Dennis Leonardi and his dog Simba were announced the winners, based on having raised the most money for Providence Health Humboldt dog therapy program. “I’m very proud to have been a part of this contest,” Leonardi said, “and it was nice to be a part of something so positive. It was a fun experience, and it meant a lot to me,” he added, “and people were very generous and kind.” Leonardi and Simba raised almost $10,000 for the charity that was selected.
