Win a Year's DOGS NSW Membership

The DOGS NSW Puppy of the Month competition is open to Australian residents only. Anyone who lives in Australia and has a puppy can send in an entry, and DOGS NSW members and non-members are both welcome. Members are asked to include their DOGS NSW membership number with their entry.

The Puppy of the Month competition runs every month, and this round closes on 30 November 2026. DOGS NSW picks one winning puppy each month and announces the winner on its website, with the October 2026 winner being a Golden Retriever named Bob.

Each month the winning puppy's owner can win a year's free DOGS NSW membership, a copy of Dr Karen Hedberg's book, The Dog Owner's Manual, plus ROYAL CANIN products. There is one winner each month, and the winner is chosen on the basis of the cutest entry.

To enter the DOGS NSW Puppy of the Month competition, email a picture of your puppy to the DOGS NSW info address, together with a contact number and your answers to the entry questions. Entrants provide the puppy's name and breed, their own full name, postal and email addresses, social media handles, and their DOGS NSW membership number if they are a member. They also share the puppy's favourite sleeping place, the puppy's favourite trick, such as sit or paw wave, and why their puppy is the best in no more than 10 words. The cutest entry wins.
