Upload a Photo of That Special Dog in Your Life, Win $25 Gift Certificate

Some dogs are almost human, others are pure canines. Yet, no matter how many dogs you have in your life, there is always that one special dog. 

If you've taken a great picture of your dog, share it with Patch and your neighbors.

Let us know in the caption: the name of your dog, your name, what town you're from and any other information you think we should know.

This is part of Patch’s Spring Picture of the Week series, where we’re asking you for your best pictures on a certain topic each week.

We’ve added a little incentive. The winning submission will get a $25 gift card, plus bragging rights.

We’ll be taking photo submissions each week from 5 a.m. Monday through noon Friday. Voting will begin at 4 a.m. Saturday and end at 9 a.m. Monday, so make sure to check back over the weekend to vote for your favorite picture.

To upload your photo, just click on the "Upload Photos and Videos" button. If you have more questions, click here to check out our tutorial on uploading photos and videos to Patch.
