A local dog is in the running for a national competition.
Kentucky Farm Bureau says that Daisy, owned by Shelby and Lora Ennis of Elizabethtown, is one of five finalists for the People’s Choice Pup Award in the American Farm Bureau Federation’s 2024 Farm Dog of the Year competition.
The Ennises told KFB that Daisy showed up at their door one day, and after a week of searching for an owner they decided to keep the mixed-breed dog. Daisy proved to be a special dog.
The Ennises say Lora had a hard fall at home while Shelby was asleep, leaving her bleeding and dazed. Daisy ran upstairs and alerted Shelby, who found Lora and got her to the hospital.
Some time later, while walking at an area nature trail, Shelby and Daisy came upon a downed tree limb. When Shelby went to move it, Daisy discovered a man that was trapped in the brush. Shelby then contacted emergency responders.
The Ennises decided to enter Daisy in the People’s Choice Cup contest, and you can help Daisy bring home the trophy. Visit kyfb.com/vote4daisy Voting ends November 8.
