JLT Residents, could your dog be the neighbourhood's first Chief Dog Officer?
Nominate your pooch for a chance for them to win the collar of honour
Dog owners, if you live or work in one of Dubai’s most pet-friendly neighbourhoods, Jumeirah Lakes Towers, we have some barking good news for you. They are on the lookout for JLT’s first-ever Chief Dog Officer (CDO). We’re being fur real!
As the neighbourhood’s Chief Dog Officer, your dog’s role will be to champion JLT’s active pet scene and encourage paw-sitive interactions among dogs and their humans alike.

The responsibilities of the Chief Dog Officer are outlined by JLT as:
- Welcome new dogs and pet parents to the neighbourhood
- Encourage friendly and respectful behaviour in shared spaces, including the dog park
- Highlight JLT’s pet-friendly cafés, walking routes, and outdoor community spots on social media
- Participate in neighbourhood gatherings and pet-friendly events
- Promote clean, considerate and responsible use of common areas
- Support and engage with local pet businesses across the community
Sounds like something your pet will be great at? Don’t paws for a moment and sign them up (and it’s really easy, too).

All you have to do is submit a photo with a short note explaining why they deserve the title on this website here.
Do note that entries are open only until November 30.

The final selection will be determined through a combination of public voting and review with community partners.
Oh, and before your dog gives you the puppy eyes for working too hard, you can let them know that they will get a reward for all the paw-some work they’ve done.
JLT has stated that the winning pup will receive:
- The title of “JLT’s Chief Dog Officer” for one year
- A one-year Gold Membership at Noble Veterinary Clinics, JLT
- Dhs500 voucher from Pawsome Friends
- Dhs200 voucher from Splendour Fields
- Freshly prepared meats and treats from Furchild Pet Nutrition
Good luck to all the pups and their owners!
