The RCMP is inviting young people across the country to help name thirteen German Shepherd puppies that will be born at the Police Dog Service Training Center this year.
The rules are simple. Only kids between the ages of 4 to 14 years old may enter, contestants can suggest only one name, the name must start with the letter “S”, the name must be one or two syllables and must have no more than nine letters, contestants must live in Canada and entries must be received online by March 16th.
Kids should always get their parent's or guardians' permission before submitting personal information such as their name and phone number to any website.
The thirteen children whose puppy names are selected will each receive a laminated 8 X 10-inch photo of the puppy they named, a plush dog called Justice and an RCMP water bottle. For information on how to enter online go to your favourite search engine and type in Name the Puppy Contest 2023. Although there can be only 13 winners the names not selected for the contest will be considered for other puppies born during the year.
