Contest: ENTER Misc Avatar Contest: Compelling Canids!

[Avro Arrow]

So a while back, I ran a contest with the theme Fantastic Felids. (OMG, it was August 2015! Where does the time go?? ) Some might be tempted to say that the world has gone a bit to the dogs since then, so it may be somewhat fitting to base our new contest on Compelling Canids!

Your entry can feature any of the myriad breeds of domestic dog. Or, it can be any other member of the Canidae family, which includes wolves, foxes, coyotes, and more!

Usual Misc avatar contest rules apply: no media images (that is, nothing from television, movies, video games, graphic novels, etc.), and maximum size should be 200 x 200 pixels and 1 MB. The contest will be open for about a week.

Since I cannot resist teh cuteness, I'll start us off with some adorable yellow Labrador Retriever puppies:

Have fun!

Ferocious? Nope, just a Beagle yawn....

Good choice.

My entry is Lulu, she is a Golden Doodle and four years old (and Mrs-Dimesdan's parents dog). She likes Hurling, Bog Snorkling, long walks in forests and other dogs (and people and animals) as she is super friendly:

Aww... to misquote Charles Schulz, "Happiness is a warm pile of puppies."

I was 'friended' today. I walked downtown and there was a Shep-hound mix (my guess) that came running up and barking. I could tell it was no threat. Just excitement at the prospect of someone new. Gave me the sniff-down and started wagging the tail vigorously, so I started petting and the excitement just increased. Pretty soon it was a flopover for a belly rub. The owner said her name was 'Rascal'. Yup, it fit.

I really wish I got my beagle at that age. He was 13 weeks when I got him.

This is our Fluffy He's a German Shepherd / Rough Collie mix, irremediable ball-addict and general rascal. His favourite chewing toy is the postman. If his ears weren't in the way he'd have a 360° grin. In this pic he looks halfways serious for a change since he's totally exhausted from playing ball (the only chance to get a non-blurred pic of him)

Nice entries, all!

I'm going to leave this open for about another 48 hours, with the intention to post the poll Saturday evening. So last call if anyone else would like to enter!

 

[Avro Arrow]

@TrickyDickie , your entry seems to be missing? I'll hold off posting the poll until tomorrow night to give you a chance to reupload it if you'd like.

 

[Avro Arrow]

Well, it doesn't look like TrickyDickie has been on since Thursday. So I'm going to post the poll with the current link, just in case it happens to come back to the same location. In the meantime, hopefully most of you remember what his entry looked like.

@TrickyDickie , if you do repost your entry and the link is different, let me know, and I'll update it in the poll thread OP.

ETA: OK, the voting thread is up! Will it come when called? No, sorry, you have to click it.
