The winners of the photo contest will be determined by the top 13 entrants that get the most votes. The top winner will win the coveted cover photo for the 2026 calendar! 2nd - 13th place winners will have their pet featured as a pet of the month. The top 13 vote-getters will have their pet professionally photographed by Hoff House Pet Photography for the 2026 calendar.

All winners will have the opportunity to purchase products and images following their session if desired, but are under no obligation.

*If your pet is one of the 13 to be photographed for the calendar, you must be able to bring your pet to a pre-selected location in the Pensacola, FL area between May - Aug 2026 for a professional on-location 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 who receives the highest number of new votes in a selected random week will win a mini-contest prize. In the event of a tie for that week's most votes, a random computerized drawing will be held for all eligible pets.

The Northwest Florida Great Dane Rescue is based in Pensacola, Florida. NWFLGDR's mission is to help with the rehoming of displaced Great Danes throughout the Southeast. Our foster range area covers most of northern Florida from Pensacola to Panama City to Tallahassee to Jacksonville; as well as the Alabama cities of Mobile, Dothan, Montgomery and Auburn.

We work to provide ongoing education regarding responsible Dane ownership and care. The adoptable Great Danes of NWFLGDR live in foster homes, not a shelter. Our intent is to match every adoptable Dane with the best home possible, based first and foremost on the Danes’ needs. 

Our calendar contest will support our efforts to continue to provide medical care, foster support, and grow our mission in the Florida Panhandle.

NWFLGDR is a registered non-profit with the state of Florida and a 501(c)3 charity, based in Pensacola, Florida. Donations are tax-deductible and always appreciated.
