National Purebred Dog Day is delighted to welcome the return of PureDogTalk as a photo contest sponsor for 2021. Filling a niche in the podcast market of purebred dog owners, each episode of PureDogTalk is eagerly awaited as we listen in on conversations between dog people about dogs.

As Laura Reeves, host of PureDogTalk, explains: Our dogs talk to us and to each other every day using their eyes, ears, voices, tails and body position.

The Challenge: Your photo submission should show dogs communicating with each other or with their humans. Dog communication can be nuanced, so impress our judges by thinking outside the box with this challenge.

This contest is open to North America. Photographers are allowed to enter four contests, entering this one entitles you to enter three more;

The prize: PureDogTalk Basket with a “How to Stack Your Dog” CD (one of only two remaining!) a PDT ringside towel and a PDT Coffee mug!
