Join the fun and enter your best pal in our year-long photo contest to pick a Cairn of the Year. 

About the Contest

Enter early. You can enter the contest any time during the year but the longer your Cairn is available for voting, the more opportunities she or he will have to be seen and collect votes.

Enter often. Because it's not uncommon to have more than one Cairn in a household you can enter all of your Cairn pals, up to four dogs. Sorry fifth Cairn, you'll have to enter next year.

Entry is free. Well free of monetary cost. If you are not already registered you will have to invest a minute of your time to register on the site.

Please set the title of your entry to the name of your dog.

Vote early and often. You can change your votes right up until the moment the contest ends (11:59 PM PST on 12/31/20).

You can vote for up to four entries and of course you can vote for your own dog. We encourage you to spread the love around.

Pride is the Prize

The prize is nothing more than bragging rights,  a silly trophy icon, and a place in our contest Hall of Fame.
