The state of emergency declared for #tropicalstormisaias caused us to reschedule one of our biggest annual fundraisers.

After a week of laying in the fetal position, crying uncontrollably, and a few intensive teletherapy session with our counselor, we’re finally ready to talk about it. *deep breath* It’s not about the gazillion hours of event prep that we won’t get back. It’s not about the zillion pounds we will gain from eating the trick-or-treat candy we bought for you (j/k you’ll have a side of candy corn with your candy cane in December 🤪). It’s… about… the… dang… loose… kneecaps. We’ve literally got patellas luxating left and right over here (physiology joke 😬), and we needed to raise some surgery funds! So, the costume contest that was supposed to be in person? Yeah, it’s online now. Great news if you’re outside of Georgia - you’re already winning! Throw a costume on your dog, snap a pic, and enter! Don’t have the energy to wrestle your dog into a costume this year? Got a pic from last year? The last decade? 🤣 We don’t care, just enter your costumed doggo and help us get these slippery kneecaps pinned down sooner rather than later. To enter, submit a photo and description of your dog in costume to jody@georgiapeachpugrescue.com by Oct 20. Late entries will be accepted, but there will be less time for voting. Voting will go live on Oct 20. Votes are $1, and you may vote as many times as you like. Voting ends Oct 30, at 10:00 pm and winners will be announced on Halloween! Top contenders win category trophies, and the one with the most votes will win a grand prize trophy. We might sneak a little something else into the prize pack but we don’t want you to join for the wrong reasons so 🤐. Do you like our hurricane costume in the graphic? Yeah, we’re not bitter AT ALL. *logs into teletherapy*
