Rules, Rules, Rules

Pugs Rule! — but these are the rules…

The Basics.

Deadline for submissions is 11:59 pm on — August 15, 2025.
$5 per photo. $25 for five to ten.
No more than ten photos from each household.
Please – pugs and pug mixes only. Your dog doesn’t need to be a rescue. Please no people. We love people, but pugs sell more calendars.

Horizontal shots only – very important! Square photos or photos taller than they are wide will not fit our calendar template.
Photos must be taken by you or a family member. No professional photos.

Size matters! The bigger, the better! The higher the resolution the better the chances your photo will be selected as a monthly winner.

How does this work?

One Grand Prize winner will be selected as the cover winner and receive a free calendar.

12 monthly winners and 12 honorable mentions will be selected, each will receive a free calendar.

Got Questions? We’d love to help. Please send them to cpr@copugrescue.org .
