Prizes

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 2025 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 Bark & Gold Photography in March 2024 for the 2025 calendar.

All winners will have the opportunity to upgrade to a full session and to purchase products following their session if desired.

*If your pet is one of the 13 to be photographed for the calendar, you must be able to bring your pet to Bark & Gold Photography on a pre-selected March 2024 date at the pre-determined location within the greater Pittsburgh area for a professional outdoor, on-location photo session. If you are unable to commit to a photo session during that time or find yourself unable to travel to the pre-selected location on the pre-selected dates, you forfeit your winning and the next top vote getter will take your pet's spot in the calendar, no exceptions.


One pet each week who receives the highest number of new votes for a particular week will win a mini-contest prize from one of the participating businesses. On promotional periods, promo prizes will also be awarded to the pet who receives the highest number of new votes during that particular promotional period. In the event of a tie for that week's or day’s most votes or if there are no new votes for that week or day, a random computerized drawing will be held for all eligible pets. Each pet may only win a weekly mini-contest once or promo prize only once. Certain individual business restrictions and limitations may apply and may vary by business. Bark & Gold Photography is not responsible for these restrictions and eligibility requirements as determined by each business.
