We have a winner!

I put all the names on slips of paper and put them in a bowl....
I looked for volunteers to make the draw. 
Pearl skedaddled. 
I put them on the floor and asked Foose. 
He was very suspicious and wouldn't leave his comfy chair.
I took it outside, and asked Thumper to do the draw. 
"Uh-uh! not my job!" says he.
I asked Sammi.
"I'm outta here" says she.
Tess, will you do the honors?
"Pretty tough to get just one, you'll have to spread them out!"
So I did, and after a few tries-
"Just one," says I,
Tess got it right and this is who she picked:
Val- drop me a line with your snail mail address at my email address and I'll send your prize, pronto!

I think the reason you had a lack of volunteers is that they didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings lol

It was pretty funny, she would grab a mouthful then spit them out and look at me, I made her keep going til she got only one- it only took 3 tries. Smart dog!
Thanks, everyone for participating.
