Petmania, along with sponsors BETA, has launched the hugely popular Puppy of the Year Competition for 2020. The competition will be run entirely online for 2020, with €1,500 worth of prizes to be won by one very lucky puppy. Entries are open from Monday 28th September online at www.petmania.ie. Adorable pooches have just three weeks to enter the competition to be in with a chance of being named Petmania Puppy of the Year.
To enter pet parents simply fill out a short online form telling us about the pet and add a cute puppy-pic before midnight on Sunday 18thOctober. Once all entries have been received and verified, the online voting will begin! The nation’s pets will battle it out to be named in the Top Five Puppies representing each local Petmania Store and Grooming Studio.
Each of the puppy finalists will receive a qualifier’s rosette and gift from the competition partner, BETA, and will move forward into round two. Petmania will open a public voting system and the puppy with the most votes will be named Puppy of the Year for their region and go forward to the grand final. The chosen finalists from across Ireland, will then be invited to submit some additional photos and videos online to the judging panel, who will choose the overall winner. The winner of the Petmania Puppy of the Year 2020 will be announced via Petmania’s social media channels on Friday 20th November 2020.

Pumba – Top of the Pups 2019
Seven month old, blind Chow Chow, Pumba from Tralee was last year’s Puppy of the Year. His proud owner Catriona Dowling said,
“Winning Petmania’s 2019 Puppy of the Year was an immensely enjoyable experience. I would encourage all dog owners to apply for this competition as It was nothing short of an honour to be the title holder. Aside from the awesome prizes like free grooming & free food for an entire year, their genuine interest in my welfare made being associated with the company so special. I became a local celebrity and featured in advertising campaigns over the past 12 months. The time draws closer to hand my title over for another well deserving puppy to bask in the limelight. I wish every single participant the very best of luck!”
