![]() ![]() ![]() As everyone knows, Dogmatix, the little dog "of indeterminate breed," as the authors of Asterix described when creating him, is the only canine creature of his kind. And yet… Here, in the Asterix Virtual Village, we are continually receiving e-mails from small-dog owners who swear up and down that they have a bona fide Dogmatix lookalike. Others ask us how to find a Dogmatix. They wonder exactly what breed of puppy they should choose when their children are clamouring for a little pooch just as smart and cute as Obelix's. After all, in "Asterix and the Actress," we learned that Dogmatix did know the joys of fatherhood. There is thus every reason to believe that direct descendants of the most famous of the Gaulish dogs are romping and frolicking with our children even today!So if you have met up with a Dogmatix large as life and twice as natural, snap his picture and send it to us, along with the contest entry form below. A jury presided by Sylvie Uderzo will choose the photographs of the three most convincing Dogmatix lookalikes. Contest winners will be showered with gifts and their photos will be posted on the official Asterix site for weeks on end!
