Vote now to choose Chicago's next "Ambassadog" for Peoples Gas
CHICAGO - Voting is currently open to determine which Chicago dog will become the new safe digging "ambassadog" for Peoples Gas.
The winning dog will play a crucial role in reminding Chicago residents to call 811 at least two days before beginning any outdoor digging project.
When property owners call 811, technicians will mark the locations of underground utility lines for free, ensuring no lines are damaged and everyone stays safe.
