Winners Of The National Drontal ‘Give Your Dog A Bone’ Awards Recently Announced

The awards were designed to celebrate the extraordinary and unique bond between a dog and its owner, Drontal – Britain’s favourite wormer[i] started the nationwide search for the country’s most loveable, heroic and entertaining canines! TV vet Emma Milne comments: “We are a nation of dog lovers, so we should celebrate all the things about dogs that help enrich the lives of their owners. Perhaps your dog is heroic or just plain silly, either way they are all individually special to their owner and this competition was a great chance to give your dog a bone!” The competition launched to celebrate the introduction of new Drontal ‘Bone’, the only worming product in the shape of a bone, designed to help owners worm their dog more frequently. Owners had the chance to enter their pooch into one of four categories. The categories were:

• The Bonies’ ‘Special Bond’ Award: This award celebrates the dogs that have formed a special bond with their owner. We are looking for stories and pictures of dogs that have helped a family member through a difficult time, working dogs that deserve recognition, or simply dogs that encapsulate the definition of ‘man’s best friend’.
• Most entertaining video: From footage of dogs doing clever tricks, to funny moments accidently caught on camera or even your dog singing along to its favourite tune - if you have a video of your dog that makes you smile, we want to see it!
• Most heroic pet: We are looking for your stories of dog bravery including heroic acts and extraordinary tales of survival.
• Most loveable mutt: In this category, you can enter any picture that demonstrates why your dog is unique and lovable. It could be because you love dressing your pet up or just an adorable picture of your pet, we even want pictures of dogs that may not be the prettiest but who you wouldn’t change for the world!
