May's Contest

Well, we have a confirmed winner for last month's contest. Her name is Amy and she is from Iowa. As you recall, we had a big disussion last month about our dogs. Click here if you missed it.

In any event, that discussion prompted our contest question which was:

What is the name of Deeanne's male border collie?

This was how you voted:

39% voted for Jiggs
33% voted for Hank
21% voted for Cowboy
7% voted for Moose
0% voted for Aardvark

So, what was wrong with Aardvark? I think that's a cute name. But, no one else in the family seemed to go for it--nor did any of you. The correct answer is:

COWBOY

Amy voted for Hank, but you don't have to get the answer right to qualify to win, so she will be receiving a free, autographed copy of The Measure of a Lady any day now. Congrats, Amy!

This month we have been voting on what you think our female border collie's name is. Click here to submit your vote.

Barb said...: Hey, I came from Iowa too! Congratulations Amy! Great book, tho it's too bad the puppy doesn't come with it....
Deeanne said...: The puppy can come with it! Who said the puppy can't come with it? ;-)
Tiff/Amber Miller said...: Aww, Dee. You know you wouldn't part with Cowboy that easily. And if you would...shame on you. :) Those adorable dogs are just too cute to part with.
Deeanne said...: So my kids tell me, Tiff. Still ... I'm listening if someone wants to bite. (Figuratively, of course.)
Amy A. said...: Thanks you so much! I'm excited to read the new book. I just finished Bride for the second time and loved it again.

You can keep the pup, no matter how adorable. I have my own two devil dogs and they are enough to handle.

Blessings!
Meg said...: That's one cuddly Cowboy. Very cute.

Amy, you'll love reading Measure of a Lady. I think it's even better than Bride.
Barb said...: I think Miz Dee owes Cowboy a large-sized doggie treat for being willing to give him away!
Deeanne said...: You're very welcome, Amy. It should arrive at your doorstep any day now (less one pup).

And Cowboy now weights 60 lbs and has had so many doggie treats he's been put on some special "weight controlled" dog food. He sleeps in my bed during the day when I'm not looking. He herds my housekeeper (I catch her quivering in the corner while Cowboy sits there looking at her, just daring her to move).

So, no. No more doggie treats for Cowboy.
Barb said...: Ha! He's obviously a smart one tho! Sounds like he needs some sheep to play with! :oD
