Congratulations to all contest winners at the Blessing of the Animals!
Abby Orr won the largest pet contest; the smallest pet contest was won by Mousey Man, a hamster who lives with Ms. Mahler’s fourth grade class at Western Avenue School. A Lutheran pug named Guinness won the most mellow pet contest and Bella Madden won the prize as most energetic pet. Most pious pet was won by Maggie (a Border Collie/Husky mix), who lives in Chicago with Mary Kay, a friend of Tracie Moxley. Coco Behler was honored as the Pastor Klonowski Look Alike, and Brando Moser was chosen as the Pastor Orr Look Alike (shown above). Finally, the coveted award of Owner-Pet Look Alike was awarded to Neala McManamy, a Kerry Blue Terrier, and her family, the McManamy’s.
