TYDTWDay Photo Contest Winner

For Ouzie, Jr., it was just another day at the offices of IMC, a New Jersey-based marketing agency. But his participation in Pet Sitters International’s Take Your Dog To Work Day^® resulted in a $500 donation to the Tinton Falls Animal Care Center, a shelter operated by the Associated Humane Societies, Inc. in Tinton Falls, NJ.

Kristen Hartman, mom of Ouzie, Jr., a Brussels Griffon, uploaded his photo to the Professional Pooch Gallery at takeyourdog.com, the official site of Take Your Dog To Work Day.

 

“I just knew Ouzie, Jr. would win,” says Kristen. “When we received the notification, my whole office celebrated. I covered him with kisses and we had a special cake in his honor.”

Selected from more than six hundred entries in the Take Your Dog To Work Day photo contest, Ouzie, Jr. received $500 cash, a gift basket from the event sponsors and selected Tinton Falls Animal Care Center as the recipient of a $500 shelter donation.

 

For pet sitters, Take Your Dog To Work Day is a great way to give back to your community.  Organizing an event in your area helps promote pet adoption and also raises awareness of your business and the pet-sitting industry.
