It's been an amazing journey since 2009 making these calendars almost every year to raise funds for the beneficiary organisations dedicated to help the doggies and animals in need of help and most important, in need of a loving family. I am grateful I have played an indirect part in all these. 

Again, without these supporters, this little project of mine will not be able to materialise, so another big thank you to each of them:

* the sponsors of each month in the past 15 calendars with their cuteness-overload doggies posing as the calendar's models;

* @Idol Printing for assisting me in almost all of these calendar projects and ensuring top notch printing quality;

* Corporate sponsors in the past 15 years including @Megan's Kitchen, @Mega Pet, @Whiskas & Paws, @VSH, @Valley Veterinary Centre,  @Brown's Tailor, @Rock Tone Music, @Barkyard, @Green Common, @Acumen Paper @Clubstring

* Special contributors:

Melissa @paintinks_by_melt for contributing to the illustrations on the 2021 calendar

Ann @annchoi photography for assisting in photoshoot for 2 calendar projects

Howard @obesephotography for handling the photoshoot for the 2025 calendar

and all of you who purchased the calendars and made a donation via this calendar project.

Wishing all of you and all the doggies in this world, good health, love and happiness.

               

 

2025 LOVE OUR DOGS Charity Calendar

 

It is with great delight to inform the fans and supporters of LOVE OUR DOGS Charity Calendar that the 2025 calendar (the 16th anniversary project!) will be ready for your purchase in late September @ loveourdogscalendar !!💝

Similar to previous year, due to workload on hand, I have been struggling whether to continue this project or not. But perhaps due to some kind of "mission" idea in my mind, I tried to see how I can carve out some work to another person and still be able to do the rest and continue with this charity project. Then I DM a pet photographer I followed for a while and see if he's willing to help out on photography part and we clicked in an instance! @ obesephotography - HOWARD, a big thank you! Without you, I may not be able to continue with this project.🙏

Howard completed the photography sessions with all 12 monthly sponsors in lightning speed and in a superior quality! With his photos, I found time to complete the editing and worked out the design and printing details with @idolprinting. Thanks to Pam and Stephanie @idolprinting, the details of the printing job also completed as per schedule.😊

Needless to say, THANK YOU to all the 12 months sponsors for your kind-heartedness and  sponsorship and making time to take your furry family members to photoshoot. All of your doggies are just adorable and cuteness overload. A few of them are newly featured doggies, if you can map them out and welcome to be stars of LOVE OUR DOGS calendar! :)

THANK YOU also to my commercial sponsors - @megapets, @whiskasnpaws, @brownstailor, @moguu, @rocktone @valleyvet, @meganskitchen, @luckyoffices.🙏
