Rules

Entries:

Each entry is a $5 fee.
Limit of ONE DOG PER PHOTO entry. People are not allowed in photos, only your pet. We ask that no human faces be in the photo, if there is a human in the photo make sure that their face is out of the photo. Photos that do not follow these rules will be removed and will not be eligible to win with no opportunity for a refund.
All dog breeds are welcome to enter.
All photos must be uploaded; we cannot accept printed photos. We cannot accept any copyrighted or professional photos.

Contest entry fees are tax deductible. The email acknowledgment to your online donation serves as your tax receipt.
Any photograph that includes content that is deemed inappropriate, indecent, or obscene, as determined by Candra Schank Photography in its sole discretion, will be removed from the contest with no opportunity for a refund.
Posting more than one photo of your pet does not increase the chances of winning. The winners of the photo contest will be determined by the top 13 entries that receive the most votes. The same pet can only win once. Attempts to win two spots in the calendar by the same pet will not be permitted.

Calendar Photo Session:

The top 13 vote getters will win a professional studio photo session by Candra Schank Photography at a pre-selected date and time at her Owen Sound studio May 1st 2023 - July 21, 2023. If you are unable to commit to a photo session during those times or find yourself unable to Candra’s studio or a predetermined spot, you forfeit your winning and the next top vote getter will take your pet's spot in the calendar, no exceptions.
The top vote recipient will win the coveted cover photo for the 2024 calendar. The following 12 recipients with the most votes will be eligible to have their pet featured as a pet of the month.
The photographer, Candra Schank Photography, will choose the best image of the pets to be used in the calendar as well as which month that image will appear.

Weekly Mini-Contests:

The pet receiving the highest number of new votes each week over the course of the 5-week contest will win a mini-contest prize from one of the participating businesses.
Each pet may only win a weekly mini-contest once.
In the event of a tie, a random computerized draw will be held between the highest vote getters of the week to determine that week's winner.
In the event that there are no new votes for that week, a random computerized draw will be held for all eligible pets.
Certain individual business restrictions and limitations may apply and may vary by business. Candra Schank Photography is not responsible for these restrictions and eligibility requirements as determined by each business.
