Description

This week we transform The Best Friends Podcast into our version of one of the world’s most beloved game shows!
Players representing four Network partner organizations put their knowledge to the test with questions such as:
What is the only state where every individual shelter has reached the 90% save rate benchmark? 
How many eyelids do dogs have? 
According to a Best Friends study from 2020, what percentage of adults feel it is very important or essential to have no-kill shelters in their area? 

Do you know the answers, or would you need to Ask the Expert, Michelle Dosson from Norfolk Animal Care Center, for help? 
Learn how our players did on their way to securing a $1,000 unrestricted grant to help them save more lives as we play Who Wants to Be a Lifesaver?
