2026 NAPS Pudelpointer Calendar Contest
This is the official 2026 Pudelpointer Calendar Contest.
You may submit as many photos as you would like and may vote for as many submissions as you wish. You are not required to be a NAPS member to participate in the contest.
When submitting a photo, you will need to fill out some basic information such as Registered Name, Call Name, and Category. You will be required to put a Title on your photo, you can enter a description or just use your dogs name.
Categories:
- Pointing/Upland
- Retrieving/Waterfowl
- Puppy/Testing/Training
- Miscellaneous
The recipient with the highest number of votes in each category, with a qualifying photo, will win. The owner of the photo used for each month will receive a free calendar. The recipient with the highest number of votes total, will receive a one year NAPS Membership and $30.00 credit towards merchandise in the NAPS Shop. To avoid order bias, submissions will shuffle in a randomized order.
This year the contest will have a submission period followed by a voting period. This will allow the voter to view all submissions and vote for their favorites in one session. Voters are allowed and encouraged to vote for as many photos as they like.
*Note: Submissions should be focused on the dog(s) at work, not the handler. Photos need to be clear, sharp, and large enough to accommodate a calendar format in order to be published. Blurry / low resolution photos are subject to being excluded from the calendar. Previously submitted images that have been used as a monthly winner are no longer eligible to represent a month in the 2026 calendar edition.
