Every photo should have a short description about the animals story and how that animal has changed as a result of their adoption, this information will not be shown with the pic while online it will only be used for the Calendar. We also need the name of the rescue that they were adopted from, ** to verify they are rescued.

Calendar

If you are a winner and local to the area we have a photographer reserved to take a new photo if your photo is the winner for a holiday month, it may be a fun option or if your photo quality isn't good enough for the calendar. This is an option any local winner can choose if they want to or if necessary because of photo quality. This would only apply if you are local and can get to the photographers location.

1) Photo shoot will take place the first week of October for anyone taking advantage of this offer.

2) The calendar will be ready for distribution at the dinner on October 28th in Mooresville NC. and on our website after that.
