First Prize | | | Oscar and Bella Honorable Mention | | | Snuggles Honorable Mention | | | | | | Zuess and Cinnamon Honorable Mention |  | | Rosie Honorable Mention | | | Mr. Gizmo Honorable Mention |  | | Bella Honorable Mention |  | | A very late entry in the contest that received a large number of comments. "Money" was a very popular pet. Honorable Mention | | The criteria used to determine the winner included the pet photos with the highest ratings and the most comments and ratings. Other entries that garnered high ratings and comments won “Honorable Mention.” (I also had help from my 7 year old grandson!) First prize is a color pastel drawing of Ziggy. Honorable Mention winners receive charcoal drawings of their cute pets. Winning prizes artist is Norm Zeigler, a Long Beach, California artist. For all practical purposes, this contest was complete weeks ago. All of the votes were in and counted. And the winner (Ziggy) was chosen. Photos were slowly being submitted. But, those in the winning group had received a considerable number of ratings and comments already. And then – along came “Money” in the photo titled “I Miss You.” That photo was the only photo receiving ratings and comments for weeks! All of the comments were glowing and kind. Most were from genuine people – some were sent by the same person over and -over. (I guess they really, really wanted the photo to win!) Anyway, the photo received “Honorable Mention” status because of the enthusiasm of “Money” fans and the vast number of comments. Also, “Money” is a Stafford Bull Terrier, my favorite breed! I have raised Stafford Bull Terriers in the past and I fully understand the compassion in the comments shared by those who knew “Money” and his owner. Reading the comments took me back to those days and brought a smile to my heart. Thank you to all participants! Your participating added to the fun of this contest! Please return soon and participate in our upcoming photo contests. In the meantime, you can still share your favorite pet photos here...
