–Season Three’s Two-Part Finale Features Special Music Performance–
Silver Spring, Md. and Los Angeles, CA, March 4, 2015 – Discovery Family, the smart entertainment choice for families, and Hasbro Studios are excited to announce supermodel, actress, television host, producer, designer and entrepreneur Heidi Klum as a special guest on its two-part finale for season three of Littlest Pet Shop, airing Saturday, March 7 at  noon and 12:30 PM ET.
Klum enters the Littlest Pet Shop as one of Blythe’s newest friends, a high-energy day camper named Lady Yodely of the Heidi, who has a strong passion for yodeling. In voicing the role, Klum admitted to being very similar to her character and enjoyed getting to exercise her vocal talents with a variety of surprising performances.
In the two-part finale, Lady Yodely of the Heidi (or Heidi to her friends) just happens to be the canine companion of Jason, the lead singer of the world-famous band The Soul Patches. The pup plays a pivotal role in helping Blythe convince the band to perform at her Pet Fest, a fundraising event for the Endangered Animals Fund that celebrates the treasured relationships of people and their pets.
“I was really excited to be asked to voice one of the little animals on Littlest Pet Shop,” Klum said. “My kids and I are all excited to watch this episode!”
