After yesterday's post, I have decided to host a little contest. Not sure what the prize is gonna be, but it'll be good, I promise!
All you have to do is email me your favorite photo of your dog (or pet)! *bonus points if your pet is inside your home in the photo!
EMAIL PHOTOS HERE:urbangraceinteriorsinc[at]gmail[dot]com
Please put in the subject line: photo contest
Along with your photo, please include your name, your dog's name, dog's breed (or where you rescued it from if its like my girls), and where you live (and if you have a blog)!
The best dog photo I receive wins the prize... and if you don't have a dog... I suppose I'll accept photos of cats, birds, ferrets, rabbits, anything furry or fluffy!
I'll be accepting photos for seven days (winner announced next Friday October 24th)... so if you don't have a good photo, you have seven days to take one!
[photos from Hallmark, one a card and the other from the book Dogs Antics & Attitudes, by Hallmark. (thanks Leah!)]
Um... I don't know that I could pick one! Plus I have TWO pups... so are multiple submissions allowed? ;)

LOVE this contest...going to dig up all my photos of Penny and Maple, get ready...I'm like you, not a mother of actual children just yet but mildly obsessed with photographing our dogs. Lovely idea Erika...I hope you'll post the photos people enter, even if they're not the winner.

This is just my blog, not an email for the contest, and the pics are in my apt, although you can't tell, it is still very collegesque, and not very fun to look at, but thes are two of the most handsome beasts I know. The golden is mine! Hope you enjoy their sweet faces as much as I do! http://laurawildsmith.blogspot.com/2008/10/four-legged-friends.html

I am determined to get my 130 lb pup on some furniture for a shot. J is going to wrench me and I'll likely create a furniture-stomping monster in the process!
I love this contest. Game on everyone!! xx

What a great idea. I've submitted my photo. It's a very arty shot...trust me, you do not want to see my place. It's a mess.

Oooooh. This IS a good one. Will rassle up some shots of our 185 lb danes. Prolly won't be arty as much as beefy!

Just submitted Olivia's pic. Hopefully she won't get too egocentric if she wins.

What a brillant idea! How fun this is going to be, but oh what a tough job for the you, "the judge". I'll have to see if Miss Kelly will let me take a photo of her! She did win a dog house and all the trims a couple of years ago.
Have a golden weekend!
