There can be only one Alpha pooch.
Patch is on a quest to find the Greater Philadelphia area's "Top Dog," and we're leaving it to you to pick the best candidate to represent nine Patch sites in Montgomery County against the rest of the region.
Readers at each of the Montco Patch sites entered dozens of photos of their pups and voted for their favorites through July 3, leaving us nine local winners for the regional competition. Now we're asking you to pick the best of the litter.
In this article's comment section, voice your opinion for which contestant should be named the region's Top Dog and move on to the final round. We'll tally up the votes after the deadline on July 20 and unveil the five regional winners on July 23. Then the winners will face off to see who becomes Greater Philadelphia's Patch’s Top Dog from July 23 to 27. The winner will be announced July 30.
Look for great prizes at both the regional and Greater Philadelphia levels.
To vote: Look for the number in the top right corner of the photo and refer to that in the comments.
