Watch Hilary Swank Completely Lose It Over This Adorable Puppy at the All-Star Dog Rescue Celebration

Now, for your daily dose of adorable: Hilary Swank is totally having a moment with this tiny puppy.

Speaking with Entertainment Tonight backstage at the All-Star Dog Rescue Celebration -- airing Thanksgiving Day on Fox at 8 p.m. ET/PT -- Swank instantly bonded with one of the pint-sized pups that is looking for a new home. See the aww-inducing moment in the video above.

"I do everything that I can to help raise awareness about the importance of rescuing, adopting and not shopping, of spay and neuter, and every single thing that you can think of," Swank, who is executive producing the special for the second year in a row, told ET.

"I'm so, so, so honored to be a part of just raising awareness in such a huge way," she continued. "We had 5.5 million viewers last year, it was a huge hit, and that just means that more dogs lives are saved."

Kaley Cuoco hosts this year's special, which features a star-studded roster of celebrity guests. Among them: Scarlett Johansson, Chelsea Handler, Miley Cyrus, and Olivia Munn, who brought home her dog, Chance, after attending last year's celebration. If Swank has her way, she may also be adding a new fur baby to her brood this time around.

"Even though I produce the show, there are no favorites -- meaning I don't get first dibs," she explained, turning her attention once again to that adorable pup. "Even though you are my favorite. Shh! Don't tell anyone!"

Swank already has two rescue dogs at home, Rumi and Kai, and jokes that they can sometimes take priority over her dating life.

"I have had a few men say to me, 'I wish you loved me as much as you love your dogs,'" she teased with a smile.

Cuoco also dished on her "main man," Norman, in an interview with ET -- confessing that she may be considering some permanent ink in his honor! See the interview below.
