FAQs
Can anyone enter?
Yes, anyone can enter. Your dog doesn't have to be a rescue. All dachshund and dachshunds mixes are eligible regardless of where they came from. But, your dog must be a purebred dachshund or a dachshund mix. If you enter a dachshund mix, we must be able to see the dachshund influence in your dog.
Does my dog have to be a show dog?
Absolutely not! This is not a competition where the dog is judged according to the dachshund standard like a regular dog show. There is no prancing around and you don't have to worry if your dog isn't the best looking dog around. We are judging your dog on how well you present them to us in a picture. Does your picture have a nice background? Is the picture clear and with good lighting. Does it make your dog looks it's best? Take time to get a good picture and take many. Then choose the one that you feel will make him a winner! Visit "What makes a good picture" to see suggestions on how to take a good picture.
Can I enter my dog in more than one class?
Yes you can. You may want to enter your dog in it's age class but also in the costume, or "just plain cute" class. Just pay separately for each class and enter two forms with the picture that goes with each entry.
When does my entry have to be in and when will I know if I won?
All entries MUST be in by midnight April 30, 2017. The winner will be announced May 6, 2017.
If I win, how will I receive my prize?
If you win, you will be notified and you'll verify your address so we can mail it to you.
