Mutt Madness: Rescue Dogs Steal the Show at Equip 2025, 13 Dogs Find Homes
The TurfMutt Foundation’s 7th Annual Mulligan’s Mutt Madness, held in partnership with the Kentucky Humane Society (KHS) at Equip Exposition 2025, was a huge success with 13 shelter dogs finding their forever homes. A beloved Equip tradition, the Foundation also presented a $10,000 donation to KHS.

“It’s incredible that 13 lucky dogs left Equip to start their new lives with people who have a soft spot for the green industry and dogs in need,” says Kris Kiser, President and CEO of the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI) and the TurfMutt Foundation. “On behalf of Equip and TurfMutt, I want to extend our warmest congratulations to the new adopters and welcome them into our TurfMutt ‘Howl of Fame.’”
Over the years, Mutt Madness has matched more than 100 dogs with their humans, including PET’s own Jessica Johnson and Winston. “It’s hard to beat seeing great dogs find great people,” says Alisa Gray, President & CEO of KHS. “This year, we had Equip attendees coming to our shelter the next day to adopt dogs they met at the event. Mulligan’s Mutt Madness is the event that just keeps on giving!”
