According to the organizer\u2019s 2025 contest page, finalists are announced Sept. 15 and a winner named Sept. 18.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"669\" data-end=\"1017\">Mayzie\u2019s story is local at its core. She was adopted from <strong data-start=\"727\" data-end=\"750\">Foothill Dog Rescue<\/strong> in Shingle Springs and overcame abandonment and a serious bout of aspiration pneumonia before becoming a certified first responder therapy dog. She has since earned five American Kennel Club titles and is working toward a sixth.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1019\" data-end=\"1451\">Certified in June 2023, Mayzie and her handler, <strong data-start=\"1067\" data-end=\"1087\">Adrienne Steurer<\/strong>, have logged well over 100 visits to dispatch centers, fire stations, law-enforcement agencies, military units, and community events across Northern California and Nevada.
