Dreaming Big
Our Biggest Fundraiser of the Year!
Big Floofs ★ Big Hearts ★ Beautiful Stories
You who entered your dogs, rallied friends, voted, bought a calendar or a day, shared a tribute to a beloved pet, and cheered this whole thing on, thank you. And to our amazingly generous sponsors who stepped up to help, thank you too. Your support helps cover the cost of producing the calendar so every dollar raised can go to life-saving surgeries, spays & neuters, puppy shots, and second chances for Great Pyrenees in need.🩵
Thank you, Deborah and Don!

Together, We Raised$31,082!
This is a true blessing in a year that has been especially hard. So many Pyrs have come to us with serious, complicated medical needs, and we have tried with everything we have not to close intake. In the past few weeks, we came frighteningly close.
Because of you, we have more room to keep saying yes, keep providing lifesaving care, and keep our rescue mission moving forward.
A huge floofy shout-out goes to our Cover Sponsor, Kuyrkendall & Company, Inc., and our Month Sponsors, Net's Happy Pets Board & Train and Vickery Place Animal Hospital.
Their generosity covered our calendar production costs, which means 100% of the $31,082 raised can go directly to the dogs.
Please show these wonderful businesses some love. They are generous human beings, devoted Pyr lovers, and the kind of community partners who make rescue possible. 🩵
Every entry, vote, order, and sponsorship helps TGPR say yes to Great Pyrenees at risk in Texas.
Our calendar is both a beautiful collection of stories and also our biggest fundraiser of the year. It's what allows us to make the medical fund whole again, order prevention for a couple more months, and make sure our special needs Pyrs have a place to rest. It's a full year of second chances.
Vet exams, spay-neuters, vaccines, and prevention.
Emergency visits, hospital stays, surgeries, and medications.
Food, supplies, training, and emergency boarding.
Provide education, and resources to owners in crisis.
It's our biggest fundraiser of the year! The contest determines which photos will be in our annual calendar featuring Great Pyrenees, Pyr mixes, and LGD working dogs. Supporters enter photos, vote, reserve special dates, and help raise critical funds for rescue.
Residents of the United States and Canada may enter.
Contest entries are $30 per dog/photo, and entry comes with 5 free votes!
Please submit one color, high-quality digital photo of a Great Pyrenees, Pyr mix, or LGD working dog with the animals they protect. Most phone photos work great if you upload the original photo file in its full size. Avoid screenshots, social media downloads, cropped images, or photos saved from text messages, since those may not print clearly in the calendar. Ideal photo size for best print quality is 3000 x 3900px, this said we'll accept most images 1250 x 1625px or higher.
No. Contest photos may not include people of any age, including adults, teens, children, or infants.
Yes. You may submit one entry per Great Pyrenees or Pyr mix.

$1 = 1 vote! You can literally buy votes, vote as many times as you'd like for your own Pyr, for someone else's Pyr. No limits! Every vote helps Pyrs in shelters get a second chance so encourage your friends and family to join in on the fun!
