Hallmark's "Love at First Bark" DVD Giveaway!

Why Do We Do Giveaways?


Everyone hates reading about a contest giveaway, only to learn there are annoying hoops to jump through and a million strings attached.  Even worse is when you have to divulge private information or subscribe to an e-mail list in order to enter.

Good news--our contests aren't about data mining!


Why do we do them?

First, these contests are a special treat for our Facebook group members.  Our group is fun, engaging, upbeat, and interesting.  What better way to thank members for their lively discussion and participation than give them a chance to win something Hallmark-y!

Second, we want our group to grow!  Not only are Hallmark movies a relaxing escape from real-life, so is our Facebook group.  With all the stress in the world, we want people to find our group where they can experience all the Hallmark feel-good vibes even when they can't be watching a movie.  It's fun to chat with fellow Hallmarkies, so the more we have in our group, the merrier it is.

Prize:  Hallmark's "Love at First Bark" DVD


Remember this movie from 2017, starring Jana Kramer and Kevin McGarry?

It's about a woman with a new, out-of-control German shepherd who turns to a handsome dog trainer for help.  As they make progress with the dog, they end up developing feelings for each other, too.


How Do You Enter the Giveaway?

  • This contest is only for our Facebook group members.  If you're not already part of our group, no worries!  It's easy to join.  You can find us here:

  • Once your membership is approved, look for the link to this blog post pinned at the top of the Facebook group in the announcements.

  • In the COMMENT SECTION of the FACEBOOK ANNOUNCEMENT (not this blog post),   **post a picture of your dog (or other pet, if you don't have a dog) and tell us your pet's name!**

Since the movie is about dogs, and so many of you have pets you love, it will be fun to see all the pics of your fur babies and hear their cute names.  

What if you no longer have a pet?  

Surely, you had a pet at SOME point in your life--even if it was just a goldfish.  If your pet has passed over the rainbow bridge, you can still post a picture with its name to enter the giveaway.

  • DO NOT CREATE A NEW FACEBOOK POST FOR YOUR ENTRY!!!  This clogs everyone's feed, so be sure to post your pet pic and name in the comment section of the giveaway announcement post on Facebook.

  • One entry per person.  Even if you have multiple pets, you can only enter the contest once.  

**Your name will not be entered in the drawing if you forget the pet picture, to mention it's name, post your entry in the wrong place, or are not a resident of the USA.**



You Must Be a Resident of the USA to Enter!!


Entrants must be legal residents of the United States of America, 18 years of age or older.

Our group has a lot of international friends, whom we greatly appreciate, but we simply do not have the budget for high shipping rates.  We apologize!  

When Will the "Love at First Bark" Winner Be Announced?


This giveaway will run from Wednesday, April 29, 2020, through Saturday, May 16, 2020.  The winner will be announced on Sunday, May 17, 2020.

Everyone who participates correctly will be entered in the random drawing.

How Will the Winner Be Notified?


One winner will be announced on Sunday, May 17, 2020, in the Hallmark Seasons of Love Movies Facebook Group.  The winner will be tagged and must private message the group admin with mailing address to receive the Love at First Bark DVD.  The address will be for prize mailing only and not kept, used, or shared for any other purpose.

Winner must provide mailing address by May 21, 2020, or else forfeit the prize.  A new winner will then be randomly selected.



Promotion Is Not Associated With Hallmark or Facebook


The Love at First Bark DVD giveaway is offered by Hallmark Seasons of Love Movies Facebook group and blog and not sponsored, endorsed, administered by, or associated with Facebook or Hallmark, and participating in this giveaway is done independently by each person.  Facebook and Hallmark are released from any responsibility to entrants or participants.  

You Can Still Get the Movie, Even If You Don't Win

Best of luck to all of you who participate!  We will all enjoy seeing your pet pics and hearing their names!

Lacey Chabert Compromises Her Faith in Hallmark's "Groundswell"

Image:  Crown Media Lacey Chabert Is a Hallmark A-Lister Before Candace Cameron Bure left Hallmark for Great American Family, fans would good-naturedly spar over who should be crowned the network's Queen of Christmas --Bure or Lacey Chabert.  Starring in more leading roles on Hallmark than other actresses, both ladies seemed to retain a firm reign over the network, evidenced by their massive viewing audience. All fans have their favorite Chabert movie, but there's no denying that A Christmas Waltz was the number one most watched original movie premiere in 2020, and in 2022, The Wedding Veil broke Hallmark viewing records by drawing in more than 3.3 million live viewers.  In fact, The Wedding Veil outperformed all of Hallmark's 2021 movies, proving Chabert's popularity shows no sign of waning. Surprisingly, as many familiar faces left Hallmark for Great American Family, like Jen Lilley and CCB, Chabert not only stayed with Hallmark, but she also signed a 2-year deal

Did You Notice THIS Change In Hallmark's "Raise a Glass to Love?"

Starring:  Laura Osnes and Juan Pablo di Pace Released:  2021 (Fall Harvest) Summary:  An aspiring Master Sommelier returns to her family vineyard to study and is intrigued by the natural methods of the handsome new Argentinian winemaker. Magic happens when Hallmark actually uses talented actors instead of inexperienced "newbies." Jenna's Boyfriend, Aidan, Isn't A Weiner When a female lead already has a boyfriend before she meets her true love, Hallmark traditionally casts the secondary male character as a bit of a jerk, someone homely, or a puny fella so viewers won't get attached to him and be upset when he's kicked to the curb.  A recent example is Callie's ex-boyfriend, Joe, in Roadhouse Romance . Played by Adil Zaidi, no one is heartbroken when Callie decides against rekindling her romance with high school sweetheart, Joe. In a refreshing change-up, Raise a Glass to Love pairs Jenna Savern (Laura Osnes) with Aidan Parker (Matthew James Dowden).  Aida

Take This Trivia QUIZ on Hallmark's "The Wedding Veil"

The Wedding Veil Plot Summary   The Wedding Veil is the first installment of a new trilogy that follows three longtime college friends who discover a mysterious, antique veil fabled to unite its bearer with her true love.  After discovering a long-lost painting, museum curator Avery and new board member Peter investigate the artwork's origins as they plan a gala to unveil it. Starring :  Lacey Chabert, Kevin McGarry, Autumn Reeser, and Alison Sweeney Lacey always makes a beautiful bride!  Image:  Crown Media The Wedding Veil Is Inspired by Lori Wilde's Book Churning out tons of new movies each year takes a toll on Hallmark's creativity.  How many plots can be about a writer, and is it common for so many people to suffer from amnesia? Recycled stories grow wearisome, but when Hallmark taps authors outside their own bubble, fans benefit from fun, light-hearted romances that are refreshingly unique. The Wedding Veil  is inspired by the book, There Goes the Bride by Lori

Hallmark's "The Color of Rain" the True Story of Gina Kell and Michael Spehn

Starring:  Lacey Chabert and Warren Christie Released:  2014 Summary:  While consoling each other over the recent loss of their spouses, a man and a woman grow close and fall in love. Image:  Crown Media, United States LLC Gina Kell and Michael Spehn Find Love Despite Tragedy You've seen the movie, so you know the plot, but did you catch that it's based on a real-life story? Gina Kell's husband died on Christmas Day, 2005, from a rare and incurable cancer, leiomyocarcoma, which he battled for three years. Weeks later, Cathy Spehn died seventeen days after learning her painful headaches were a result of a brain cancer called glioblastoma multiforme. It's no wonder the two gravitated toward one another. It's like parenting--people who have never had children can't really grasp what life with kids is truly like on a daily basis.  Similarly, your heart can hurt for someone who has lost their spouse, but you can't relate to them on deeper le

Does Lacey Chabert Do Her Own Dancing in Hallmark's "The Dancing Detective: A Deadly Tango?"

Lacey Chabert and Will Kemp danced their way into our hearts in 2020 with the most watched cable movie premiere of the year, Christmas Waltz , and since then, fans have been itching for another story that would reunite the two on the dance floor. Chabert and Kemp both executive produce The Dancing Detective:  A Deadly Tango , but the concept for the tale is credited completely to Kemp.  When he pitched his idea to Hallmark, executives recognized the perfect opportunity to delight fans once again with their favorite dancing duo. Image:  Hallmark Media What is The Dancing Detective:  A Deadly Tango About? Constance Bailey (Chabert) is a very independent and detail-oriented detective who, despite her success rate, hasn't been promoted in five years, primarily because she doesn't work well with others. When the CEO of Aston International is murdered days before the annual executive ballroom dancing competition, Bailey is sent to Malta to investigate.  Interpol is watching, so it&#
