Free Dog Treats: Winner!

Sorry to be a bit late announcing the winner–we’ve been on the most marvelous dog-friendly vacation (which I’ll be telling you more about–since we took Vance along, I have some great tips on traveling with a dog), and I forgot that I hadn’t announced the winner of the free dog treats contest before we left. I used Random.org to generate the winning number out of six entries (you should definitely enter next time–your odds of winning this random draw were one in six!).

Before I announce the winner, I wanted to thank each of you for entering. It’s always a treat (forgive the pun ;-)) to read about *your* dogs and to get to know you a bit better. And, if you weren’t our lucky winner this time, don’t despair–there will definitely be future dog giveaways here at Good Dog Health.

Our winner was the person who wrote comment #5, Steve, who wrote:

My dog loves tangerines. She’ll do *anything* for one–it’s pretty funny. We’ve gotten her to climb ladders, bring in the newspaper, and learn all sorts of other tricks, all for a tangerine.

Hope your dog likes the Zukes Treats, too, Steve. I’ve emailed you for your mailing address so I can send you your prize. And I’d love to see a video of your dog climbing a ladder for a tangerine–how fun!

Sadly, no one took me up on the dog toy giveaway portion–all you had to do was be the first to post to your blog about the giveaway and you’d have won a free dog toy. So, that portion of the contest is closed without a winner. Watch for future giveaways here because they’re going to keep getting better and better!

Also, a word to potential dog giveaway sponsors: you’re more than welcome to offer a great dog product for a future giveaway, but I am looking for really specific types of things, so please don’t be disappointed if I decline. It’s important to me that I only give away and promote things that I feel good about, and that my dog loves.

Free dog treats

Today, I thought I’d tell you about our next Good Dog Health giveaway. We’ll be giving away my dog, Vance’s, favorite treats: Zuke’s Jerky. Don’t enter just yet, but make sure to stop by often to catch me when I first announce the giveaway–our first entrant will get a prize, too. (The other prize will be awarded randomly.) To be ready to score extra entries, sign up for a free Twitter account if you don’t already have one and start accumulating followers.

Zukes are delicious (I’m assuming–I’ve never actually tasted them myself ;-)) and soft so they’re perfect for stuffing into Kongs and sterilized beef bones. Vance will do just about anything for one and they’re easily breakable so that I can give him just a bit during training.

Now, tell me, what’s your pooch’s favorite treat?
