If a submitted photo wins the contest but does not meet print calendar requirements, we will contact you asking for an eligible photo. If a large enough photo can not be provided, a new color portrait will be taken by Woods Humane Society and the photograph will become a month spread in the 2026 calendar and the next runner-up will be selected for the 2025 calendar.
To check your photo size, go to https://www.pictorem.com/checkprintsize.html

Once your file has uploaded, scroll down to the Print Size Recommendations. Look for the ppi associated with your photo when printed to at least 12” x 12” in size. A ppi of 250 or more means your photo is print quality for the calendar.
