Are you kidding? You haven’t entered yet? You haven’t voted? What’s up with that? Time is running out. ONLY 10 MORE DAYS! All voting ends at 12:00 pm EDT on July 30th.
Seriously — your participation in and voting for contestants is vital to our work, and directly helps us fund the pioneering research we have always sought out and supported. Contributions in the past have helped fund research with: University of Missouri; Purdue University; University of Wisconsin, Madison; University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center; Princeton University for The Canine Mammary Tumor Program; Animal Medical Center and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer; as well as Educational Grants to the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM).
This year, your contributions and donations are going to clinical trials at Missouri and Purdue. (For details on each grant, please follow this link.)
Even as you honor your canine cancer hero by participating in the calendar contest, know you are helping so many others with each vote and each dollar you contribute.
We hope you’ll enter your pup today.
HERE is where you register, so you can get started right away. And thank you.
Who can enter? Anyone with a dog who currently has or has had cancer (living or passed). Dogs who have been entered in prior contests are welcome to enter again.
How does it work? From now until July 30th, register your dog as a participant in the contest. Then upload your best high resolution photo (>2 Megs or higher) and your dog’s story (about one paragraph), and how he or she came to be touched by cancer. You’ll find all the instructions on how to create your dog’s special page during the registration process, but if you have any questions, just email Erich Trapp at: erich@puppyup.org.
Voting begins as soon as you enter. Your $10 registration fee applies as the first 10 votes for your dog. (Votes are only $1.00 each, with a minimum donation of $5.00.) Remember, the sooner you register, the more often you and friends can vote. Don’t wait until the last minute!
For ALL the details on registering and setting up your dog’s page, please follow this link to our blog.
