Vote for Baron in “Greatest Montana Dog” Contest

Step_3

One of the local TV stations in Missoula, the CBS affiliate KPAX-TV, is holding a contest to choose the "Greatest Montana Dog."  Wendy M., who adopted blind Stoney and blind-and-deaf Baron from us back in June, entered Baron in the contest, along with this photo from Baron’s recent "five steps to a great campfire meal" outing.  Baron is currently leading in the votes, but a yellow Lab is trying to close the gap.

You can vote for Baron on the KPAX site here.

You will need to register, but it’s really quick and takes just a few seconds. You can also vote up to five times a day for the same candidate.  (What is this, Chicago?)

We think it would be wonderful to have a blind-and-deaf dog win this contest, and show lots of people how a disabled animal can make such a terrific pet. 

The contest ends tomorrow, August 5th at 9 p.m. Mountain time.

Thank you!

    I just voted 5 times for Baron. He’s so very special, he deserves to win.
    The write up says that he is 3 years old. I thought he was still just a pup.

    “What is this, Chicago?” you wonder. Heavens no. Chicago is much better. You probably have to be alive to vote for Baron, whereas Chicago has never discriminated against the mortality-challenged. A vote for Baron’s opponent would probably be recorded. Chicago would not allow such nonsense. And there would appear to be no chance to receive a bottle of wine or a favor from your Precinct Captain in return for a vote for Baron. We in Chicago disdain such amateurism. Nonetheless, I’ve cast my five votes.

    Wendy, I’m so glad that Baron got such a good home. I came close to taking him home with me when I first met him, so you were lucky he was still there for you. It appears to me to be a great match up! Mike in Oregon
