Grand Prizes:
- The winners of the photo contest will be determined by the top 12 entrants that get the most votes.
- The top 12 vote getters will have their pet professionally photographed by Shuttermutt Photo for the 2026 calendar.
- The top winner will win the coveted cover photo for the 2026 calendar, as well as a spot as a featured pet of the month! Second through 12th place winners will have their dog featured as a pet of the month.
- 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 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.
Weekly Mini-Contest Prizes: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. In the event of a tie for that week's most votes or if there are no new votes for that week, a random computerized drawing will be held for all eligible pets.
