Holidays - and JD & Max's 'Bootie-licious' Competition!!

JD - Hello everyone - phew, it's been a hectic few weeks in our household recently - we apologise for being a bit tardy on visiting your blogs.

Max - We're going to make sure we do the rounds tonight! We've been pre-occupied as male and female human have been really busy at work....

JD and Max carry out 'the drape' maneouvre in an attemot to persuade female human NOT to go to work....

JD - ....plus we've been to stay at the kennels a couple of times because the humans keep on going to a place called 'London' that we're not allowed to go, to watch something called a 'concert' at a big building called the 'O2' - we hear this 'O2' place is even bigger than our local pet store - wow, it must be HUGE!!

Max - We don't mind the kennels - we get a bit spoilt by the gorgeous kennel girls when we're there as they can't resist our fluffy tails and bushy eyebrows, so we're quite happy about that!

JD - Which is just as well really, as our humans are off to yet another place that we're not allowed to go to next week - it's called 'Egypt'....

Max - ....so we're going to be in the kennels for just over a week. We're not sure where this 'Egypt' place is or why we're not allowed to go with the humans, but we hope they bring us some good presents back!

JD - Whilst we're in the kennels our humans are going to be looked after by Bertie, the tiny plush schnauzer they got to replace us when they visit places that we can't go to.

Bertie looks out over the O2 Dome - shame that at this angle it also has a huge pylon in the middle of it....!

Max - So, although we're obviously not going to be able to blog for a while watch this space for pictures of Bertie in Egypt, he he he!!

JD - Now, since we're having some 'down-time' we thought it would be the ideal point to have a competition!

Max - This is the very first competition that we've hosted - we're pretty excited!

JD - We recently posted a 'wordless Wednesday' in homage of our handsome bloggie pal Groucho - and as a result of the fun comments that were left for us we have decided to launch our very own 'bootie-licious' competition!

Shake your tail-feather everypup (or kittie!)

Max - We have drafted in the help of our great pals Nellie & Calvert from NY and the 'ear-resistible' Santa & Minnie from KL - as well as the 'splorin' wolfies, Guinness and Saige and Groucho!!

Calvert and Nellie are ready to scrutinise all entries!

JD - So - this is what you need to do! To enter our 'bootie-licious' competition please send us your favourite 'tooshie' shot! You can post it on your blog and leave a comment for us to direct us to it, or send it directly to us via e-mail by using the 'contact us' button on the top navigation bar of our blog.

Santa and Minnie are here to lend their support!

Max - There are three categories for you to enter - you can enter one category, two categories or all three! First off is the 'Fluffy-butt!' category to show off all those gloriously fluffy posteriors out there!

JD - Next we have the 'Tail-Placement' category to show off how we all use our tails for different purposes - show us how you flirt with your tail, how you play with your tail - or even how you spell out your name with your tail like Groucho here - he he he!


Max - And finally we have the 'Bottoms Up!' category - please send us your funniest butt-shot! We all know how carried away the humans can get with those flashy boxes so we're sure there are a lot of very funny bottom shots out there for us to all have a giggle at!

JD - Those are the categories - we DO hope you enter! Max - Our human has even made us a competition link button - you see, humans CAN be quite useful at times, he he he! JD - Here it is....

JD - ....please copy the html code onto your blog page for a direct link to this competition!

Max - The closing date for this competition is Monday, 23rd November, after which we will then open the competition up to a public vote! This will be when Santa & Minnie and Nellie & Calvert will be stepping in! They have agreed to help everyone with their voting by writing a short commentary on each photo - this is going to be so much fun!

JD - Obviously, to give our friends a chance to pen some witty and insightful comments the voting won't until one week after the closing date - 30th November - and voting will be open for one week.

Max - When the competition is over we will announce the winners - and to make it really exciting Guinness, Saige and Groucho will say a few words about each of the winners!! We'd like to thank our pals SO much for agreeing to help with this competition - because of their help we think this will be a truly 'international event' - he he he!!

Saige, Guinness and Groucho - who inspired this competition - will be commentating on the three winners - it's very exciting!

JD - So - without further ado - let the competition commence!

Max - Good luck! Don't forget - we're on our holidays now for a couple of weeks, so please enter whilst we're away as it'll give us something really fun to look forward to upon our return! We'll see you all in a couple of weeks time.....!

Join in the fun at Pet Pride....
