Talbot Humane’s first photo calendar contest, Petparazzi, offers pet lovers the opportunity to enter their dogs, cats, or other small companion animals in a photo competition while raising funds for the shelter’s animal care and community outreach services.

The photo contest opened for entries July 1 and remains open until the contest ends on August 16. Entrants promote their pet by email and social media, urging their family, friends, and co-workers to vote for their pet on the contest website. One dollar equals one vote; each of the top five dogs and cats, and top two “other” animals who receive the most votes in their respective categories at the end of the contest will be featured as a Pet of the Month in the 2020 Talbot Humane Petparazzi Calendar. The pet who raises the most funds overall in the voting will also appear on the cover of the calendar. The entry fee of $25 is considered a tax-deductible donation to Talbot Humane and includes a copy of the 2020 calendar with each entry, a $15 value. Pets entered in the contest are not limited to Talbot Humane alumni, or even to Talbot County; all pets are welcome!
The shelter’s fundraising goal for the 2020 Talbot Humane Petparazzi Calendar contest is $10,000. All funds raised will be used to help animals in need in our community. For more information, or to enter your pet in the contest, visit www.gogophotocontest.com/
