It's time to crown the rulers of the 2025 Waltz. We're handing out Hawaiian flower crowns this year instead of crowns, in keeping with our Tropical Luau theme. The two male and female hounds who get the most votes will be named King and Queen of the Luau. The male and female runners-up will Prince and Princess of the Luau. The next 6 hounds with the most votes will be in the court The Hula Gang, and will get swag bags.
Enter a photo of your hound and get everyone you know to vote for your pups. Votes are $1 each, with all proceeds going to help the hounds of Belly Rubs Basset Rescue.
TIP: Make your entry photo super cute by costuming your hounds in Hawaiian duds so they're dressed for hula dancing and beachy vibes.
You may submit a photo of your hounds as individuals or as groups.
The photo contest, along with the Waltz, is one of our biggest fundraisers every year, so get those photos ready and Vote! Entries are free.
