The Winners of the 2021 Australian Pawtrait Prize Competition

At Rufus & Coco, we believe that we can truly improve humanity one pet at a time and one way to show this is for us to celebrate the love that Australians have for their pets. Hence, the Australian Pawtrait Prize Competition was born and the search for Australia's Next Top Dog or Cat took centerstage.

After a month, 6 exciting categories, over 3,000 pawsome entries, and $12,000 worth of prizes...we present you the winners for this year's Australian Pawtrait Prize Competition!
