Contest: Upload Photo of Your Puppy for a Chance to Win

Attention, dog owners: Friday was National Puppy Day—a time to honor man’s proverbial best friend as well as to help save orphaned pups around the world.

In celebration of the annual event, Patch has launched a contest to determine the cutest dog in Eagle Rock. So grab your camera or Smart phone and take a photo of your adorable pet—presuming, of course, you don’t already have a precious shot saved on your computer.

Post the image on this page by uploading it in the photo section. Make sure to include your pet’s name in the caption box. (If you wish, you may mention any other relevant details such as breed, gender and age.)

The cutest dog will be determined by the highest number of readers’ comments about any of the featured dogs. And the owner of the winning pooch will get a $25 Petsmart/Petco gift card.

The contest ends just before midnight on Wednesday, March 28—that is, at 11:59 p.m. We’ll announce the winner Thursday morning.

Editor's Note: The dog you see in the featured photo is Scamper, a two-year-old male Dachshund who keeps Eagle Rock Patch editor Ajay Singh and his family on their toes. (We do think Scamper is very cute—he's smart, too—but we're disqualified from the contest.)
