Our Dogs of Winter Photo Contest!

With such an overwhelming response, it was hard to narrow down the list, but we couldnโ€™t resist this shot (left) of Caleb, an English springer spaniel, playing in the snow. The first place prize goes to Calebโ€™s owner, Ray Whitt of Briarcliff Manor, NY. Heโ€™ll win a Petcube Camera (petcube.com), donated by Raleigh & Co.ย  Runner up Mike Bagley of Norwalk, CT, who took this action shot (above) of his dog Roxy, a feisty Boston terrier, will take home a comfy dog bed from the Riviera collection by Serena and Lily (serenaandlily.com). Not to be missed are the 10 finalists on the following pages. Each dogโ€™s personalityโ€”and love of winterโ€”came shining through.
