Hello friends!

I will be announcing the winner of my Stuff my Doghouse Challenge shortly. First, i need to share with you all the additional items that folks donated to the Homeward Bound Pug Rescue.

You guys, without a doubt, are some of the most generous and thoughtful friends a girl could have. You really stepped up and rose to my challenge, and for that, I thank you!

As you may know, my dear girl Payton had her comment-a-thon last week. Because of all the comments that were posted, Payton was able to get a big bag of Taste of the Wild food.

Thank you Payton! You are the awesomest!

Gracie the agility pug, gave a nice soft cuddle bed. Thanks Gracie!

Minnie and Mack gave shampoo and ear cleaner. I know that will be put to good use! Way to go guys!

Thanks to Payton's friend Christy for giving a comfy bed.

Those Slimmer pugs got a hold of their Momma plastic and each picked out something for the pugs! They got a bag of foodables, 2 nylabone wishbones, an Earthbound Shampoo and a furminator! So cool Slimmers!

I also have it on good authority that Winston, and Gen & Foo are sending something along too!

Check it out! My totally stuffed doghouse!

Can you believe it?!

There were a total of 24 participants in the challenge. we will be sending out 10 blankets, and 18 toys for the pugs. We went over to good old Random.org and plugged in the numbers to select a winner.

Before I announce the winner of the contest, I will tell you about the prize package.

First is this cute print Mom ordered online.

 She got it on Fab.com, 

Fab.com is a fun site that has sales on really cool things every day. They even have special sales on Thursdays just for pets!

In addition to the print, we will be sending the winner a blanket, just like the ones we made for the rescue pups. You can see mine that I got for my birthday in this next picture.

Lastly, the winner will receive a 15.00 gift certificate to Pugs in the Kitchen, to get themselves some delicious treats.

Soooooooo..... without further adieu', the winner of the Wilma the Pug Stuff my Doghouse Challenge is....

The Urban Hounds!  Congratulations guys, and thanks again!

...and the Winner Is! and other random business

Team Beaglebratz!

Congratz Shiloh and Shasta! You are the winners of our Pawmetto treats giveaway.

Just have your Mom email your address to my Mom and she will pass it along to the folks at Pawmetto. I hope you love the treats as much as we did, and thanks for playing.

We chose the winner via Random.org, and lucky number 2 came up!

I plan on doing the Saf-T-Pet giveaway this week to help kick off the Pet Safety Awareness month. I will give that it's own post though. I will let you know that it is going to be a photo contest. So have your people start documenting any safe practices in anticipation for winning your own safety kit.

With that business out of the way, I have a couple more things on my agenda today. First, I would like to officially wish you all a Happy New Year! I hope you find tons of treats, laps, fun and good health in 2012. I can't wait to spend another year sharing antics with all my good friends out there in blogville.

If you can imagine, tomorrow will be my second blogoversary! I plan on doing a special post, so be sure to check back.

Last year, I did a Best and Worst of 2010 awards post. I want to do another one this year. Kind of along the lines of the Grammys, or even like in the Enquirers best and worst dressed fashion.

I would love to have your input, so if you would like to peruse last years post for some ideas, and submit your own nominations, that would be awesome! Perhaps a panel of judges will be enlisted for this years event! I have plenty of trophy choices, so don't limit yourselves to last years categories. Oh, this is gonna be fun!

Before I sign off, there is some serious Sunflower Power of the Paw needed for our friend Pip.

Please stop by and offer him some love to help get him through this health scare. 

There is also some Sunflower business to address, so keep your calenders open for a meeting girls.

That's all for now friends, must get back to bossing around the parents on Dad's last day of break!

I'm a Winner!

 

Winning Caption: 'For just $19.95 we'll send you not one but TWO of our ergonomically correct Pugfoam Pillows!' submitted by Wilma W.

Back in July already, I won the monthly caption contest over at Linden Line Designs.

I was so very excited! I was able to choose a beautiful collar of my own for a prize.

Well, let me tell you, it was no easy decision. There are so many beautiful and fun designs to choose from, I wanted one of each. But Mom said I have to pick just one. Meh! She wouldn't give up the credit card.

So, being that I am the founding member of the Sunflower Club, and there was a beautiful sunflower pattern, that is what I chose.

As you can see, I look so good in my new collar, I have chosen a photo of me modeling it for my September header picture.

I must admit, Brigitte was a little miffed that she didn't get one also.

" What the heck does this say? Congratulations for winning our photo caption contest?!"

"Where's mine?"

I told her I would share mine, but she really wants her own. I was looking forward to bragging rights, but I gotta say, it doesn't feel like I thought it would. So I am totally stealing Mom's credit card and ordering Brigitte her own!

"heh, heh, heh"

I encourage you all to go over and check out all the great designs on the site. I also hope you enter this month's caption contest to win your very own!

By the way, Brigitte is by no means suffering without having her own collar. She has totally taken ownership of the dogs house. She is calling it "Chateau Britte"! She's in there all the time!

Check out her new porch rug...

The Stubby Memorial Earth Day Challenge ~ Winner!

Hi Everybody! Sluggo here. It was easy for me to take over the blog today, since my sisters are running around getting ready for their stupid Sunflower party.

First, I would like to thank everyone for sharing how they are helping to save Mother Earth.

I think you all rock, you have made Stubby proud!



I won't keep you in suspense any longer. I am very happy to announce the winner of the challenge is none other than Archie!

Congratulations, Archie!

We are putting together your prize pack and will be putting it in the mail soon.

What will it be, you ask?

You will receive a re-usable canvas shopping bag with the Challenge emblem printed on it.

What's inside will remain a secret.

Don't you just love surprises?!

We Have aWinner!!

We have a winner for the Swamp Cooler Doggie Vest offered in my first giveaway.

So I had Mom write down everyone's name in the order they commented and assign them a number 1-14 (No opposable thumbs or I would have done it myself, you know the drill)

Then we went to Random.org and used their random number generator

Then I clicked on the Generate button (this part was fun)

And viola' the winner is...

Number 6, who happens to be Klaus and Natty over at twopugsinapod.

Natty is one of my Sunflower Sisters. She said she will begrudgingly allow her brother Klaus to use the vest if they win, cuz he is a black pug and gets pretty hot in the sun.

I know how hard it is to share Natty, hats off to you for being so generous. (May have gotten you a couple points in the good karma column seeing as you won and all!)

 Congratulations Natty and Klaus!!

I really enjoyed having something valuable for  us flatfaces in particular to offer for this contest. Thanks to the folks over at csn stores

for the opportunity to do the giveaway.

As for the rest of you my friends, better luck next time. I wish you all could have won!!
