Sometimes people only hear about our calendar contest at the last minute, when it’s much too late to enter. So is the case with this beautiful boy. I got Technical Sergeant Claudia Sanchez’s entry just as the last votes were being counted, and my heart sank because he missed the contest. But you must meet Duke and read a bit of his story. Remember...

Thank You!

Featured Pup — Abby Knoche

Posted by on Aug 4, 2012 in Calendar Contests

Abby Knoche is one of our featured pups for the 2 Million Dogs’ 2013 Cancer Can’t Keep a Good Dog Down calendar contest.

Her original owners never had her spayed and by May of 2010 she had developed breast cancer, something our vet warned us could happen when...

What? Say it isn’t so!
