Voting is currently underway at www.herodogawards.org.

In addition to honoring the eight category winners, canine superstar Rin Tin Tin, who bravely served the U.S. Military during World War I and went on to become an American icon and movie idol, will be recognized with a special "Legacy Award," presented to one of his direct descendants, along with the dog's human handler. A scripted tribute, retelling Rin Tin Tin's incredible journey from war orphan to one of the most famous dogs on the planet, will be narrated by beloved actor and comedian Mickey Rooney.
