This award will recognize an animal welfare organization for its innovative approach to addressing the challenges of helping larger dogs find loving homes. The recipient will receive $20,000 to put toward their work. The award is part of MetLife Pet Insurance's collaboration with The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement (AAWA), a cohort of leaders on a mission to champion, advance, and unify the animal welfare profession. "Essential to MetLife Pet Insurance’s mission is helping pets find and stay in a home that is right for them and we are honored to present the Golden Beagle Award as part of this mission," said Brian Jorgensen, Head of Pet Insurance at MetLife. "We are inspired by the dedication and ingenuity of animal welfare organizations that are finding new ways to overcome the barriers that larger dogs face in finding their loving homes and excited to collaborate with AAWA to showcase and support these organizations and their life-saving missions."
