Once again, your submissions to our Pet Buddy Design Contest blew us away! There were over 700 fantastic entries and it was so hard to narrow it down to just 10 finalists – so we didn’t! We actually ended up with 12 finalists, of which we are planning to make three Pet Buddies.
Pet Buddies!
We tried to select finalists based on the originality, creativity and how well it fits into Webkinz World. Our artists will be taking three of these ideas and bringing them to life. The grand prize winners will receive a Pet Design Trophy, all three of the winning Pet Buddies, plus 3 months of Deluxe Membership. And all of the finalists will each receive a Spring Super Mystery Bag – courtesy of Ganz eStore!
While the final decision is up to the Creative Team at Ganz, we want to hear what YOU think of the finalists. Please check out the list and then take a moment to vote for your favorite by clicking the button at the bottom of the list.
The three winners will be announced on May 31.

I like the octopus, alien and the star. I don’t usually line up with the rest of the peeps that pick.
I was NOT expecting one of mine to be a finalist! :) I love everyone’s designs- it will be so hard voting..! Good luck to all!
Aww! These are all so creative!! I should have entered even though I am not a good drawer. Oh, well. :S These are AWESOME! I’ll vote for the woodland spirit, I think. BUT IT’S SO HARD!!!!! I LOVE THEM ALL!!
Same! I forgot to enter, and I can’t draw characters well. I love every one of them! I love the ginger man so much!
Me too!
Oooh, congrats to my friend Resonatingthunder! =D I really like your raccoon; he’s super cute! Along with the raccoon, I like the balloon dog, woodland spirit, and the gingerbread man. I hope one of those wins.. but good luck to everyone!
Thank you emi! :) I agree, the woodland spirit, balloon dog, and gingerbread man are really cool.
nice entries, everybody- but where’s the flutterfly??
I was wondering the same thing. I loved the idea of a flutterbug pet buddy since they are part of one of the aracade games. It was cute.
IKR! A flutterfly would have been so cool! And in a reply from a while ago, a member mentioned that they were entering a Mocha Bat. I was really looking forward to that! Oh well….these are cute. I’m not sure which I’ll vote for though.
I voted! Congratulations to all of you!!! Good luck :D
Sally, if you’re a finalist, would it be wrong to vote for yourself? i dont want to do so if it would be.
Not at all. You can vote for anyone you want to :)
I am thinking there will be lots who will vote for your colourful buddy! This one is MY personal favorite, so you have another vote from me, W5kinz
Congratulations, W5kinz! How awesome to be a finalist! I think you absolutely should vote for yourself. I will be voting for you too! Your pet design is so original & quite wonderful!

Congratulations!!
All of them would make great pet buddies! My favorites are balloon dog, woodland spirit and the gingerbread man. Good luck to all of the artists!
I love the balloon dog and gingerbread man (a.k.a. Piper) too! The woodland spirit is cute as well, but I personally would prefer the alien.
