🐶DE-TAILS🐶

Photo entry must have only one dachshund or dachshund-mix. PETS ONLY in photos, please - NO people. We cannot accept photos with hoomans.
Dressing up is not necessary but appreciated! Have fun!
Provide the highest resolution photo you can. The better to see your pupper(s), and for printing, - it is very important. If your photo wins and is not clear enough another entry may be chosen in its place. Please help us avoid making that tough call.
By submitting your photo, you agree to ownership of the entry photo, to provide nonexclusive rights to Tennessee Dachshund Rescue to share the entry photo within our 2027 calendar, as well as possibly other marketing purposes including social media, educational, or fundraising campaigns; and agree to your photo possibly being digitally enhanced to fulfill the needs of the calendar and its creators.
Photo contest entries are separate from pre-ordering our 2027 Calendar. Calendar orders must be placed separately and will still be available for pre-order and purchase after the contest ends. Calendars are also a tax deductible purchase.
Reserve-a-day does not require you to enter the contest or voting. Reserve-a-Days are great for birthdays or adopt-aversaries, and dates are first come, first serve.
Photo contest winners will be revealed when you receive your calendar!
Calendars are 11x20 and will be ready within 8-10 weeks after photo contest is completed.

We look forward to showing off your dashing, darling dachshunds, and having fun raising funds to rescue more. 💜
