Add this to your favorite and vote every day!

Special thanks goes out to my co-worker, Jackie for bringing this contest to my attention. I am so excited!!!!!

Howllo Fellow Hound and Photo Contest Lovers:

Many of my dear readers may remember that Chaps entered the Sr. Hounds Abound Calendar contest for 2009. My Mom and I did a big photo shoot and everyone helped us pick this picture of him.

Well, now I am using this same picture in a contest that Cincinnati Bell Yellow Pages is running. If Chaps get’s the most votes he will be on the cover of the Yellow Pages and he will be awarded 1,000 dollars which he will promptly send to House of Puddles after he pays taxes. Actually, we will check into that and maybe he would not have to pay taxes since he would want the check made out to HOP which is a 501(c)3 not for profit rescue.

Hahahaha – listen to me, I am already acting like he won. Well, a Mom can’t be too sure or too proud! I just signed him up and I am waiting for my confirmation e-mail. I will post the details very soon. I know that you can vote for him everyday. I already saw 3 or 4 bassets in the contest.

Now I am getting nervous. Can you imagine? 1,000 dollars toward our goal of 10,000 dollars. That would put at 7,000 dollars.

OK – get your voting finger ready and I will be back in touch.

Go Chaps Go! Hop on!

More later….Cat, Chaps and Emma

    I just voted and WOW that was easy!

    Can’t wait until tomorrow lol

    Everyone, we can do this again. It is a group effort so tell all of your friends and family.

    If Chaps gets on the cover of the Yellow Pages maybe I can have a blurb about HOP and a website address. Exposure, exposure and more exposure – Chaps is our Mayor! Go Mayor!

    I voted too! I plan on voting everyday also. I’m not sure how they count but after I voted it said number of votes was 1/5. Before I voted it said 0/5 so maybe tomorrow it’ll say 0/6? Weird. Oh well, all I know is I voted!

  14. January 16th, 2009 | 8:20 am

    I know – I can’t figure out if they give a tally or what. I am going to e-mail them.

    I think it has something to do with you are allowed to vote for 5 different dogs every day.

    I hope I can find out more about our votes!

    Hmm weird when I voted it said 1/5 also?!

    Now I’ve voted for different people before but I always had to register, please tell me I didn’t goof up lol

  16. January 16th, 2009 | 9:21 am

    No – you do not have to register. If you try to vote for Chaps again from your same e-mail, it will say “Sorry, you already voted for this dog today”. I will post some updates as soon as I find out.

    That is too funny Nin! I am going to send it to Obama. He should have time to fit it in everyday! Especially on Tuesday – I don’t think he has much going on! LOL

    He said that picking the family dog has been harder than his cabinet! hehehehe

    Hi Doll,
    Since Ronald will be @ the Inauguration I’ll have him remind Barack on Tues.!!!I feel like i am on a first name basis with him!!!
    Did he really say that about picking a dog!!!!!That was 2 funny!
    xoxoxo,
    Nin
    P.S. He should be able to fit it in since the oath of office is only 37 words long!!!

  20. January 16th, 2009 | 4:04 pm

    haha –

    Nin, he really did say that about the dog. I bet Ronald is so excited. Hopefully, he can get in the Mayor’s request for some votes!

    Political animals have to stick together!
