PRESS RELEASE: Announcing the Running of the Sunshine Coast Dog Awards

Calling all Sunshine Coast dog owners – does your dog have what it takes to be crowned Top Dog on the Sunshine Coast? Founder and dog lover, Charlotte Bryan, announces the commencement of the Sunshine Coast Dog Awards, a fun online competition for local dog owners that runs from 5th August through to 26th August (International Dog Day).

As Charlotte says: “Dogs are often our best friends. This is certainly true in my case. The Sunshine Coast Dog Awards are a fun way for all of us to show off our best friends, support local businesses and be in to win some fantastic prizes.”

The competition boasts 4 categories, so there’s bound to be a category to suit your pooch:
1. Sunshine Coast’s Most Handsome Dog:

2. Sunshine Coast’s Prettiest Dog:

3. Sunshine Coast’s Cutest Puppy:

4. Sunshine Coast’s Best Dog Trick:

Could your dog be crowned winner of one of these categories? If yes, enter them at https://www.facebook.com/dogawards/ and get your friends to vote.

The Sunshine Coast Dog Awards is a People’s Choice competition hosted on Facebook and entry is free. To enter, all dog owners need to do is upload a photo of their pooch (or a short video for the Best Trick category) and state their dog’s name and the suburb in which they live. To win, your dog must get the most ‘votes’ (likes/‘thumbs up’) on their photo – no other reactions (including the love or ‘heart’ reaction) will be counted in the final tally.
Only one post and one photo per dog, per category is allowed – you are allowed to enter your pooch in two categories; Best Trick and another. To be eligible to enter, you must be currently living on the Sunshine Coast. Only female dogs may be entered into the Sunshine Coast’s Prettiest Dog category and only male dogs can be entered into the Sunshine Coast’s Most Handsome Dog category. Puppies entered in to the Cutest Puppy category must be less than 6 months old.
