Let's try to help Gabby Jack Ranch!

Hi all! OK - some of you will think this is a little silly, but here it goes anyway

.... Bissell is having a photo contest with the top 3 prizes being pretty nice donations to the pet related charity of the winners choice. I thought maybe we could all try to work on this as a team to help Jac get a nice start for her service organization. What are our chances of winning? Probably not great....but just like the lotto, it'll be fun trying. This is how it works: The top vote getters each week are moved onto the finals. In the finals the pictures are judged by "professionals" (since they are judging on coat condition, they probably mean dog professionals....so they should LOVE our labradoodles, right??? HA HA). I have entered already for this week and the next. But after that, if somebody else wants to enter, please feel free to take it over and I'll be happy to vote for you.

Here is the link to vote for my Ruby picture this week: http://www.bissell.com/Redirect.asp?RP_id=71720 . They ask for your email address, but they really won't send you anything (at least they didn't last year!). So let's all try to get our pics into the finals and see what we can do! Thanks in advance for your help

Thanks guys! Just wanted to add: I did talk to Jac about this before I started throwing her name around. She is on board with it

Great idea, in fact, I stopped my housecleaning to vote, now back to the cleaning (with bissell, of course)

sdrudge · 02-08-2009, 02:21 PM

Me too - my vote's going in!!

Maureen · 02-09-2009, 10:53 AM

I VOTED!!

Diane, would it help to add another doodle photo? I could add the "Brothers from different Litters" photo, or we can just concentrate on yours.

Hi Maureen - I was afraid of posting this because I didn't want anyone feeling slighted! You know? Like "who am I to be saying this is my picture...vote for me?" That's one of the reasons I checked with Jac first

It wouldn't help to put in more than one picture in the same week, as I think it would just split our votes (especially since we can only vote once). The top 5 vote getters from each week move onto the finals where the pics are then judged by "professionals" on "Expression, overall appearance, and condition of coat"....so I am assuming they mean some type of dog professional. I have already entered for next week too. But after that it would be great if all of you jump in with your best pics, too. This contest runs weekly through March, so we'll have 5 more weeks after next to try! I love your brothers pic...it is just too sweet! Thanks, Diane

Maureen · 02-09-2009, 01:25 PM

hey, don't worry about "slighting" !! I just want to keep it going for Gabby Jack Ranch!
So let me know and I'll send in this picture:

Seems like our doodle friends could vote for it, don't you think?

Cool idea! I voted and posted a request for others to vote on a parenting site where I am a host for a pet forum. I hope we're able to help!
