Oh well. Maybe someday. I should get some Harry Potter costume for the dogs. But since I can’t sew, making them myself would be way too much work!

Congrats! It was a fun contest. I’ll do another one, probably a different format though. Maybe for some toys and treats. Or maybe some home design from Outer Banks.

Vote here, be sure to read the entrants posts!

(This is a sticky post which will stay up until the contest is over.)

Our entrants are:

1. Ellen Leigh and her Shelties Bea and Byrdie!
2. Lisa and Puppy
3. Maine Millers
4. Johann The Dog
5. The Tiny Dogs!

And here is the poll. You *should* be able to vote once a day. And this will close on Sunday, Noon, July 29th (extended one day since we started a day late – Mountain Time). If you find you can’t vote more than once please comment or let me know. Yes, you can vote for yourself, and you can beg.. errr.. ask your friends to come vote for you, too.

$poll->active = false;

I have a ton of comments and emails to respond too. Probably I’ll start the voting tonight, or early tomorrow morning. Sorry about the delay!

And it’s not just any old wimpy contest.
Nope, this is a good contest. A contest you will want to participate in. A contest with a great prize.

Not a prize that you will just put in your closet and forget about. Nope. Not a prize that you will look at in a year and think oh boy, another piece of junk in my house.

The prize is not worth only $5, or $10, or even only $20… but it’s going to be worth $30!

The prize, because I know you want to know that first, before you know the contest details, is a $30.00 gift certificate to Doggone Good.com. Now I don’t know about you, but I can spend a heck of a lot more than $30 at that site. I love it and I have a great deal of fun, and functional, items from there.

The Rules

3. At the close of this contest, a poll will be put up and you, and your friends, will be able to submit votes on who most deserves this prize.

• Time line for writing: Noon Monday July 16 through Noon Sunday July 22, 2007

Entries will be ended on Noon July 22, 2007, Mountain Daylight Time (that is my time and since I have such a hard time with time zones that’s what you get lol).
