Whew, we’re beat! What a whirlwind National Pet Week this was! You peeps bombarded us with jokes, rhymes and trivia–over 950 entries in all four contests!

And our grand prize winner, selected at random from all entries, is Toni T., whose clever entry, from the caption contest, went like this: Doggie: “Where did your ears go?!” Birdie: “Where did your wings go?!”
Toni wins our Grand Prize: A new Nintendo DSi game system and all four Discovery Kids games! Congratulations, and thanks to all who played, and special thanks to 505 Games!
Trivia Answers:
- Day of the Dolphin (a lot of readers alerted us to another movie titled Sex and Death 101, and we would have accepted that as well)
- Neil and Tim Finn
- Pinball
- False Killer Whale

Hello, all, and sorry for the delay, but it’s been a busy morning. Here in one place are the randomly-selected winners of the caption, limerick and haiku contests:
Caption by Leslie D.
“Here’s looking at you, kid.”
Limerick by Jessica K.
There once was a cat o’ so sloppy
he tried to create a monopoly
once given the chance
he evaluated his stance
and changed his mind to favor Oligopoly
Haiku by Gina B.
worries do not last
a family is forever
these days are special
PS I LOVE this doggy. Like 20 pounds of wiggle in a ten-pound bag.
It would seem to me that a bikini for this puppy would be four times the cost of a regular one.
Ohhhh, I wish that you knew how to spell wiener …..!
That is what I truly wish you seeeeeeee,
’cause if you knew how to spell wienerrrrr,
You would put the i before the eeeee….
(curtsies, skips away)
Cute-gratulations to all the winners!
Thanks CO for a very fun week!

Pyrit, when two vowels go walking, the first one does the talking. Except in German, when it’s the other way around. Except these are German words. OK. I’ll shut up.
So I showed my Dachsie, Charlie, this pic, and he was instantly smitten. And why WOULDN’T he be??? Full spread-eagle, with all eight breasticles showing!
Charlie disappeared behind the couch, and I haven’t seen him since, but I do hear some rather obnoxious slurping sounds. Y’all have corrupted my sweet Charlie!
CO has been DOXIEFIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVES it!!!!!
I’ve been doo-ing my nails while reading all these great comments.
Want to look good for a meeting tomorrow AM–continental breakfast
and PAY! Anyway, I think this adorable doxie could do with a little
topcoat.

It’s like a leetle treasure map — X marks the spot where you dig gently with your fingernails until you get the treasure of doggie kisses.
Congratulations winners! And thanks, CO. That was fun!
Just add a PINCH of mustard!
