and firmly kicking off the film side of the DCU reboot. It seems the film, and Krypto the Superdog in particular, has found an interesting new impact to add to the list. Following the film’s release, the dog training company Woofz noted an uptick in online dog adoption queries. In an article discussing the pros and cons of adopting older dogs, the company brings up these findings.
Woofz reported that the query “adopt a dog near me” increased by 513%, “rescue dog adoption near me” increased by 163%, and “adopt a puppy” increased by 31%. A Krypto-specific search based on his breed, “adopt a schnauzer,” increased by 299% as well. Adopting a pet is a long-term commitment and not something to be taken lightly. Natalia Shahmetova, CEO of Woofz, reminded people, “Adoption is a real commitment. The hype will fade, but your dog will stay, so make sure you’re ready to give them the time, care, and training they need and deserve.” It wasn’t just Internet searches; Warner Bros. partnered with Best Friends Animal Society for a brief period to cover adoption fees, resulting in 454 adoptions!
