My Very Own BARKWORLD TICKET GIVEAWAY!

A couple weeks ago, the greatest thing happened - I won a trip to BarkWorld Expo from Pruven by 3M. (If you missed it, see my post The Best News Ever.)



Well, guess what - the very generous people at Pruven and BarkWorld said I could give a BarkWorld ticket to someone else too!  So I'm having my very own BarkWorld ticket giveaway!




What is BarkWorld? It's an amazing conference for pet bloggers and pet brands and a fantastic way to network with others in the pet industry and to get exposure for your blog or business. They have some impressive speakers lined up (Victoria Stilwell is speaking), and they offer a number of education sessions on various aspects of pet-related social media.  I'm very excited to be going because I know my staff and I will learn a lot, meet a bunch of pet people & their pets, and have a great time!

To enter, just follow the directions below.  Please only enter if you know you can use the ticket.  This giveaway is only for a ticket - hotel and transportation are not included.

I will put all the entries in a basket and select a winner on Saturday, August 10, and I will post the name of the winner on twitter, my Facebook page, and my blog.

As an added bonus, the winner will get to meet ME at BarkWorld - they may even get to rub my belly!

Many thanks to Pruven by 3M and BarkWorld for sponsoring this giveaway!

  9. That's awesome, Garth! I retweeted it for you, and I'll continue to do so to help you get the word out, but please don't enter @FurkidParent. There are so many going that I'd LOVE to meet, but after being sick, I'm just not ready to take any trips anywhere.
