And the Winner Is … Rufio!

The local pooch is the winner of our National Dog Day photo contest.

The results are in, and the winner of Romeoville Patch’s photo contest is a patriotic pooch named Rufio.

The picture of the Neapolitan mastiff and his owner, Kathryn Dunlap of Plainfield, both decked out in red, white and blue, was the top vote-getter. The human/canine duo wins a $25 gift card to and some free Patch swag.

Thanks to all those who participated in the contest. We loved all the photos of our readers and their four-legged friends.
