Wow! What a fantastic response to our pet design contest! We had over 3,000 entries and as always it was tricky narrowing the list down. Because it was so difficult to choose, in honor of Webkinz’ 15th anniversary this year, we decided to select 15 finalists!
Now we want to hear what you think! The winning pet will be sold in Ganz eStore starting on Webkinz Day, April 29, 2020.
As always, we look at concepts that we believe would be a great fit for Webkinz World. We are not judging the entries based on artistic talent, but on ideas that we think would make great pets. Please keep that in mind when you make your selection. Whichever pet we select, the Webkinz art department will work their magic to make it fit the Webkinz style.
While the final decision is up to the Webkinz creative department, we will take your input in consideration when making our final choice. Check out the 15 finalists and let us know in the comments below which one is YOUR favorite.

My favorite is the Cotton Candy Capybara. Good job to everyone!
Thank you so much for featuring my sisters patchwork giraffe as a finalist!! She will be so happy when she sees this!! Thank you!! I love all the entries as they are all amazing!! Thank you again you guys are the best!!!! :)
Sorry I meant Patched giraffe
Thank you so much, jaxcat2
It’s so cute! I would love to have that as a pet.
I am torn between the Golden Peacock and the Moonberry Dragon. I like the peacock because it is not unlike my own design, but I really like dragons lol.
I’d love an elkhound to name after a character of mine! Congrats to all!
They are all great. My two favorite are , the Patched Giraffe and the Cotton Candy Capybara.
I love that cactus cat so much!!
Wow thank you for picking one of mine! 15 finalists is a lot! Besides my own pet, the pets I would like to win are the Cactus Cat, Greater Kudu, and Icelandic Horse.
Congratulations! The Golden Peacock has my vote :)
HobbitJedi, congratulations! I also loved your golden peacock design! All of the designs are winners and I’m so happy to receive such positive feedback about the Icelandic Horse! Great talent and imagination in all of the designs submitted! Bravo!
I am drawn to the unusual – the pangolin or the tapir would make a good addition to our diverse pets!
Love all of these! Amazing creativity! My favorite is the Moonberry Dragon.
WOW! These are all wonderful! There are a lot of very talented Webkinz players! Great work everyone! :)
