Grab your Camera — We’re having a photo contest!

View this email in a browser. [[link removed]] [[link removed]]Dear John,

With the abundance of advice to social distance, shelter-in-place, and
self-quarantine, we at the Animal Legal Defense Fund thought it might be nice to
focus on some of the positives of this unique situation: being at home with our animals!

We’re not sure how long the current circumstances will remain, but for the
moment all of our staff are working from home and cuddling up with our Companion
Coworkers.

To highlight this positive point, we declared it “Stay At Home With Your Dog
Day!” And shared photos of our “Companion Coworkers” working hard ( or more accurately — hardly working! ) by our side.

We had so much fun, we want to invite you to join us for a friendly photo competition and share photos
[[link removed]] of your “Office Mutt-Mates” — as so many of us adjust to working from home. The winning
photo will get an Animal Legal Defense Fund Swag Bag with a T-shirt, stickers,
pins, and more!

To submit a photo, you can post it on Facebook [[link removed]] , Twitter [[link removed]] , or Instagram [[link removed]] — and tag the Animal Legal Defense Fund and use the hashtag
#StayAtHomeWithYourDogDay. Or, you can upload your photos here. [[link removed]] The deadline to compete is 3/27 — but photos are always welcome.

Show off your #DeskDogs and #ConferenceCallCats! Humorous hashtags are
appreciated and encouraged!

Not only do animals provide us companionship, but they can also help reduce
stress, be good listeners, and even help remind you to stay active — for
example, by taking your dog on a walk.

We know not everyone has a furry or feathered family member at home, but animal
companionship can help keep spirits up. If you are able, consider fostering an
animal from a local animal shelter or rescue group during this period — as many
dogs and cats are in need of direct care while local governments and businesses
are decreasing office staff. Or you can volunteer to take an older neighbor’s
dog on a walk, for a Fido fix.

Social distancing doesn’t have to mean isolation — so let’s take care of each
other and have some photo fun!

For the animals,

Stephen Wells
Executive Director
