Frequently Asked Questions
I was already registered for 2020. Now what?
If you had registered for the 2020 conference, you probably remember that we automatically moved your registration to 2021, due to the pandemic postponing the conference. Since we are still dealing with the pandemic, we will automatically move your registration once again to the in-person 2022 conference. In addition, you will also receive registration to the 2021 Bark-A-Lounger virtual conference, FREE OF CHARGE. You do not need to do anything! We will send access information as the conference gets closer.
I am registered but can no longer attend. What do I do?
The Bark-A-Lounger virtual conference will allow access to all the keynote speakers beyond the conference dates, depending upon your level of registration (30 days or through the end of 2021). If this doesn't resolve your conflict, you are welcome to sell your registration to someone else. Though we can't offer refunds, we are happy to transfer registrations from one person to another. Please note the $50 transfer fee to cover the costs of this service.
I can't remember what I signed up for. Can you help?
Of course! Simply email Lisa (lisa@animalimagemakers.com) and she'll get your registration information resent.
What if I need to make changes to my registration details?
If you moved or need to update a t-shirt size or meal selection, for example, send an email to lisa@animalimagemakers.com and Lisa will get your information up to date. We definitely want to be sure we have current contact information for you as we will be sending out 2021 access info (and VIPs will get a special box in the mail!).
Do I need to download some software to be ready for the Bark-A-Lounger conference?
Nope! No downloads necessary. It is important to us to make it easy for you to take part. We are working with a very cool company to get the conference online for you, and everything will stream directly though their service.
If I only register for Bark-a-lounger, can I add the 2022 conference later!
There are only 75 VIP tickets available, so if you're interested in the 2022 in-person conference, I would recommend you register now so you don't miss out. The VIP tickets are the best value you will find for both 2021+2022 conferences. However, you will have the option to register for just 2022 later if you choose to wait (and if there are still tickets available).
