Get ready to capture the essence of your beloved fur baby in a spectacular way. Shay Riccio, the renowned pet photographer behind Furbaby Photography, is thrilled to announce her first-ever fundraiser in collaboration with All Aboard Animal Rescue in Fort Collins. This exciting initiative aims to raise a whopping $10,000 to support the noble endeavors of this life-saving organization.
Animal enthusiasts from across Colorado are invited to showcase their pets of all species in this thrilling online contest. The top 13 grand prize winners will have the honor of being photographed by Furbaby Photography during a professional on-location session.
To participate, simply submit a photo of your pet along with a $5 entry fee (which goes directly to All Aboard Animal Rescue), share your pet’s entry with friends and family and encourage them to vote ($1= 1 vote). The 13 most vote-getters win. These stunning portraits will grace the coveted pages of the 2025 Furbabies of the Rockies Pet Calendar, with the highest vote-getter securing the prestigious cover spot. Entries and votes will be accepted from May 15-June 22, 2024.
Thanks to the generous support of several Northern Colorado-based small businesses, participants can look forward to weekly mini-contest prizes worth nearly $500, adding an extra dose of excitement and encouraging even greater participation.
Shay Riccio expresses her gratitude for the overwhelming community support: “We are thrilled to have the backing of 13 local small businesses for our contest, offering some enticing mini-contest prizes. The enthusiastic support for All Aboard Animal Rescue and our calendar contest energizes participants and elevates this virtual fundraiser to new heights of excitement.”
Copies of the highly anticipated 2025 Furbabies of The Rockies Pet Calendar will be available in late September 2024, featuring the enchanting portraits of all 13 grand prize winners captured by Shay Riccio herself.
