Is Your Dog The Cutest Or Good Enough To Make It On The Calander
Medical Solutions Launches Cutest Pet Photo Contest
National Healthcare Staffing Leader Medical Solutions to Host Its First Ever Pet Photo Contest
Medical Solutions, an Inc. 5000 travel nursing company and travel therapy company has announced its first ever 'Cutest Pet Photo Contest' asking healthcare professionals to submit photos of their beloved pets to be voted on by their friends, family and general public.
Healthcare professionals in Nursing, Allied Health and Therapy are being asked to submit their favorite photo of their pets. Photo entries and voting begins August 12th and will continue through September 12th, 2010 at 11:59 pm. Contestants can enter any number of pets and anyone can vote for as many photos as they like, however those voting can only vote once per photo.
"I think it's safe to say that our travelers love their pets and we do too," said Craig Meier, Vice President of Client Development and Recruiting. "We recently conducted a survey with our travelers to determine their interests and received an overwhelming response about their "best friends" and how they couldn't travel without them. We in turn thought a photo contest would be a wonderful way for our traveling nurses and therapists to show off their loved ones! I wish internal employees of Medical Solutions were eligible, because I feel my three dogs, 'Cooper,' 'Izzy' and 'Bean' would blow the completion away!"
Entries are being judged on a five-star rating system and winners will be selected by a panel of judges at Medical Solutions who will choose the winning photos based on the number of votes, average rating and preference. Entrants are encouraged to share their pictures through as many social networking sites they may belong to in hopes of drawing more attention to their pictures. The three winning pet pictures will be eligible for over $800 in e-gift certificates from PetSmart, the largest specialty retailer of services and solutions for the lifetime needs of pets.
