Baltimore, MD 1/6/2020 - On 12/13, The Buddy Foundation of Maryland (TBFMD) launched a campaign to find their first Canine Ambassador--the canine "face" or "snout" of the organization for one full year. Registrants submitted their photo and bio, and voting opened to the public on 12/17. Votes were tallied to reveal Morty Simendinger as the winner! The contest introduced us to so many other amazing pups...we've appreciated their participation and willingness to campaign hard: Edith, Blueprint, Widgeon, Rudy, Gracie, Morty, Fia, Coco, Tupelo, Mochi, Pepper, Cooper, Emmie, and Mattie. A heartfelt thanks goes out to all of them--they were an impressive group of candidates!

Morty will be featured on our annual report, social media platforms--Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn--newsletters, at events as the "pup repping pups" for TBFMD, and will receive an Amazon gift card! "Congratulations, Morty!"

And there's more: All voters, in addition to doing their part to help dogs who are waiting for treatments and cures, were entered into a drawing for their own Amazon gift card--we're hoping winner, Gerard Zuffante, enjoys his winnings!

We're helping dogs stay "healthy, happy, and home where they belong." Every day we're looking for ways to help more dogs get the urgent care they need to survive and thrive, staying close to the people they love. Thank you for all you do to make that possible.
