We all love showing off our gorgeous poultry on BYC, but what about those critters with paws who find their way into our hearts, as well as our homes? Whether they have little tiny paws or giant paws, we want to see them! So grab your best friend with paws and your camera and show us your pets with paws for a chance to win!

There will be three winners, and each will receive a copy of the beautiful BYC 2026 Calendar!

A bit older, yes, 11. The powder sugar face gets me every time! I got her one of the best years of my life. I just finished my associates degree and got a grown up job, bought my first new car and she was a gift from my fiance that year. Our last dachshund lived to 18, so maybe we will be that lucky again!

We thought part border collie, too, probably! He must think he’s a smol boy, he always sits in the little dog’s bed, despite having his own.

18 years is amazing. She was the perfect gift. I'd prefer a dog over any other gift. :)

It's always adorable when dogs curl up in the little bed.
