2026 Pooch Playoffs: The Battle of the Pass!
Team Jackson vs. Team Teton Valley
Is your pup ready to represent their side of the pass? I’m looking for 32 of the most iconic dogs—16 from Jackson and 16 from Teton—to compete for the title of the "Ulti-Mutt Cutie" in our bracket-style competition!
Not only are we raising $3,200 for PAWS, but this year I am also curating a special Boutique Travel & Legacy Book. I am specifically looking to highlight the incredible stories of our local shelter rescues and the beautiful lives they lead here in the mountains.
Does your pup have what it takes to represent your town and be featured in our upcoming book?
Apply below to join the fun and help us support our local shelter!

What is Pooch Playoffs and How Does it Work?
Do you think you have the Ulti-Mutt Cutie of Teton Valley? We're going to find out while raising money for PAWS!
Pooch Playoffs is a pet portrait competition. Jess Curren Photography donates the proceeds to PAWS, our local animal shelter.

How to Participate
1. Apply to Join the Bracket Click the link below to apply. Because we only have 16 spots for Team Jackson and 16 for Team Teton Valley, we want to make sure your pup is a perfect fit for the competition!
2. After you apply, you'll be prompted to grab a 15-minute spot on my calendar. This is a quick phone call where we can chat about your pup's rescue story, finalize your session date, and plan your image goals.
3. Bring your pup to our boutique pop-up studio for their high-energy, fun-filled portrait session. We’ll capture that specific "look" that makes them a contender for the "Ulti-Mutt Cutie" title!
4. After the session, we’ll meet for your ordering appointment. This is the best part! You’ll see your pup's portraits in a beautiful presentation, choose your favorite for the March madness bracket/keychain, and we can design custom art or book features for your home.
