Nominations for the 2012 Hero Dog Awards are now being accepted through March 26th! And if there’s anyone who can judge if a dog is worthy of a Hero Dog Award, it’s Kristin Bauer van Straten (Pamela Sywnford de Beaufort). The famously animal loving actress has been chosen as one of several judges for this year’s awards.
The Hero Dog Awards, started in 2010 by the American Humane Association, honor ordinary dogs who do extraordinary things. Kristin was a presenter for the 2011 Hero Dog awards.
If you know an extraordinary dog who deserves to be recognized for their service to others, you can send in your nomination here.
Public voting begins April 1st followed by an awards ceremony in Hollywood October 6, 2012.
