The twelfth series of the programme hit our screens in April and has wrapped up last week.
Alison took to Instagram last night to share a reel about the much-loved programme, even though it's finished, so this could mean that she'll make a return as host.
In the clip the presenter can be seen talking about a dog called Spencer.
Alison says: "Well, whoever takes him on are going to have the best dog ever.

Alison was revealed as late Paul O'Grady's replacement on For The Love of Dogs in January.
The legendary star sadly passed away in March last year aged 67.
For The Love of Dogs has been on our screens since 2012.

At the start of the year, The Sun revealed that This Morning's Alison was the front runner to become the new host, and ITV later confirmed the news.
Alison Hammond's glam transformation
Alison said: “I am very aware that I can never replace the iconic Paul in this wonderful series, but if I can continue to shine a light on the brilliant work done at Battersea and help to tell the stories of these beautiful dogs, then it will be an absolute privilege to give it my all.
"I can’t wait to share the joy of their searches for new loving forever homes and hopefully make lots of furry friends of my own along the way!”
But since taking on her new role, Alison has received a lot of backlash from fans.
Just last week Alison hinted that she was leaving the show as she hit back at critics.
Many have shared their opinion that Alison isn't right for the job.
Taking to Instagram to celebrate the final episode of her first-run on the programme, she made a very telling comment which hinted at her having no future on the programme.
Re-sharing the promo poster for the show, Alison wrote: "Final episode of For The Love Of Dogs."
She then cryptically added: "I loved every minute of it."
Having referred to the role in past tense, Alison failed to give any form of hope to viewers that she would be returning to the programme.
Others have spotted three "clues" pointing out why Alison isn't comfortable around pooches, while others have spotted an "obvious giveaway" why she's not right for the job.

Earlier this month ITV viewers stated "we can't take much more of this" as they threatened to switch off in their droves.
At the same time, broadcaster ITV defended the bubbly Brummie - yet wouldn't confirm her future on the adorable pooch-perfect series.
Alison Hammond - For The Love Of Dogs
Comment by Lucy Murgatroyd, Showbiz reporter for The Sun Online.
Alison Hammond has received a fair bit of criticism since taking over the For The Love Of Dogs presenting role from the late Paul O'Grady.
But just minutes into the first episode, viewers slammed the host for being "scripted".
Others weren't impressed when it was first announced because Alison doesn't own any animals, unlike Paul, who owned three pooches himself.
Despite that, some have since had a change of heart.
Alison has big shoes to fill following on from Paul, who presented the show from 2012 to 2023.
It's not fair to compare them as she clearly does loves dogs and you don't have to own one to be a dog lover.
She has proven herself as a broadcaster on all of her shows and she can handle live TV like a professional, so doesn't deserve the backlash.
