Valley Humane Society Pet Photo Contest: 'Is Spot Hot…or Not?'

Information from Valley Humane Society—

Both the decidedly dapper and the happily homely are invited to enter Valley Humane Society’s (VHS) 2013 online pet photo contest, Is Spot Hot…or Not? Opening for entries at 12:01 am on Wednesday, October 9, 2013, the contest is a place for pet lovers to show off their beloved companions and to illustrate our belief that every pet is lovable and worthy of being loved.

Entry is free and is accessible at valleyhumane.org. Contest winners will be determined by public voting. Votes cost $1 each with a minimum donation of $5, or five votes (votes can be split among multiple entries). Entrants are encouraged to share their pet’s picture through email, Facebook, Twitter, and other social media sites to enlist the support of friends and family and help their pet win. Every dollar funds VHS programs, including the rescue and rehabilitation of cats and dogs awaiting the love and security of their own forever home. 

The contest runs from 12:01 am on Wednesday, October 9, 2013 through 11:59 pm on Wednesday, October 30, 2013 with Wednesday, October 23, 2013 at 12 noon the deadline for entries. Complete rules available through valleyhumane.org. Prize packages will be given to the first, second, and third place winners as determined by public voting. Among the prizes are a Pet Food Express “My Mutt” poster, a private wine tasting at Concannon Vineyard for eight, a personal shopper experience for four at Nordstrom, gift cards, and public recognition of the winners in the Pleasanton Weekly. 

One thing we’re sure of: whether your pet is camera-ready or has a face only a pet parent could love, they are undoubtedly adored (and quite possibly spoiled)! Join VHS for this fun photo contest by entering your own companion today or vote for another at valleyhumane.org.
