Thank you to everyone who participated in the Sit, Stay, Smile Photo Contest benefitting Tony La Russa's Animal Rescue Foundation. Your photos and votes raised funds for life-changing programs to save animals and enhance the human-animal bond. ARF programs include animal rescue and adoptions, veterinary care for low-income families, disaster relief, shelter-to-service dog training program for veterans, and so much more!

We're thrilled to announce this year's winning photos. The top five vote-getting dogs, top five vote-getting cats, and one judges' choice of each, Pepper the dog and Tschüss the cat, will be featured in our 2022 Calendar. 

Every photo entrant will automatically receive one copy of ARF's aww-worthy 2022 calendar later this year, featuring our 12 winners. If you participated in the contest by voting, don't miss out on seeing these adorable animal photos throughout 2022 and preorder your calendar now!
