Farm dogs can be an invaluable part of a farmer’s operation, and these hard-working canines are once again being recognized in American Farm Bureau Federation’s Farm Bureau Farm Dog of the Year contest.
Farmers are invited to submit nominations for Farm Dog of the Year.
Desired attributes for the winning dog include helpfulness to farmers and their families, playfulness and obedience. Nominations for the contest include photos, written responses to questions and optional video clips. Eligibility guidelines and other contest details can be viewed at fb.org/land/fdoty. Applications will close July 14.
Farm dog owners also must be Farm Bureau members to enter the competition. Learn how to become a Virginia Farm Bureau member at vafb.com/membership-at-work/membership.
