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!
galaxy pup , legendary webkinz lab or the tigerlily pup
I would say the tigerly pup! adorable!
In order Orange Slice, Galaxy, Lily Pad, bathtime, and tigerlilly. These are my top 5.
first comment.XD The pups are ok… good job guys!
what do you mean!? they…are…AWESOME!!!!!!! SOOO cute!!!
Ganz, how can you decide the top 10 finalists NOW? I worked as long as I could on puppies last night, and not all of them (including some of my best ideas) have even showed up on the Share Center yet! I’m sure many users who entered puppies last night have yet to see their designs on the Share Center, and yet you’re choosing finalists already!
Well they HAVE had the contest up for a while…
The contest ended at midnight on the 25th so you may not have entered in time.
Me too I submitted mine at 11:30pm, just before the midnight deadline.
Thank you for accepting my submissions (The Butterfly Pup and the Apple Cinnamon Pup :) into the gallery!!!! I love all of these finalists, but I think that the TigerLily Pup is boing to win!!!!!! (P.S. I also like the Bathtime Bubble Pup!!!!)
I like the orange slice puppy, congrats to whoever wins!
Bathtime Bubble, Cinema, Sparky, and Tigerlily are all the ones i like ;D I cant wait to see the main winner!
I think i changed my mind, the best are now Sparky pup and Bathtime bubble ;P
These pups are SO cute!!!!!!! I wish my puppy could’ve been in this list….. BUT oh well, these pooches are better than mine! Congratulations to the top ten, and GREAT job to ALL contestants!!!!!!!
Totally Bathtime Bubble Pup!
Wow I think these are all amazing. :D I don’t think I would be able to choose one. If the maker suggested a PSI, are you guys going to use that PSI? I might like the Galaxy pup or Bath time pup cause they might have really cool PSI. But they are all really good. They should all be made into pets :P
