We’re so amazed by the 6000+ fantastic entries we received during the Design-a-Dog Contest that we chose an entire Top 10 finalists list!
Out of these 10 entries, 1 will be revealed as the contest winner on Webkinz Day, Tuesday, April 29! They’ll walk away with a 1-year Deluxe Membership, a virtual version of the winning pet, and (bonus!) all 5 prizes from the Kinzville Academy creativity class.
Our 9 runners-up will walk away with a virtual version of the winning pet, too!
Congratulations to our finalists. Let us know in the comments who you think should win!

**UPDATE (April 28, 12:00PM EST)
We’d like to address two common concerns among our players since this article has been published.
1) Some players have expressed concern that though the contest officially ended Friday, April 25 at midnight, these finalists were posted early on Saturday morning, even though a number of last-minute entries hadn’t appeared in the ShareCenter yet. We’d like to assure everyone that every single entry to this contest was seen by Friday, April 25 at midnight, and all of them were taken into careful consideration before our team compiled their Top Ten list. The decision to post the Top Ten list on Saturday morning was to ensure that Webkinz Newz readers had time to see the finalists over the weekend and tell us their favorites before the big Webkinz Day winner reveal.
2) Other players have also expressed concern that several of the Top Ten finalists seem to have been done with computer software. According to the official rules, this is acceptable. We want to stress that we were delighted with every entry we received, regardless of the artist’s choice of coloring tool (crayons, computer software, markers, etc — there was a big range!). To that end, our Top Ten contains examples of different types of coloring tools that reflect the wide range of entries we received.
We hope that everyone remains a good sport and congratulates the finalists on their achievement as we count down the hours to the big reveal on Webkinz Day, Tuesday April 29!
mine was not pick im so upset
Me too! i know how you feel
Love the bath puppy<3
Congrats everybody! I just entered for the fun of it:)
I love all of them but I think that the Sparky Pup should win first prize! It is the best design in the top 10 finalists!
I do love these entries but c’mon! There’s only like two that were actually done by hand. :/
I like bubble puppy and chili dog
galaxy puppy or the sparky pup or the tigerlily pup one of those three
Mine didn’t get posted but I like the galaxy pup the best. The ones I did were of course inspired by something, but they were the totally 80′s pup and it was inspired by the totally 80′s dress that deluxe members get. The baby girl pup which I got the idea for by practicing the pup’s and the second one I acadently drew with a smused in face and I thought it looked like a baby so that’s where I got the idea for the baby girl pup. The last one was a baby boy pup which I took the idea for the baby girl pup and made it a boy. and they both have little binkies and diapers. The binkies hade a string tied to them and it made a little necklace. But I still like the galaxy pup the best and congrats to whoever wins this years design a dog contest! ( I don’t know who wins even though it is webkinz day)
No way could I pick any less than 10 of them as the best. Congratulations to all. They are great.
Tigerlily Pup should win
