'Paws' to enter your holiday-happy pet in our online photo contest!

THE HOLIDAYS ARE HERE, and there’s no one who enjoys them more than our beloved pets!

They love showing off their reindeer horns, Santa hats, bad doggie Christmas sweaters and candy cane-shaped chew toys!

Peninsula Daily News, Forks Forum and Sequim Gazette have come together to host this year’s Holiday Pet Photo Contest.

Give us your best shot of a festive furry friend and compete for some great prizes!

Wilder Auto has provided our first-prize gift, a Seahawks-themed dog bed with additional dog goodies.

McPhee’s Grocery, Port Angeles Papa Murphy’s Pizza and Fiesta Jalisco have all supplied $25 gift certificates.
