TROWBRIDGE shop Pet Planet will be offering animal owners an opportunity to win a large photo of their pet and a £50 voucher as part of a free Pet of the Year Competition on September 19.

The competition, which will run from 10am-4pm at Pet Plant in Castle Street, will be free for pet owners to enter their animals, with entrants asked to choose their favourite shot of their pet.

This will then be entered into the competition with a chance of winning a £50 gift voucher for Pet Planet and a large photo of their pet. There is no appointment necessary.

Photographer Graham Parker will be taking the photographs, with the winner to be announced on the Facebook pages for Pet Planet and The Pet Photographer after the judging has taken place four weeks after completion date.

Mr Parker said: “It will be a free photo shoot in Pet Planet and we are welcoming anyone with a pet. There is no appointment necessary, but the photos will not take long.

“After the shots have been processed, those who have entered their pets will come back and choose their favourite shot to be entered into the competition.

“They will then have a chance to win a £50 voucher and a large photo of their pet. All the other photos will be available to be purchased after the event, but if someone doesn’t want a photo then the whole thing is free.

“I even had someone ask whether they could bring their snake along the other day, which I said was absolutely fine. It is open to any pets and it should be a great day.”
