Attention: All Salute Gunny


You remember Gunny -- how could you forget a sweet face like that? -- the 14-month-old English bulldog whose owner sent in a photo to delawareonline. I popped it on my blog in January and invited readers to write captions. Now, we find out that Gunny is going to be a calendar dog. Barb writes:

"The folks at zeldawisdom just called and -- guess what? -- ... Gunny won 2nd place in the Adore-A-Bull
contest. He won a pawgraphed copy of Zelda's book and asked if they can use his photo in next year's calendar. Isn't that just so cool? The woman told me that she had hundreds of e-mails to them telling them that they had family in the military and how handsome Gunny looked. ... Thanks again for the votes. (He lost first place by only 40 votes). Regards, Barb. & Gunny."

Gunny's "big brother" is a Marine, and he's owned by Barb and Louie Freda of New Londa, Pa. Semper Fi, Gunny

That Gunny is a total media darling. I received this e-mail from his owners:

"We wanted to tell you that Gunny won first runner up in Zelda's Adore-a-bull photo contest and will be featured in the 2008 day to day calendar from Zelda Widsom. I don't know how they found your blog, but they were especially impressed with the blog comments about our Gunny and said how proud of him they are of him.
Regards,
Lou and Barb Freda"
