With our May/June issue we present the third of six 2008 covers starring readers’ dogs—we couldn’t choose just one! We had over 6,000 entrants to our cover dog contest, and all of them were captivating. (And it’s official: the contest is closed to new entrants.) We’re only announcing one winner at a time, so if you haven’t heard from us yet, don’t give up hope!

Boog: Cover Dog May/June 2008

Is that a Setter, a Spaniel, a Dalmatian? Nope, he’s a Large Münsterländer (a German breed with Longhaired German Pointers and English Setters in the line) and Helene Rubinstein’s Boog. Named after the 1970s Baltimore Orioles first baseman, Boog Powell, the two-year-old pup has yet to meet a person or dog he doesn’t like; at the dog park, they call him the “ambassador,” because he’s the only one who’s never gotten into a tussle. Boog lives in Tarrytown, N.Y., with his big “sister” Georgie, a seven-year-old Border Collie mix who has done quite well in agility. Boog is also learning agility, and though his hunting nose sometimes distracts him from the jumps and tunnels, he can do some mean weaves! This Large Münsterländer is indeed large, but Rubinstein thinks he’s worth every inch. Boog rolled out his biggest grin for photographer Amanda Jones.

Remember, we’re only announcing one winner at a time, so if you haven’t heard from us yet, don’t give up hope—you have three more chances to see your dog on the cover.

The contest is officially closed to new entrants.
