Have a photogenic pet? Ever wanted to show off the adorableness of your furry friend? Submit your pet’s photo to The Heritage Humane Society’s 2025 Hello Summer Pet Photo Contest and get the most votes to win a featured spot in the 2026 Hello Summer Pet Photo Contest Calendar! From May 19 to June 16, pet lovers have the chance to showcase their beloved companions in a competition that helps homeless pets in need.
The top 13 photos with the most votes when the contest ends on June 16 will enjoy a complimentary photo session with Sweet Ellie Photography. The 1st place winner will be the cover of the calendar. The 2nd – 13th place winners will each receive a month in the calendar. Each vote is only $1 (required minimum of 5 votes) and 100% of the proceeds benefit the sheltered animals at The Heritage Humane Society.
Entries and voting open at 7 AM on Monday, May 19, and close at 5 PM on Monday, June 16. Mini prizes will be awarded at 5 PM each Friday during the contest to the top voted pet. You can only win one mini prize. If the same pet is the top voted winner for more than one week, the mini prize will go to the next highest voted pet.
All entrants will receive information on the 2026 Hello Summer Pet Photo Contest Calendar after the photo sessions are completed and the calendar is created.
