Andrew with pets Sash Stories

Entries have now closed. Stay tuned while we select the finalists

Every patient at SASH is special, and we want you to share their story.

Our mission is to educate pet owners about health conditions that could affect pets, and the treatment options modern specialist and emergency veterinary care can provide. With your participation, we hope to help more pets and their families live their best life.

The process

A panel of SASH judges will review all entries and select a short list of 10 SASH Stories to enter a public voting phase. Prizes are up for grabs for 12 of our favourite stories and a grand prize for the story with the most votes from members of the public.
 
Top tips – our judges and voters love to read about:
  • All the wonderful things you love about your pet
  • What made you concerned about your pet
  • Details about the SASH team behind your pet’s story
  • Any information about the treatment your pet had undergone
  • And of course, cute photos! 

Voting opens 9 February 2024 and closes 9 March 2024. The story with the most votes will win 1st prize.

Each voter will go into the draw to win a $100 gift card. 

The winner will be announced on 10th March 2024.
