The Farley Foundation will announce three winners on May 21 at 1 p.m. via Facebook. The owner of the “funniest”, “cutest” and “overall best” My Pet & I Selfies” will each receive a gorgeous, super plush Farley toy. Designed by the creator of the Farley character and the internationally syndicated comic strip For Better or For Worse®, this plush toy is approximately 15” x 11” and is a gorgeous embodiment of Lynn Johnston’s infamous English sheep dog. Help spread the word about the Farley Foundation and help us celebrate the human-animal bond by sending us your “My Pet & I Selfie”!
The Farley Foundation will post the best #MyPetandISelfies on our web site at www.farleyfoundation.org For full contest details, please visit www.farleyfoundation.org

Applications for Farley Foundation funding are made through veterinary clinics. Anyone concerned about the health of their pets should seek the assistance of their regular veterinarian.
Funding eligibility: Seniors receiving GIS, disabled individuals receiving either ODSP or CPP Disability, Ontario Works recipients, pets belonging to seniors’ care facilities, and women at risk of abuse who have entered a Violence Against Women (VAW) shelter (SafePet participants).
