Grand Prize
The Grand Prize winner with the most votes overall will be featured on the front cover of the 2026 calendar and will have additional pictures and a personal bio prominently displayed on the inside cover!
Two Categories: Top 2 Dog Photos & Top 2 Cat Photos
There are two categories: Top 2 Dog Photos and Top 2 Cat Photos. In total, we will feature 4 winners from the calendar contest (2 Top Cats and 2 Top Dogs). The Grand Prize winner will be the entrant with the most votes overall and will be featured on the front cover of the calendar. Our Grand Prize winner will also have additional pictures and a personal bio prominently displayed on the inside cover. Our 3 Runner-Up winners will be featured on a month spread in AHS's 2026 calendar! All winners will receive a copy of the printed 2026 Calendar. Winners' choice of month will be given in order of pets with highest number of votes.
More Chances to Be Features
While the top 4 winners take the spotlight, our next 35 highest-voted entries will earn a place in a special photo collage page in the 2026 calendar. It’s our way of saying thank you to even more of our amazing participants for supporting the animals in our care.
So keep those votes coming—every vote counts toward a chance to be featured!
