Do you always have the answer when someone says, “What kind of dog is that?” Do you fancy yourself a “dog whisperer”? Well, here’s your chance to prove you’re an expert in the furry, four-legged friend department!
From October 17-24, we will post a number of photos of different dogs in a Facebook album. At this time, we invite people to guess what breed mix these dogs are by posting a comment on each of the photos. At the end of the week, we will choose the response on each photo that is closest to the actual results. We will then put these names in a hat and choose a winner!
The winner will receive a DNA My Dog Canine Genetic Test (with the processing fee waived) so they can do the test on their own dog completely for free!
We encourage you to formulate your submission by taking a guess at ALL of the different breeds each dog may have in him/her. This is to avoid many of the same answers on each photo. Be creative and think outside the box. Some of the breeds are quite surprising! Please limit your guesses to one per photo.
So as not to exclude those who don’t have Facebook, we will also the photos in an album on our website which can be found here. If you’d like, you may email your guesses using the photo number to identify to outreach@winnipeghumanesociety.ca.
If you don’t win the contest, don’t worry. DNA My Dog Canine Genetic Tests are available at The WHS gift shop for $10*. DNA My Dog's simple cheek swab DNA test lets you learn every breed in your dog and gain insight into the unique genetic background of your dog including the history of their breed, personality traits, exercise levels, and so much more!
Happy “Hy-paw-thesising”!
*An additional $49.99 is paid to DNA My Dog at the time of the test to cover the processing fee.
