Known as the “Oscars® for Canines,”

glitzy gala presented by Lois Pope and the Lois Pope

Donna Mills, Monica Seles, and others.
The event was held to honor the five category
winners of the 2023 Hero Dog Awards. |

"We are thrilled that Christie
Brinkley co-hosted the 13th Annual Hero Dog Awards.
Christie has spent her entire life advocating for
animal welfare and that's exactly what we do here at
American Humane. It was an honor to have her join us
as we celebrated these heroes on both ends of the
leash" said Dr. Robin Ganzert, President and CEO of
American Humane. “And it’s a real pleasure to
welcome back fantastic long-time host and animal
lover Carson Kressley to our gala in Palm Beach.
Carson is a committed ambassador for all animals,
and especially our hero dogs.” |
The American Humane Hero Dog
Awards is an annual, nationwide competition that
recognizes America’s standout working dogs—often
ordinary dogs who do extraordinary things—such
as saving lives on the battlefield,
lending sight or hearing to a human companion,
or helping people achieve their goals.
|
Americans nominated hundreds of
inspiring dogs from across the country. From there,
five semi-finalists in five categories were chosen
to meet the American public, who voted for their
favorite
four-legged hero.
