If you’ve always wanted to see your pet’s name and adorable face in lights, this is the contest for you!
Between now and August 8, you can submit your favorite pet glamour shot to be included in the 2025 Dumb Friends League Calendar. The contest entry fee guarantees every submitted “pawtrait” a spot in our calendar’s photo collage! Plus, each entrant will receive a complimentary copy of the full-color 2025 calendar.
The top vote-getters in their category (cat, dog, horse, or small animal) will be featured as a Pet of the Month, and the person whose pet receives the most overall votes will get to pick which month their star appears!
Also, make sure to tell your friends and family to vote by Thursday, August 8 at 5:00 p.m. Mountain Time. All proceeds from contest entries and votes help provide specialized care for over 44,000 animals who come through our doors each year.
Capture the sweetness of those who have captured your heart. Fur real, we can’t wait to see your adorable pet photos!
Please note: Our photo contest welcomes pictures of all cats, dogs, equines, and small pets. However, please note that for any Brachycephalic breed whose picture is submitted in the contest and featured in the calendar, there will be a disclaimer noting that these cats and dogs often suffer from brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS), which has become a significant health and animal welfare concern. Finally, your pet does NOT have to be a Dumb Friends League alum to enter the contest.
