Is it cool to make a plea for a few votes to help win a photo contest that could help The English Springer Spaniel Rescue Assn?

We got involved in this contest 3 weeks ago and are amazed we have amassed over 900 votes but are in 2nd place to a pro photographer by 13 or so votes.

Here's the contest: https://www.facebook.com/ultimateup...andloc=DISABLE&app_data=view-vote,for-2292619

You have to have a Facebook account. And here's the pic with some background info:

Besides being a handsome boy with ESS Hall of Fame grandparents he holds his own in the competition hunting circuits:
1st Place- NAGDA 1/14-Porterville,CA
1st Place- BDC 10/13- Tehachapi,CA
2nd Place- BDC 2/12- Lovelock,NV
2nd Place- NAGDA 2/12- Porterville,CA
1st Place- NAGDA 1/12- Porterville,CA
2nd Place- NAGDA 12/11- Porterville,CA
3rd Place-NAGDA 12/10- Porterville,CA
3rd Place- NAGDA 1/10-Porterville,CA

He's also pledged his winnings here, if any, to The ESS Rescue Assn and others.

Thanks-

Thanks packerbacker. 1255 for Trapper to 1230 right now. Crazy. Hard to believe after 3 1/2 weeks it's down to 3 hours of votes. :BangHead: Lead was down to 9 today.

Every vote counts and the English Springer Spaniel Rescue Assn wins if Trapper wins.

Thanks.

And as I just discovered...you can vote 4 times a day!!
Your photo looks pro as well. What brand of camera are you shooting with?

Being a gun dog trainer myself I'll vote for you. Even though it isn't a lab. Good luck.

Thanks Shunkaha. So you know training never ends. I never leave the house without a whistle.

4 times Oregon Viking? I can 'only' vote once. Clock starts again at midnight.
The camera is an old Canon SX 210 IS 14 megapixel. Thanks. I took the pic 3 1/2 years ago while pheasant hunting. My almost 2yo pup just 'got it'. What a great experience.

It's getting down to the wire. I'm amazed at how many votes we're getting and how close it is.

Thanks for all the support. :thumbsup::thumbsup:
