Maddie's Fund®/Petfinder.com Marketing Competition 2008

Maddie's Fund® and Petfinder.com are holding another $300,000 marketing competition for Petfinder.com member shelters and rescues.

Animal organizations that have created successful strategies to find homes for hard to place dogs and cats are urged to apply. "Hard to place" includes elderly, blind, deaf, disfigured, black, shy, or plain pets, or cats and dogs that require in-home medical or behavioral care.
