The Liebster Award

Ok, our newest bff nominated Pit Bulls and Other Animals for a Liebster Blog Award! For those of you, like us, who do not know what the Liebster Award is, please read the following excerpt from:

EMT April 10, 2013 at 9:05 AM Hello! Just stopping by to let you know I have nominated your blog for a Liebster award.

So our nominator is The Five Dog Blog

Please visit http://thefivedogblog.blogspot.com/2013/04/liebster-award.html for all the information!

So, we have a couple of minutes and here goes....

The following was excerpted from The Five Dog Blog:

I'm relatively new to the blogging world and was not familiar with the Liebster Award and what it

really meant. So I jumped on my trusty Google browser and started searching. Most of the entries were other blog posts from blogs that had also received this award, so it seems legit :). I like awards. And the Liebster Award is for bloggers with under 200 followers to help spread the word about their blog. I like followers :).
I figure it's kind of like a chain letter - a blogger to blogger award. And even though it's a chain letter, it's still fun to get to know other bloggers! Apparently, liebster is a German word meaning sweetest, kindest, nicest, dearest, beloved, lovely, kind, pleasant, valued, cute, endearing, and welcome. Seriously, that is a lot of  adjectives for one damn word! Maybe some of my German friends can tell me if that's a real translation or just chain letter nonsense.
