What the Finalists have Already Won and What This Means

All Finalists receive a Blogger Full Conference Pass to the BlogPaws 2016 Conference, taking place at the beautiful Sheraton Grand at Wild Horse Pass Resort & Spa, June 23-25. They’ll also get Red Carpet treatment and recognition at the Awards Ceremony on Saturday evening, and of course the chance to be announced as the Winner in their categories!

The Winners will receive the coveted Nose-to-Nose trophy on stage during the live-streamed awards gala, honored status among their peers, media attention, as well as a package of other prizes TBD.

Each category is judged by a distinguished panel of professionals and not by popular vote. The influence of pet bloggers is growing and the BlogPaws community is leading the way.
