SMS Text News team member wins 1st Prize, Fancy Dress

We’re delighted to annouce that Shopsy, our very own SMS Text News mascot and mini Dacshund, won 1st Prize in the Halloween costume contest at PetSmart. He won a first place ribbon and a $20 gift card for the store.

Shopsy, owned by Krystal (site administrator and flower fairy), won the prize sporting a custom designed Hot Dog outfit.

There was some debate about the possibility of dressing Shopsy in an SMS Text News sandwich board or perhaps in a mobile phone costume. Eventually, Krystal, decided to take full advantage of Shopsy’s frame and figure for the custom Hot Dog outfit. I think it worked very well. Here are some pictures of Shopsy in action:

    ahhh, what a cutie… My hairdressers mum has a sausage dog too and he’s great fun although he’s not to hot on high kerbs.

    The funny thing is with these dogs is they are convinced they are a lot taller than they actually are..

    Aww Shopsy! You look beautiful! Auntie Lou is very very proud that you didn’t eat your costume and that you were a very good boy!

    Now, if you can do that, could you stop eating Mummy’s knitting too please?

    Well done Krystal, he looks brilliant!
