It's a Dog's Life, After All

As our submission deadline draws to a close at 5 p.m. Wednesday, we thought we would share some footage of the social event that started it all on Sunday morning in Fort Greene Park.

Since then, Patch has received 66 submissions of 49 different dogs—from Lhasa Apsos to Australian Shepherds, of almost every color and size.

Now comes the fun part: Once the top 5 King and Queen canine candidates are selected by ProspectBArk! Dog Walkers, our readers will have the chance to vote for their favorite dogs.

The two dogs voted by you as King and Queen will each receive a prize package worth $600 in sweet treats that include:

A gift basket from ($50), a comprehensive exam and complementary microchip from ($100), a training session from Calm Energy Dog Training ($150), a professional pet photo session from Jenna Leigh Teti Photography ($200) and a staycation from ProspectBark ($100).

Voting will open on Aug. 25 and run until Aug. 29 at 5 p.m.

Stay tuned.
