Pure Dog Talk’s Cyber Sweepstakes is an opportunity for FUN and FUNdraising for members of the purebred dog community whose livelihoods have been impacted by the cancellation of events due to the global pandemic.
We will run regular competitions while we are all shutdown, and perhaps into the future.

- 50% to the PureDogTalk Fund for microgrants to members of the purebred dog community impacted by the current shutdowns.
- 50% to the winners.
