Doggie Christmas Costume Contest Winners!

There were about 28 entries in the Second Annual Doggie Costume Contest, hosted by Doggie Do’z, 113 E First Street. Owner Amy Hallinan said, “Everything went really well and everyone had great things to say about it again. The competition was very heated this year. We couldn't believe how creative everyone was!” Amy described the winners:

First Place - Buzz, a Welsh Terrier. He's owned by Sarah Hale and he took third last year. He was a fully decorated and lit Christmas tree, complete with tree skirt and gifts. Sarah made it all by hand and it was awesome.



Second place - Tooker, a Chihuahua, owned by Brenda Light. He was a reindeer pulling a big Santa sleigh filled with toys. The sleigh was about five times bigger than he was, but he pulled it like a trooper.



Third place - Nugget, another Chihuahua, owned by Melanie Ford. He took second place last year. He wore a green sweater wrapped all up in pine garland, complete with blue lights.




The judges were Ian Hallinan and Marty Young, of 94.7 WQDR.

Hey Bruce,
Upload these photos (and any photos you have) onto MyNC.com for the Holiday Special. I'm sure Lisa has talked to you about it, but I know we are specifically looking for pets all dressed up and these are AWESOME!
