Have you and your dog climbed a mountain? Gone swimming in a lake? Ran a race or dressed up for Halloween? If so, we hope you have the photos to prove it. And you just may have the best one in Grass Valley!

The Union gives you a way to find out - by posting a picture of you and your pooch and letting the voters decide.

The 2012 Me & My Dog Photo Contest is now live and we are currently accepting photo submissions of the best photos of you and your pooch!

Once you upload your photo of You and Fido for our voters to see, go get your family and friends to vote for you and your dog. If you don't have a photo, or a dog, you can still go online to view the photos and vote for your favorites. Submissions and voting are accepted online only.

The photo with the most votes by the end of the contest on October 15th will have the ability to pamper their pooches with a great gift basket from our contest sponsors!.

Good luck!
