Is your pet an MVP?
All pet parents know their furry four-leggers like to leave a little bit of themselves all over the house, as a reminder of how much they love us. My pets deposit their love on every surface, from the carpets to the "fur"niture.
Now Bissell would like to feature some cute little shedders on their packaging. And the winning pets can help a local animal charity on their way to advetising stardom.
Click here to enter a photo of your pet in the Bissell MVP (Most Valuable Pet) Photo Contest. The entry form is very simple, and you click to upload a photo (.jpg format, under 1 mb, one pet only and no people) and the photo pops up quickly for you to crop. One click and you are done.
Then visitors to the Web site vote on their favorite pet of the week.
The family of the pet with the most votes each week gets a bundle of cleaning products from Bissell and the book "100 Simple Secrets Why Dogs Make Us Happy" by David Niven. The weekly winners also moves on to the semi-finals, where a grand prize winner and four runners-up will be chosen by the staff at Bissell.
The grand prize winner will be featured on Bissell packaging, get more cleaning products, and have $10,000 donated to the family's favorite pet cause. The four runners-up will also be featured on Bissell packaging, get some goodies, and have cash donations made to their favorite animal-related charities.
If you decide to enter, please let us know and we will try to drum up support among the blog readers. This could be a great way for us to support local rescue groups, like Star City Greyhounds, and other animal-related causes like the Roanoke Dog Park or St. Francis Service Dogs.
