The Showdog Magazine - Catch the Fever
The Showdog Fever
For December's Issue of the SD Fever, I decided to host an event which was somewhat linked to the upcoming festive season. Thus, for December the Challenge was a "12 Days of Christmas Challenge"
On each of the twelve days, a question would be posted. Participants would send me an answer via PM. Those who correctly guessed went into a random draw to win the corresponding day's prize.
The Questions/Answers for each of the days, and the winners of each day's prize, can be found here:
