Dr. Leslie Capin entered her dog “Dr. Papidies” in the competition more than 12 weeks ago. Dr. Papidies was rescued from a puppy mill and given to Capin by a friend. Capin had promised that she would split any winnings between two animal shelters in Colorado. The Max Fund and the Denver Dumb Friends League each will receive $500,000.
