Do you think your dog is cute enough to be a mascot? If so, the Los Angeles Fire Department wants to hear from you – and see a photo.
The fire department’s fundraising team is hosting a contest where you can nominate your pooch and vote for your favorites.
The Howling Heroes Mascot contest is soliciting entries and votes until 8 p.m. Wednesday. Each vote costs $1, which supports the LAFD Foundation in funding essential equipment and programs, such as the department’s canine therapy program and its search and rescue team, the nonprofit says.
A panel of judges, including Fire Chief Kristin Crowley, will evaluate the top 10 vote-getters and select the winner, who will be recognized across all LAFD platforms, be featured in a segment on KTLA 5 News, get a professional photo shoot – in addition to bragging rights.
Second and third-place winners will also receive a gift basket of LAFD apparel.
Tap here to enter the Howling Heroes contest or vote for your favorite dogs.
