Carpet One's Muddiest Buddy Contest
« on: May 11, 2007, 10:26:45 am »
OMG, I am such the proud mama. I got home today and there was a package on the front gate. I opened the package and it was a coffee table book titled the Muddiest Buddies; A Collection of North Americas Dirtiest Pets... and a letter from the VP of Public Relations stating that Zoey had been picked for over 1000 entries to be featured in the book. WOW, WOW, WOW.
She is on page 17.
They are selling the books at Carpet One Flooring and Home stores through out the US and Canada and 15% of the sales is going to the American Humane Society and the Canadian Federation of Humane Societies.
We didnt win the Dyson, but I dont care, my Zoey has been PUBLISHED!!!!!

I would have never known about the contest had it not been for BPO. So thanks BPO, I have a star in my house now.
Whooo Hoooooo

Congrats to having a star in the family.  Is she going to be signing pics and copies of the book?   ;)  Those are some cute pics.
