TurfMutt Celebrates Mutt Madness Pups for National Puppy Day

You could say the TurfMutt Foundation has a soft spot for rescue pups. In celebration of National Puppy Day (March 23), we’re sharing the many ways that TurfMutt helps dogs in need.

Each year, the Foundation hosts the national pet adoption event, Mulligan’s Mutt Madness, in collaboration with the Kentucky Humane Society (KHS). In 2023 the event connected nine canines with their new owners. Over the years, Mutt Madness has matched more than 60 dogs with their forever families.

Mulligan the TurfMutt is one of those lucky pups. You may remember that she was adopted by her human, TurfMutt Foundation President and CEO Kris Kiser, at the 2019 Mutt Madness event.

Check out this video of Mulligan’s journey to become the TurfMutt Foundation’s spokesdog.

Additionally, the Foundation sponsors the TV show Lucky Dog on CBS, which shares heartwarming stories of rescue dogs and the families that adopt them. Check out the “Mulligan Minute” that aired recently about the mental health benefits of being outside in our own backyards.
