Dog of the Triangle Calendar Contest

Now is your chance to be part of my biggest fundraiser! I’ve been doing the calendar contest since 2021 and after taking a break from it last year, we are back! This year the 2026 calendar will benefit Pawsitively pugs.

About Pawsitively Pugs

Pawsitively pugs is a small rescue that focuses on helping pugs no matter their age or medical condition. You can learn more about the rescue by checking out their website HERE.

I love working with this rescue; the founder, Renee is truly dedicated to the pugs she serves, Since this is a small nonprofit rescue, there are no paid staff so all funds go directly to helping local pugs in need. Another reason to support smaller rescues in our area is because the dollars really go a long way and make the bigggest impact. My goal for this calendar contest is to raise $10,000. That amount of money would mean the world to Pawsitively Pugs Rescue.

You can join in the cause by entering the Dogs of the Triangle Calendar contest. Read below to find out how
