And the winner is… or, dogs always choose the middle thing

Meet Rocky, the prize winner choosing dog. …at least, that’s what was supposed to happen at the end of our latest contest. See, the plan was pretty simple: put out the names of the folks who entered on pieces of paper, line them up on the floor, and put a carrot on each. First one that Rocky chooses = WINNAR!

Only problem is, Rocky is a dumb animal.

As you can see in this brief video, the problem was pretty straightforward: Rocky would pick the same carrot first every single time we tried to pick a winner – in fact, he’d eat the carrots in the same damned order every single time.

We tried this several times at various distances, carrot separation, on and on, and no dice. Rocky ate the middle carrot first EVERY TIME GAAAAAAH!!

….so we resorted to the tried and true method of throwing everyone’s name into a hat, and picking two at random. So congrats to our winners, Sharon and Melissa! Email your shipping info to us and your novels will arrive shortly. Congrats ladies!

  1. hehe! it’s like he beelines for the middle one, notices the right one, and then looks over his shoulder and is pleasantly surprised by the left one.
