Pet Parents Need Inspiration:
A Mother's Day Giveaway

by Carrie Boyko, CEB

Your Mother's Day shopping has been done by me. Here's the deal. Three winners will get a copy of Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul. I'll be happy to ship direct to mom and include a card from each winner. How's that for a time-saving, money-saving Mother's Day gift?

Entries will continue through Thursday, May 3. Winners will be announced on Friday, May 4. I'll be in touch promptly when you'll be able to direct me on where to ship the book.

Entries for this giveaway will be made by comments below. Each of you are allowed one comment on this topic: "What I will do with my dog on Mother's Day".

You may also enter once each day by Tweet. Here's a sample:

#Mother's Day gifts r being given away & shipped 2 Mom w/ a card by @AllThingsDog.

Enter at Giveaways tab here: http://ow.ly/auL8A

I'll draw the three winners at Random.org after pulling a list of Tweets to add to the entries. Best wishes and Happy Mother's Day to all.
