How It Works
Enter, the draw closes, we go live, the prize ships.
The cycle
Enter → close → draw → ship.
You enter
Pick how many entries you want and take your numbered slots in this month’s draw.
We fill the draw
Once the board reaches 75 entries, the drawing is guaranteed to happen.
We draw live
On the first of the month, on video, using a seed we published in advance.
You win
Winner gets the prize and we ship it to their door, on us.
Every Working Dog Draw runs the same way, every month, with nothing hidden.
Where your entry goes. When you enter, you are assigned a numbered slot in the current draw — an actual number, from 1 to 100, that you can see on the board. That number is yours until the draw is settled. If you take three entries, you get three separate numbers and three separate chances.
How the winner is selected. Before the entry period closes we publish a hash of the random seed we will use. After the period closes we draw the winning number live on video, then publish the seed itself. Anyone can check that the seed matches the hash we posted beforehand, which means the result could not have been chosen after we saw who entered.
What happens if the draw does not fill. Seventy-five entries is the floor. If a draw closes below it, it is cancelled and every paid entry is refunded in full — no rollover, no store credit.
What happens if you win. We call and email you within three business days. You confirm your shipping address, we ship the prize at our expense, and you get to be in the video for next month's draw if you want to be.
Two ways in, one pool.
Paid entry and free mail-in entry go into the same set of numbered slots with identical odds. Paying does not improve your chances; it just saves you a stamp. Both methods are spelled out in the Official Rules.
