The moment is finally here for pet lovers across Australia: the 2026 Paws for Sophie calendar is now available for pre-order!
This isn't just a beautiful collection of heart-warming pet portraits; it's a critical lifeline for the people who care for our own furry family members. Every purchase directly supports Sophie’s Legacy, a recognised charity dedicated to tackling the mental health crisis within the veterinary industry.
The calendar grew out of a fantastic community photo contest, spearheaded by Allira Fontana Photography, which invited pet owners to enter their beloved companions for a spot in the calendar.

The public then voted on their favourites, turning a fun, local initiative into a major fundraiser. The effort has already raised over $3,700 for the cause! Now, with a goal of $5,000, pre-ordering your copy is the final step to help them reach that target.
The Silent Crisis Facing Our Vets
The Paws for Sophie initiative is dedicated to the legacy of Dr. Sophie Putland, a brilliant young veterinarian who tragically lost her life while working in the profession she loved. Her story highlights the immense and often unbearable pressures, long hours, compassion fatigue, and stress that veterinarians and vet staff endure daily.
Sophie’s Legacy works tirelessly to create safer, more supportive workplaces. They raise essential awareness about mental health challenges and advocate for lasting, positive change across the industry. When you flip through the calendar's gorgeous photos of happy, healthy pets, you’re directly helping the professionals who make those precious moments possible.
Get Your Copy and Spread the Love
The finished 2026 Paws for Sophie calendar features 13 winning pets from the community, each captured in stunning professional photo sessions by Allira Fontana Photography. It’s a joyful, year-long celebration of the pet-owner bond.
Ready to fill your home with beautiful pets while making a genuine difference?
