Prizes


Grand Prizes:

  • The winners of the photo contest will be determined by the top 12 entrants that get the most votes.
  • The top winner will win a pet of the month spot and also the coveted cover photo for the 2026 calendar! 2nd - 11th place winners will have their pet featured as a pet of the month.
  • The top 12 vote getters will have their pet professionally photographed by Kasey Wilson Photography for the 2026 calendar.
  • All winners will have the opportunity to purchase products and images following their session if desired.

*If your pet is one of the 12 to be photographed for the calendar, you must be able to bring your pet to a pre-selected location in the Twin City Metro area during June, July, and August after the contest has ended for a professional outdoor/studio photo session. If you are unable to commit to a photo session during those times or find yourself unable to travel to these pre-selected locations, you forfeit your winning and the next top vote getter will take your pet's spot in the calendar, no exceptions.
