Pet Photo Contest Deadline

National Dog Week | Day 7

Sadly, our National Dog Week is coming to an end today, Saturday, September 25th, at midnight. That's also the deadline for your pet photo contest entries. You have 'till midnight to Show Us Your Tongue. The entries are still coming in! For some strange reason, everything around me appears to be PINK. The good news is, now I know all of your names, I can even spell them backwards, if you like. 

I can't tell you how exciting this mini-contest has been. I have visited a multitude of tongue posts and laughed my tail off. This was an unexpected party in the animal blog-dom and for that we have ourselves to thank. We're one enthusiastic chunk of the blog world.

Most of the entries are already posted. You can check them out by clicking on the tab titled "Show Us Your Tongue" at the top of my blog.

Because of the multitude of entries, I did NOT want to be the sole judge. I can't even come up with a criterion to base my judgment on. Therefore, I am going to post a VOTING POLL on my sidebar. Again, because of the sheer volume of entries, I would like to allow more than one vote. I'm going to rely on your honor and set the rules here:

VOTING BEGINS: this Sunday, September 26th at 10 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time (West Coast)
VOTING ENDS: next Sunday, October 3rd at 10 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time

The results and the winners will be announced on Dear Twinkie, on October 5th
May the best tongues win...

LIMIT YOURSELVES TO FIVE VOTES!!! Pup Scout's Honor!


Here are some photos from the cat section of my personal Tongue Library:

The curly cat tongue

I only posted kitten pictures today because they are  a minority and I always root for the undercat. 

Have a fabulous Saturday! And don't forget to join us on our Saturday Blog Hop!

Uh Twinkie, I think you may have made an error. You have the voting beginning & ending at the exact same time. Or maybe that's on purpose?? BOL

Just occurred to me... perhaps you meant a week later??

Aha! I just clicked on the contest entries & you have the contest going from Sun. to Tuesday. Okay... that makes sense. Maybe I need to cut down on the pain meds.

Wow do you have some seriously impressive entries. Despite an unreasonably large pic collection, I'm lacking any good tongue shots. Have to keep my hands off Photoshop to be fair. ;)
