Thank you for your patience as we tallied the votes, got verification from our printer, and made sure all of our i’s were dotted and our t’s were crossed. As you know, the calendar contest had many, many entries and we wanted to make sure all was correct before we announced the winners. It was an exciting contest and so much fun to see all the friendly competition and rallied support from everyone! A big thank you goes out to everyone. Because of your generosity (and a little bit of competitive spirit!), we raised over $11,000 for our beloved and well-deserving bassets! Wow, what a ride!

So… drum roll please… the top 13 hounds (and number of votes) are:

Gravy Middleton- 1314 (Our Cover Hound)
Buster Masters- 883
Charlie Brown, Daisy May, and Miss Merry Mullins- 800
Breezy Masters- 665
Moose Parker- 605
Nellie Russell- 532
Ringo Carroll- 508
Rudi Romenus- 500
Blanca Dropp- 451
Carly Simon Johnson- 442
Buckaroo King- 435
Kramer Padgett- 434
Stella Dywan- 427

Following the top 13, all the hounds who received at least one vote (that are unique winners [no two pictures of the same hound]) will fill the monthly smaller squares.

Keep your eyes out for the calendar proof and purchasing options available around Nov 5.

Thanks again for supporting the bassets of Carolina Basset Hound Rescue!
