As we stepped into the crisp and colorful days of October, the Perfect Pet Contest attracted a delightful array of submissions from pet owners eager to share their beloved companions. The changing leaves, the approaching end of fall on the prairies, the warmth of Thanksgiving, and the excitement of Halloween create the perfect backdrop for celebrating the bond between pets and their human counterparts.
While the winner of the October Perfect Pet Contest will be unveiled on Halloween, October 31, during the spookiest hour (8 AM-ish), we'll first celebrate the incredible pets who've graced this contest with their presence. So, let's dive into this month's submissions.

She was a wonderful gift meant to be my recovery buddy after surgery, but things didn’t go as planned so my Moki baby is staying with her Aunty and has them in cuteness overload!!Shiner (dog) Moscato (cat)
Our puppy is a 6-year-old springer spaniel that is a very patient, fun-loving pup. we have only had the kitten for about 3 weeks but they get along great.Pretzel

Gabbie is a purebred Yorkie, she turns 10 this month, is photo-genic, still has spunk, and is full of energy. She's a ball of love and joy and is the perfect pet.Bentley
He's a rescue from the Humane Society, he's got quite the personality, always wanting attention and he likes to get into trouble. And really likes to bug his big sister Luna.Nova
Nova is such a special dog. She is a Pomsky, full of energy and love, and can put a smile on anyone’s face. Her favourite thing to do is go for car rides and look at cows. Nova has the sweetest and funniest personality but also has such an attitude.Ringo
Ringo is a puppy Dalmatian and a handful of energy, love, and joy. He loves chasing birds, car rides, any river, and his mom and dad. He will chase anything from a leaf to a butterfly, but always alert and on call. He speaks when he wants something - mainly meat while dad is cooking. His favourite place is the dog park with mom and dad with other dogs there to run with.Sparky
Sparky is my rescue cat that I found at the fire hall while doing hall duties, he came in to inspect what was going on and after a bit of playing shy, we're now best buddies. He’s been with me for a few years now. He’s always close by and meets me at the door when I come home. Unfortunately, he doesn’t understand what personal boundaries are, he’s very photogenic.As we bid adieu to the fall season on the prairies, the October Perfect Pet Contest once again shines a spotlight on the remarkable bonds between pets and their owners.
