Meet the winner and finalists in the Independent on Saturday’s February Pet of the Month competition. This month it’s Hugo an one-year-old pocket bull terrier from Chatsworth who takes the prize scooping a R500 voucher from Petzone.
Hugo’s mother says he joined the family in 2023 at just 12 weeks.
“He immediately adapted to us all, especially our three kids. He is very protective, super intelligent and rather mischievious.
“He has such strong teeth that he could chew through anything. He follows a strict diet. And when he’s not running around, he is curled up in bed with my youngest son.”
How to enter: Snap a photo of your pet showing its unique personality, with a sentence telling us why he or she is so special to you. Add your name, your pet’s name, breed, age and area. Email it to [email protected]
Winners get a R500 voucher from Petzone.
Competition rules: The competition is open to all pets and only one picture may be submitted. Employees of Independent Media, the sponsor, their advertising agencies and their immediate families may not enter. The editor’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
Our next Pet of the Month feature will be published on March 29 and entries close on March 24 at midday. The competition will run until February 2025.
An independent panel of judges will select the Pet of the Month.
Because of space constraints, not all pictures will be published in the newspaper. However, every pet will be considered and all entries will be published on our Facebook page.
