*If your pet is one of the 12 to be photographed for the calendar, you must be able to bring your pet to Shuttermutt Photo at their North Hollywood, CA studio during July or August 2025 for a professional, in-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.

One pet each week who receives the highest number of new votes for a particular week will win a mini-contest prize from one or more of the participating businesses.
