Hi Amy, contest info is a short ways down from the main photo, but it does not always show up if you are on a specific link to vote for a friend. Here is the main link of that is the case: https://www.sidewalkdog.com/february-2019-cover-dog-contest/ Please email me at @andrea@sidewalkdog.com if you have further trouble. We want to make sure you have a great experience!
Hi Kay, we’re sorry you’re having trouble. I just searched “Ollie” in the search bar and he did not come up. Did you confirm your submission in your email? Please email me at andrea@sidewalkdog.com if you have further trouble – want to make sure you can participate!
Hi Cynthia, you did it! Here is the link you can forward to family and friends in order for them to vote for Cuddles: http://wshe.es/FgbFA55E Remember, they will have to check their emails in order to confirm their votes. Good luck!
Hi Kalby, unfortunately, there is not. You would have to make a new entry, and then we would delete the old one (and any votes you had amassed). Let us know if you would like us to do that.
Hi, Andrea. I, too, cannot get to the actual contest. I’m seriously trying to find little Jeep. I’ve tried the general link to the contest and the specific one sent by Jeep’s Mom. I’m sure the text should be under the Corgi photo, Andrea. But it isn’t. There is only a small pale gray EMPTY block under the photo. Then 2 links: one for Doggie Depot photos, one for 3 things to do with dogs here. NO ARTICLE AT ALL! It does have a few comments which is how I’m communicating. Does the fact that I’m using a Mac computer possibly contribute to the problem?
Hi Val, I am so sorry you’re having trouble reaching the page to vote! It should not matter what kind of computer you are using – but perhaps you could try from a mobile phone? I will check with our contest host on how to resolve this problem. Thank you for bringing it to our attention!
Hi Finn, I checked with our contest host and he recommends that you check your spam email for the confirmation email. Let me know if you find it. Many thanks!
I have had some vote that never got the confirmation email even though it was sent. THen they can’t try again. Anyway to help fix this? Thanks. And thanks for the contest.
Hi Sue, I checked with our contest host and he recommends that your voters check their spam email for the confirmation email. Let me know if they find it. Many thanks!
Already did check spam still nothing. That was the first thing I had them do so not sure. I think it became hard for some and I know they wanted to vote. Oh well its okay hopefully it will run smoother next tme.
Disappointed. Gave advice to someone then suddenly they get over 100 votes this am to take the win. We have many that never got the confirmation link to click and we lost by 2 votes so really frustrated and sad, Had all out votes come thru I think we could have made it I just don’t understand how suddenly someone can get over 100 votes in a few hours and this was for two separate entries. I will try again but if the same thing happens then I will be out since something is seriously wrong. Yeah I am a bit of a sore loser because it was 2 away and how it happened. Sigh.
Have they announced winners?? I found the two entries that had a sudden surge in votes very suspicious, especially knowing how hard I worked to get our vote count up and the problems with people understanding how to enter and then confirm their votes.
This link isn’t bringing mr to any information about the photo contest. Where else can I find info?
Hi Terry, the information should appear in the text below the main photo in the article. Thanks for your interest!
I’m not finding it either…

is there a way to edit an entry after submission?
Hi Kalby, unfortunately, there is not. You would have to make a new entry, and then we would delete the old one (and any votes you had amassed). Let us know if you would like us to do that.
can people vote every day or just once for the duration of the contest?
Hi Karen! People can just vote once for the duration of the contest.

Is there a delay between the vote and the current tally. I’ve been with people when they have voted yet the tally stays the same.
Already did check spam still nothing. That was the first thing I had them do so not sure. I think it became hard for some and I know they wanted to vote. Oh well its okay hopefully it will run smoother next tme.

Hi Karen, winners have not yet been announced, and we do check the validity of votes. Stay tuned!
