Meet Mushroom: People’s Gas’ New Ambassador
In a recent competition held by People’s Gas, a Rottweiler named Mushroom emerged as the clear winner to become the utility’s new ambassador. Mushroom’s “strong paws and adorable puppy eyes” captured the hearts of thousands of voters, earning him the title.
Promoting Safe Digging Practices
As the new ambassador, Mushroom will be featured in various promotions next year to raise awareness about safe digging practices. It is important for individuals to call 811 at least 48 hours before starting any digging project to prevent damage to underground utilities and ensure the safety of both people and property.
Meet the Finalists Mushroom Beat Out
- Apple: “I like digging holes, splashing water, sitting on the sofa, and eating cheese string.”
- Ivy: “Enjoyed digging, water rescue lessons, stealing shoes, and wrestling with my brother.”
- Qiao Lin: “She loves digging, and the fact that she only has three legs doesn’t stop her. She also loves sitting at her grandma’s feet and listening to her do puzzles.”
- Forget: “He relied on scent when digging because he was deaf. His family called him ‘a 50-pound bowling ball full of happy energy!'”
Each of the finalists brought their own unique qualities to the competition, but Mushroom’s charm and personality ultimately won over the hearts of the voters.
