Starting from scratch, our team will find and select a puppy from a reputable, thoroughly vetted breeder. We’ll document the entire journey from the first phone call with the breeder all the way through a full raise-and-train program and share it with our community in real time.
At the end of the program, one lucky community member will receive this fully trained dog. No gimmicks. Just a dog that’s truly ready to come home.
You’re Not Just Watching. You’re Going to Be a Part of It!
This isn’t a show you sit back and watch. Our community will have a real voice in shaping this puppy’s journey, including decisions such as:
Voting on whether we get a male or female
Choosing the puppy’s color
Naming the puppy
Deciding what tricks we teach and watching us teach them
Choosing the training language (German, French, Dutch, and more)
Deciding whether we introduce protection training
Watching behind-the-scenes training sessions from Day 1!

ONE WINNER DRAWN
Shortly after the entry window closes, a winner will be chosen! The more you invest in your dog's training, the more chances you have to win!

Simple, every $1 you spend on any DIYK9 course or membership between May 15 and September 15, 2026 earns you one entry. Buy a $97 course? That's 97 entries. Pay monthly or annually for your membership? Every dollar of that counts too when spent between May 15 and September 15, 2026. There's no cap, so the more you invest in your training, the more chances you have to win.
Unfortunately no, only purchases made between May 15 and September 15, 2026 are eligible for entries. Mark your calendar and make sure any courses or memberships you've been eyeing are purchased during the entry window.
No purchase is necessary to enter or win. A free alternate method of entry (AMOE) is available. See the full Terms & Conditions for details on how to submit a no-purchase entry.
The sweepstakes is open to legal residents of the United States who are 18 years of age or older at the time of entry. Employees of DIYK9 and their immediate family members are not eligible. See the full Terms & Conditions for complete eligibility rules.
One grand prize winner will have their choice of two options: $25,000 cash, or a $50,000 voucher that can be used to either purchase the Build-A-Puppy dog outright or apply toward professional training for a dog you already own. The choice is entirely yours.
The drawing will take place on or around September 21, 2026 once the entry window closes on September 15, 2026. One winner will be selected at random from all eligible entries. The odds of winning depend on the total number of entries received. The winner will be contacted via the information provided at entry.
The voucher can be used to purchase the Build-A-Puppy dog or to fund professional training through DIYK9 for a dog (or dogs) you already own. Breed restrictions and full voucher terms will be outlined in the Terms & Conditions. If you have a specific situation in mind, reach out and we'll walk you through it.
All federal, state, and local taxes on the prize are the sole responsibility of the winner. We strongly recommend consulting a tax professional before accepting either prize option. Full details are in the Terms & Conditions.
