Say "Thank You" to Your Veterinarian By Nominating Him/Her for Hartz® Veterinarian of the Year Contest
They care for pets during flea and tick season. They fix all the cuts, bumps and bruises. They soothe pets while gently giving shots that ensure health. They are veterinarians. While no one loves pets more than owners, their dose of TLC always hits the spot. Now pet owners can say "thank you" for emergency visits and calm reassurances by nominating their vet for the Second Annual HARTZ® "Veterinarian of the Year" contest.

According to Bob Devine, CEO and President of The Hartz Mountain Corporation, "People want their veterinarian to know how much they appreciate what they do and Hartz is proud to help promote that special Human-Animal Bond that they foster."

The Hartz Mountain Corporation knows that having a great veterinarian can save both heartache and headache. Now it actually pays to have a veterinarian that you think is tops. Tell Hartz why you think your vet is a lifesaver and what they do to stand out in your community in 250 words or less, and you could win a prize. Also, as a reward for their work, the winning veterinarian will receive $5,000 cash----quite a way to say thank you! All entries must be postmarked by July 31, 2002 and received by August 14, 2002. Winner will be notified on or about November 15, 2002.

This is a chance to let veterinarians throughout the United States know just how much their care and concern has meant to pet owners over the years. They keep a most important member of families happy and healthy, and now, just by doing so; you can both win big. And that's nothing to bark at.
