Okay, I'm begging here, but it's for a good cause-

Chesapeake Bay Retriever Relief & Rescue's biggest annual fundraiser is their Chessie Calendar. Pictures of Chesapeakes are submitted, voted on by a $2 donation per vote, and the top 13 pictures go into the annual calendar.

There are hundreds of pictures submitted each year, and I've tried in the past with pictures of my Lar dog, but never made the cut. This year, I've got a picture of Logan in the voting, and he's so close. He's been near the top since the voting opened, and has just dropped out of the top 13. Voting closes on October 6th.

So please, if you could spare a couple of dollars to help support rescuing a brown dog (and to make my brown puppy a star :cheer: ), could you possibly vote for Logan? You can vote via Paypal- http://www.cbrrescue.org/calendar/2011/calendarvotingbooth.asp

Logan's picture is titled "A muddy puppy is a happy puppy" and this is the image-

Done! It appears that you can "stuff" the ballot box by "buying" more than one vote. At least that's what I tried to do. We'll have to see if Logan's vote total just shot up. ;) But if not, no matter - it's for a good cause.

Done. A little more "ballot stuffing" for cute, muddy Logan :-) He's far more adorable than any of the other pups on that list, there's no reason he shouldn't be the cover-dog.

Awww, you guys are the best!!!

You can totally "stuff" the ballots, the dog that is in 1st place has had 200 votes from day 1, and its total hasn't changed since. I'll admit to some ballot stuffing myself (just don't tell mr. tarragon, shhh). The vote totals aren't tallied instantly (I think a volunteer does them manually every night), so we'll have to check them tomorrow to see how Logan's doing.

Hey T -- You also should send that photo in to Orvis. I just received their new catalog for dog beds in the mail, and they're having a "cover dog" photo contest. They tend to favor the retrieving breeds in action. Of course, he'll have to compete with my Delia, but I wouldn't be bitter if Logan beat her. Maybe . . . :innocent:

I wish I would have had a real camera with me today, I took this picture this afternoon with my cell phone so the resolution is crap, but I think this would have make an awesome Orvis cover!

Y'all are doing such a great job making Logan a calendar model, I went ahead and entered him in the Orvis contest too and we'll see if he can be a coverboy. You can't use a published photo, so I chose a sporty photo, complete with ducks-
