Announcing a "Patriotic Pets" Photo Contest!


It's "pawty" time again! And what better way to kick-off the Memorial Day weekend?! The FiveSibes had such a fun time with all their furpals at the Cinco de Mayo pet pawty, that they want to do it again! This time, the FiveSibes are gettin' on their red, white & blue in honor of America's Independence Day - July 4th! To celebrate, we are hosting a "Patriotic Pets" Photo Contest, and are looking for all of our furpals, far and near, to join in the festivities by donning some patriotic colored clothing, backgrounds, accessories, etc., then Email the pictures to be: 1) selected for some cool prizes, and 2) be included in a slideshow that will be posted on July 4th along with the names of the winners!

To join in the festivities and enter the contest, all you have to do is:
  1. If you're not already, become a follower of the FiveSibes blog and leave me a comment to let me know you are and that you want to be in the photo contest;
  2. "Like" the FiveSibes: Siberian Husky K9 News & Reviews Facebook page, and leave a comment there letting me know you are entering the contest; and
  3. Follow us on Twitter @FiveSibesMom and let me know you're sending a pic; then
  4. Email your pet's photo, his/her/their name, and include a blog or website if you would like. Send pics, with the subject line of "Photo Contest," to FiveSibes(at)gmail(dot)com  by:
12 Midnight EST on June 25th.
Photos will be selected (anonymously) based on creativity, photographic style, visual effectiveness (beauty, cuteness, patriotic colors, etc.) and quality by a volunteer panel of experts, including photographers, artists, graphic designers, and animal experts. Then check back on July 4th to see your furbaby's patriotic pic in the festive slideshow and check to see if your pet's photo won a prize! Winners can then Email me their the address to where they want their prizes sent to. 

Lots of luck to all entrants! What a fun way to spend the holiday together!
