duCret Photographer Assigned on Rin Tin Tin Tour



Rin Tin TIn has a Hollywood star!

Beginning in September, a duCret staff member was assigned as tour photographer for Rin Tin Tin and attended American Humane Association's fund raising kick-off, ‘Hero Dog Awards’ with Whoopi Goldberg, NYC’s Singing Policeman, Daniel Rodriquez, Victorial Stillwell, Orlando Bloom and other TV stars at the National Arts Club in NYC. Rin Tin Tin, recently assigned as AHA’s new national spokesdog, rang the Stock Exchange Bell on September 7th, honoring all 911 service dogs, several of whom gave their lives in the trade tower rescue effort. This kicked off a huge country-wide tour effort to bring more awareness to animals in service to humanity.



Continuing on to LA with 'Love Your Pet University' President Lorraine Zdeb, the duCret photographer then attended the red carpet celebrity gala, ‘Hero Dog Awards’ TV Special, which was aired on the Hallmark Channel on November 11. This very first tribute to service dogs of America drew a huge celebrity crowd including; co-hosts Carson Kressley and Betty White, Victoria Stilwell, Peter Fonda, Mickey Rooney, Paula Abdul, Prince Lorenzo Borghese, Tinsley Mortimer, Orlando Bloom and about 30 other participating television stars. On December 23rd, a re-run of the ‘Hero Dog Awards’ is scheduled and on December 12th and 16th , the Hallmark Channel will air the ‘Hollywood Christmas Parade’, with Grand Marshall, Marie Osmond and co-hosts Erik Estrada and Laura McKenzie, to which Rin Tin Tin made an appearance accompanied by a brand new 20 foot balloon of Rin Tin Tin that was added to the parade this year. In May 2012, and in alliance with the Bridgewater-Branchburg Holiday Inn Express, Rin Tin Tin will make several personal appearances in NJ, in a huge three-day tribute to service dogs, war veterans and service members of the general community, to which duCret artists also will partake.
