“The pet casting call is one of our favorite times of year because we get to see thousands of faces from our nationwide family,” said Joe Dent, vice president and U.S. general manager for Pet Valu. “While only 13 pets will be selected as stars in the 2018 calendar, every animal’s a winner, with the proceeds going toward fighting animal cruelty.”

Winning pictures will be unveiled later this year in the 2018 calendar, which will be in Pet Valu stores this November. When the calendars debut, each winner is celebrated as a pet celebrity at their local Pet Valu store with a special Pawtograph Party, at which the pet signs calendars for customers.
