QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked
How can my dog be featured in the book?
Applications open in February 2027 and are free to submit. If your dog is selected, there's a $149 selection fee with $100 of that going directly to Longleaf Animal Rescue. The selection fee includes a complimentary petite session for each applicant with an option to upgrade to a full session for an additional $99.
What is the cover contest?
Once the featured dogs for the book are chosen, all of them go head-to-head on a live voting platform for the front and back cover spots. Friends and family vote, and every vote benefits Longleaf Animal Rescue.
Where does the money go?
$100 of each selection fee, cover contest vote, and a portion of every book sold benefits Longleaf Animal Rescue — in three stages, from application through the launch celebration. This project exists to raise money for rescue, not just to sell a book.
When does the book release?
The projects runs through 2027 with the book releasing in Autumn 2027 — timed for holiday gifting, a launch celebration, and year-end giving.
Can my business sponsor the project?
Yes — any local business is welcome, not just pet-related ones. To keep it meaningful, sponsorship is limited to one business per industry (one realtor, one groomer, one law firm, and so on). Sponsors are recognized inside the book and at the launch event. Reach out to inquire.
