i Love Dog Snouts Photo Contest

This contest has ended. Meet the adorable winners!

Does your Schnauzer have a cute schnoz? Does your mutt have an irresistible mouth?

For October, our Pooch Parts spotlight is shining on the muzzle, aka the snout – in non-technical terms, the part of your dog’s face that sticks out.

In association with our featured pooch part, we’re having an i Love Dog Snouts photo contest this month. All breeds and mixes are welcome to enter.

Our distinguished panel of dog-expert judges will select the winners. Each winner will receive a month’s supply of i Love Dogs Reishi with Green Tea to help keep your dog’s snout healthy on the inside, plus a coupon good for a 50-percent discount on your next purchase of i Love Dogs vitamins and supplements.

Our Facebook fans will also get to participate by voting for their favorite entries in a photo album we’ll post during the first week of November. The pooch with the most “Likes” will win a goodie bag stuffed with pawesome i Love Dogs treats.

The contest deadline is October 31, 2012, so hurry and hit us with your best snout shots!
