FAQS
Have questions about the contest or if your animal qualifies? Check out our frequently asked questions below!
What does it mean to be a rescue animal?
A rescue animal is a pet who was adopted from a shelter, foster program, rescue group, or rehomed from an unsafe or uncertain situation. Rescue animals often have stories of courage, kindness, resilience, and second chances — which is what inspires the world of Rescue Legends.
How does an animal qualify to be a rescue animal?
If your pet was adopted or rescued — whether from a shelter, foster care, the street, or another difficult situation — they qualify. Rescue journeys come in many forms, and every path to safety matters.
What kind of animals can be Rescue Legends?
We welcome all kinds of species!
Can I submit my rescue pet more than once?
No need to reapply!
We keep all submissions on file for future consideration, so if your pet isn’t selected right away, their application may still be reviewed in future rounds. To help us stay organized, we do not accept multiple applications for the same pet unless we specifically reach out for updated information.
What makes a good application entry?
The best applications help us really understand your pet — their journey, personality, and what makes them special.
Clear photos, a video of your pet, hand-drawn Legend picture, and details about your pet’s story and traits are the most helpful.
Who can submit a application for their pet?
Anyone is welcome to apply by sharing their rescue pet’s story. Families, individuals, and caregivers may submit an application.
Rescue Legends is designed for children ages 6–12, so stories and game content are created with young audiences in mind.
What happens if my animal is chosen?
If selected, your pet may become an official Rescue Legend, featured as part of the Rescue Legends world and help support future animals in need. This could include appearing in the card game and, for some Legends, inspiring adventure stories or other creative content.
Not every Rescue Legend will receive a full story, and stories are developed and released separately at Rescue Legends’ discretion.
If your pet is selected, we’ll reach out to you directly with next steps and a special way to celebrate your animal.
Does it cost anything to enter?
Nope! Submitting an application for your rescue is completely free.
Can I submit for more than one pet?
Absolutely! If you’ve given love and a home to more than one rescue, we want to hear about all of them.
Will I be notified if my pet is selected?
Yes! If your pet is selected, we’ll contact you directly using the email provided on the application.
Because of the number of submissions we receive, we may not be able to notify families individually if a pet is not selected right away.
