Send us your Doggie Tales
Your dog may not have saved Timmy from the well, or go to the fridge to fetch your drink, but to you, just wagging his tail is enough to make you smile.

Rover 411 solutes those every day heroes; those furry friends that make us feel welcomed and loved regardless of the kind of day we are having. We want to hear about your everyday hero. Submit your dog stories to info@Rover411.com.

We want your opinion:
The 2009 World’s Ugliest Dog Contest was held over the weekend at the Sonoma-Marin Fair in Petaluma, CA, crowning Pabst, a boxer-mix owned by Miles Egstad from Citrus Heights, CA. Pabst upset the reigning 2008 winner, Racal, a Chinese Crested. With a huge under bit and sweet personality, Pabst was an audience favorite, and won over the celebrity judges, TV personality Karen “Doc” Halligan, Jon Provost, Timmy from Lassie, and Brian Sobel, a Sonoma-Marin Fair board member.

Aside from Pabst’s owner, Egstad, who won over $2,600 in cash and prizes, dogs from the local humane society also made out with a chance for adoption. There was also an Ugly is the New Beautiful Fashion Show with rescue dogs and models. The World’s Ugliest Dog Contest is in its 21st year and has been trademarked by the Sonoma-Marin Fair.

So, is this all in good fun, or has the fair gone too far? Bark at us at info@Rover411.com
