Doggie Duel

I listen to KISS 106.1 each morning on my way to work, and a few weeks ago, they launched their second annual Doggie Duel (i.e. a cute dog contest where anyone can enter a photo of their dog for a chance to win). Corey and I thought it would be fun to enter Roxy, not only because we think she's pretty cute, but an iPad is up for grabs and who wouldn't take a free iPad?? (Second place is a $200 gift card of some sort, which isn't too shabby either.) We went back and forth on what photo to include - do we go funny to help her stand out amongst the other entries, or do we go super cute? We finally settled on funny and went with our favorite shots of her playing fetch.


Once the contest began, we asked a few of our friends and family members to vote for her but didn't think too much more about it. Fast forward a week, and come to found today, she made it into the second round! This puts her in the top 50 of 1,400 contestants! I'm so glad we chose the awesome fetch photo Corey snapped of her --- I honestly think that helped her stand out amongst all her super cute, furry competitors.

If you'd like to help keep Roxy in the running, feel free to vote! (You'll be asked to register and then you'll have to wait for the confirmation email to arrive before you can vote, but your vote is greatly appreciated!) And make sure that when you vote, you give her a '10' to up her changes of making it further.

Who knows if she'll end up winning, but now we just think it's funny that Miss Roxy, our snorty, gasy, crazy little munchkin of a dog is up against some pretty cute competition.

Have a great weekend!
