Thank you for all of your entries! Keep sending photos, we will enter them into the next years contest!
***A note to those who may wonder how the judging is done. We do not necessarily pick the best 'shot' photo, we choose the ones that have an awe factor, the ones we think everyone can relate too. And the ones that support what our company stands for : care and well being of animals. A great quality picture always helps too!! Thank you to all of our 'proffessional' photographers who have submitted images! We appreciate the time it takes and hope that you may get some refferal business from your links here on our site!
