The 2021 Pet Calendar contest

1st round of voting open now!

Click here to vote for your favorite pets to move on to Round 2!

It's time to choose your favorite pets for the Albuquerque Journal 2021 Pet Calendar!
The first round of voting will determine the finalists for the Pet Calendar Contest.

The top 25 pets will move on to the final round of voting.

Anyone can vote, and there’s no limit on votes cast – so vote early, and vote often! Be sure to campaign for your pet on Facebook & Instagram, or call, text and email your friends to vote!     

Voting starts on Friday, September 25 and lasts until Wednesday, October 28.

The names and photos of all pets entered into the contest will appear online here during the first out of voting

The number of votes will be updated once a week each Sunday
in The Sunday Journal and online Friday morning - afternoon on this website.

Each vote for your favorites will cost $1 per vote, with a minimum of 5 votes per transaction.  The 5 vote minimum can only apply to one pet at a time.

And best yet, we will share 10% of all voting proceeds with Lap Dog Rescue and Almost Home New Mexico to help less fortunate pets in our community. 

The names and photos of the top 25 pets will appear online during the final round of voting, October 30 - November 22. The 13 pets with the most votes at the end of final round voting will become the models for our 2021 calendar, published inside The Sunday Journal on December 27, 2020.
