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 their 2026 calendar photo.

*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 Sept – Oct 2025 for a professional on-location photo session. If you are unable to commit to a photo session during those times times/dates (typically sunset on select Tuesdays or Fridays) 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.
