Cutest Finalists Of Animal Friends Comedy Pet Photo Awards 2021 – Design You Trust

Cutest Finalists Of Animal Friends Comedy Pet Photo Awards 2021

This global funny pet photo competition was created by Paul Joynson-Hicks and Tom Sullam to celebrate the positive and vital role that pets can have in our lives and to encourage and raise awareness about animal welfare in general, by supporting a different grassroots charity each year.

Thanks to its partnership with Animals Friends Insurance, this year the competition will be donating £10,000 to Animal Support Angels a very special animal welfare charity that supports pets and pet owners by providing food, shelter, warmth, veterinary support, re-homing and animal welfare care to relieve the suffering of animals.

Hugo the Photobomber! by Chloe Beck
“This is my best friend Faith and her husband Alex… And their cheeky Sproodle, Hugo. Faith wanted a photograph to mark a special occasion – her first outing after shielding at home for 14 months. Hugo jumped into the frame at just the right moment! He’s a lockdown pup, so he hasn’t quite gotten used to the excitement of being around other people yet hehe 🙂”


Boing by Christine Johnson

Caught red-pawed by Danielle Wood
“This is my very mischievous Bengal cat, Bailey! On this particular day I was trying to put away the washing but he would do whatever it took to get those all important belly rubs!”


Never ending Poodle by Darren Hall
“This is Ted the Poodle. I’m pretty sure he has never seen the film but the amount of people who comment that he looks like Falkor from Never ending story would suggest he may be a fan.”


Cheeeese! by David Poznanter

Crazy in love with fall by Diana Jill Mehner

Home skooling by Jacki Gordon
“Ollie, highly focused on what else he can learn from a dog behaviourist’s website (which, as you can see, features a mugshot of him). While Ollie is committed to ongoing personal development, he’s not quite mastered how to use the mouse , but – being a very smart border collie – that’s just a matter of time……”


“…That was a good one!!” by Jakub Gojda
“This photo was taken by accident during the photography of my ex-girlfriend with her beloved mare. For this cheerful moment, I thank the fly that sat on the horse’s nose and he instinctively shook his head. And so it seems that the humor between a horse and a woman is definitely not missing :)).”

Muttford and Chum by Luke O’Brien
“Losing the opportunity to play with my human band mates during lockdown, Flint my rescue dog soon taught me that we didn’t just have sharp bones in common, but musical ones too. He soon became the perfect substitute for a collaborative stomp up at home, so much so that we felt we deserved our own band name (Muttford and Chum). With my camera set up remotely during this shoot, I think it’s fair to say that the image is proof that his conviction as a performer matches my own – well, we were covering “treats and tugs and dinner bowls” by Ian Puli and the Boneheads.”

They were curious about everything. This is the day they discovered their own shadow. It was hilarious to see them wondering and exploring that “dark thing” that was moving with them !”
