Innotech presented prize after a unanimous judges decision named Gary as top dog in this year’s competition
Innotech Digital and Display announce the winner of this year’s Pets in Print competition is Gary from Print.com. He faced stiff competition from a diverse field of entrants.
The judges, Carys Evans from Karis Copp Media, Colin Sinclair McDermott, the Online Print Coach, and Jack Gocher and Kathryn Ridout from Eye on Display, all agreed that Gary showed all the qualities required of a hard-working print pooch as he modelled not only his Pets in Print bandana but also a branded hoodie in his role as chief morale woofficer.
Carys said, “This has been a really hard decision as all the entries have their own appeal. I’d give them all prizes if I could. However, Gary won us all over with his expressive face and his clear role in the Print.com team.”
Whilst this year’s competition threatened to be marred by an April 1st bribery scandal, the standard of entries was extremely high. The descriptions of the roles played by the pets and the poses achieved (probably with many treats eaten) made the judging decision very challenging.
Tony Murgatroyd, Regional Account Manager and Sam Lowe, Creative Lead at Innotech were delighted to present the trophy to Gary and his owner, Fiona Robinson of Print.com.
“We are delighted that Gary has been recognised with this award as the good boy we know him to be,” said Fiona.
