Rules

Contest begins July 6^th at 7:00 am (CDT) and runs through July 27th at 9:00 pm (CDT).
It is FREE to submit a photo!
Photo entries must be of an English Setter or English Setter mix. Your entry does NOT have to be a rescue dog. We LOVE all English Setters and welcome entries from all English Setter lovers.
To enter the contest, you will submit a photo of your dog(s), provide their name, your name and address, and a short paragraph (100 words or less) that tells voters something about the dog that we could include on our calendar if your photo is one of the top 13 vote-getters. Is this a rescue dog? How long has he or she been a part of your family? Is there a fun or interesting thing that the dog likes to do?
Voting is open to everyone. Votes are $1 each. Each dollar donated equals an equivalent number of votes that are placed in the donor’s “vote bank”. A $5.00 donation equals 5 votes, a $10 donation equals 10 votes, etc. A minimum donation of $5 is required. You then take the votes in your vote bank and use them to vote on one photo entry, or spread them across your favorite photos.
If you submit a photo to the contest, you can email links to your family and friends to encourage voting for your photo. On your pet's public page, there is a "share" button that allows you to share your entry through Facebook. Ask all of your friends and family to vote for your favorite photo and Share! Share! Share!
Photos are preferably horizontal (wider than they are tall) and may contain more than one pet; at least one dog in the photo should be an English Setter. No people in the photos, please.
Important: Digital photos only. Photos must be in color, clear, of good quality and high resolution, and able to be printed at a size of 8.5" x 11" without significant loss of quality. If your submission is low resolution or poor quality, you will be asked for a better quality image.
SWESR reserves the right to disqualify at any time any photo it determines to be unsuitable.
Contest votes are tax deductible. The email acknowledgment to your online donation serves as your tax receipt. Mailed paper receipts can be requested by emailing info@swesr.org.
We plan for the 2017 SWESR calendar to be available for distribution to winners by December 1, 2016. Calendar pre-sales begin in October 2016. Information about purchasing calendars will be available on SWESR's website and Facebook page.
Contest donations are processed by a secure (SSL, PCI-Compliant) payment processor. You can donate using all major credit cards and Visa and MasterCard debit cards.
