Happy New Year! A new year calls for a new pet design contest! We would like you to design a new Webkinz Classic pet that will be sold by Ganz eStore starting on Webkinz Day – April 29, 2023!
Here’s how it works:
Between January 1 and 31, 2023 design a pet that you think would make a great addition to Webkinz World! It can be any kind of pet you like! You can use one of the templates provided below or you can create your own drawing. You can enter as many times as you like!
You can use any kind of art supplies that you want – markers, pencil crayons, crayons, or other art materials. While we will not accept images that have computer generated patterns or graphics copied and added to them, participants may use programs like Paint or Photoshop to color and draw freehand. We can’t accept submissions with company logos or sports team emblems. Please make sure you save your images as a jpg, gif, or png.
You don’t need to include a suggestion for the pet’s PSI and PSF but you can if you want!
Submit your drawing to the Pet Design 2023 Gallery in the Share Center by January 31, 2023.
Then wait to see if your design is one of the 10 finalists.
The winner will have their design turned into a real virtual pet in Webkinz World and they will receive a code for their pet when it is added to Webkinz World. They will also receive a 10,000 eStore Points, a virtual Pet Design Trophy, and all ten finalists will each receive a 6 pack of 2023 Winterfest Cookies, courtesy of Ganz eStore.

Good luck!
Do we need to name out pet entry ourselves or are we allowed to leave it up to the Ganz team if the design is chosen?
You have to name it I think
D
Hoping to enter this. Excited to see everyone’s designs.
Hi Sally Webkinz! Quick question, is it allowed to enter a pet that has a similar body type than a pet that has already been made? For instance if I used the body as the tawny lion cub but made it original with a design would it matter? Hope this all makes sense! :)
Sure
awesome, thanks!
I made a few pets for this contest so far! Hope one wins this year! I made some Christmas light pets for this one! Hope everyone will like them! :)
Oh I love your Christmas light cat!
Thanks flyinghorse3! I saw some of your designs too and I really liked your Twilight Narwhal! I hope that one at least becomes a finalist!
Only just seeing this now, but thank you so much!
Oh, this is exciting. I have a whole list of ideas. I’ll be working on them soon. Hint: Webkinz needs more DUCKS!!
im so excited i have so many ideas!! im going to make a lot of submissions hahaha
Same haha :3
is the submissions album private? it would make sense if it is! but just wondering since i can’t see any of the entries i submitted
It is not private but it is moderated, and it is only moderated during business hours. Yesterday was a holiday.
Cool! Which one did you win?
oops sorry replied to the wrong comment
I love this contest so much! I have done it every year since 2020. I never win or become a finalist, but I honestly just love the contest so I can draw cute little webkinz hehe.
Hey, cool! I’ve done them every year since 2016, but only have won 3, and only one was a design one =P
The template for the bear seems to be a duplicate of the template of the horse instead of for a bear. That might need to be fixed.
I noticed that too but you can go back to the past contest and download that template from there .
Where is that located?
