This year, to celebrate the Chinese New Year, animal lovers around the world were encouraged to enter H5C’s Year of the Dog Contest!

On February 12th, we invited players to share a picture or a story about their pet! Players submitted photos and stories about their dogs, cats, birds, and even reptiles! Animals sure do hold a special place in your hearts and we are touched you shared such special memories with us!

We enjoyed sorting through each and every entry learning about your pets! The photos we got to see, make us feel like we were a part of your family! Although we can’t share each entry with you, you can see what some of your fellow High 5-ers had to say below:

This heart- shaped pose says everything about our feelings as Lana joins us in her new forever home! she came to us through our local shelter when her first family could no longer keep her and stole our hearts immediately!

Frank is my 5 year old PUG, ,born Jan 23 2013.. Frank is our ” Door Greeter”, always with a bone in his mouth ,waiting for you to ask if you can have it. With a mumbled growl, he just walks off as if to say” Yeah right” . Frank is well known in H5 chat. The new Pug game that was recently released, fast became known as ” The Frank Game”. He is very entertaining, full of energy and well behaved. Its difficult to choose just 1 photo for this contest, as I have 100’s
